New GOC in 58 Division Assumes Office

Major General Sudath Perera, the newly-appointed General Officer Commanding (GOC) in the 58 Division assumed office as the 11th GOC during a simple ceremony at the 58 Division Headquarters in Boossa, Galle on Thursday (21).

The new GOC was greeted to a Guard Turn out on arrival at the 58 Division Headquarters.

Afterwards, a Guard of Honour at the Divisional parade grounds greeted Major General Sudath Perera before he symbolically signed a formal document, amid chanting of ‘Seth Pirith’ by monks who invoked blessings on the new appointment.

Later on, he planted a sapling in the premises as a token of memory and had a discussion with serving Officers before he addressed the troops. An All Rank tea party brought the day’s arrangements to an end.
