I read on the internet somewhere that Al-Samad is one of the names of Allah in the Qur'an, it means "The Everlasting Sustainer of All". I wonder if that had any influence on the acronym chosen by the Fort Huachuca leadership? There would have to be some Arabic speakers amongst all those MI types, surely?
