 USACAPOC(A) re-aligned the 490th and the rest of the 321st CA Brigade from the 351st to the 350th CACOM out of Pensacola, Florida.In relocating to Dallas, the 490th left behind six decades of history and a rich military community in Abilene, but gained an advantage in recruiting personnel for planned expansions of the 490th that would double its size and increase its readiness for deployment and mission capacity.In 2008, SSG Jacqueline Hunt of the 490th received the Soldier's Medal.
