FORT RILEY, Kan. (AP) _ A senior Army officer at Fort Riley oversaw a review of the 1st Infantry Division and officiated a change of command Thursday.

General Charles Campbell is head of the Army's Forces Command. He presided over a ceremony Thursday as Major General Robert Durbin relinquished command of the division and Fort Riley.

Brigadier General Perry Wiggins will assume control of the division until a permanent replacement is named.
