    143d Sustainment Command (Expeditionary)

    Brig. Gen. Donald Tatum (center), commanding general of the 135th Sustainment Command (Expeditionary) stands with his fellow soldiers around Third Army's insignia displayed at Army Support Group-Kuwait's headquarters Oct. 24 in Camp Arifjan, Kuwait.

    Soldiers from the 135th ESC presented Tatum with the American flag that flew over ASG-Kuwait's headquarters for 211 days, period that coincidentally coincided with the time Tatum and his troops had commanded many of the logistical missions conducted under U.S. Central Command's area of operations.

    Earlier that day, the Alabama National Guard unit conducted a transfer of authority ceremony with the 143d ESC, an Army Reserve sustainment command headquartered in Orlando, Fla. The 135th ESC spent two months training their 143d ESC counterparts while simultaneously overseeing missions and operations throughout the Middle East.
