3rd Division Sustainment Brigade

U.S. Army Soldiers of the 3rd Division Sustainment Brigade complete a nine-month deployment in support of V Corps in Europe, handing responsibility for their mission to their relief, the 1st Cavalry Division Sustainment Brigade, during a transfer of authority ceremony at Forward Operating Site Powidz on April 19. Elements of the brigade deployed last July as part of a regular rotation of forces to support the U.S. commitment to NATO allies and partners in Europe and to bolster security on the eastern flank of the alliance. The Soldiers supported multinational training and operations to build readiness for contingency response and to deter adversaries. Their multi-composition task force enhanced the sustainment enterprise across 13 countries, supporting two divisions and five brigades. The brigade led more than a thousand distribution missions over three million kilometers of logistical routes, established the first permanent supply support activity site in the Baltics, and completed the first live fire certifications for convoy platform protection crews. The 3rd DSB now focuses on reintegration and readiness for the return to its mission to support the 3rd Infantry Division as the armored component of America’s contingency corps. Maj. Gen. Christopher Norrie, commanding general of the 3rd ID, and Col. Jennifer McDonough, commander of the 3rd DSB, laud the hard work and accomplishments of the brigade's Soldiers.
