    Command Sgt. Maj. Phil Barretto, command sergeant major of U.S. Military Academy West Point, presents Sgt. 1st Class Robert Porter, a general engineering supervisor, 249th Engineering Battalion (Prime Power), U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, with a coin following a briefing about Prime Powers capabilities to keep the lights on at Fort Hamilton Army Base, NY, on Aug. 13.

    Following a summer of unreliable power due to a degraded substation that provides power to the Fort Hamilton Army Base, NY, and the summer’s extreme heat further straining the already weakened system, Service members from Prime Power officially began 24/7 operations to maintain consistent power, for all installation operations and quality of life services, Aug.18.

    Prime Power is the U.S. Army’s only military and federal relief power provider.
