KLEs are especially important because they help strengthen ties between the U.S Armed Forces and coalition partners throughout the area of operations.
The 1st AD RSSB team felt that being able to attend events like this early into the deployment is important to their mission’s success.
“It is important for the calibration of information based on experience, operating procedure and conditions that are set on the ground,” said Howard.
The engagement provided vital information for the command team and key leaders as their mission gets underway.
The 1st AD RSSB will serve as the logistical headquarters for the entire theater and provide water, ammo, fuel, transportation, communication support, food and additional supplies to the warfighters and coalition forces in the brigades’ area of operation.
“We were able to understand, visualize and describe what our scope of responsibility are going to be in support of logistics and sustainment operations here within the theater,” said Howard.
1st AD RSSB will be taking over the sustainment mission for the Combined Joint Operations Area-Afghanistan from 1st Cavalry Division RSSB.
Lalor was able to take time at the end and thank the outgoing 1st Cavalry RSSBs’ team for all of their hard and dedication to the mission.
Lalor said that he looked forward to working with everyone here and it was a great opportunity to meet and get to know everyone better.
