JOINT BASE BALAD, Iraq - The 3rd Sustainment Command (Expeditionary) hosted a commander's conference on Joint Base Balad, Oct. 15, 2008.
The purpose of the conference was to share information on incoming and outgoing units in theater and gain an even outlook on current and emerging problems effecting logistical operations in theater.
"As a command we are very busy with retrograde, deploying units, and training support to the Iraqi army," said Brig. Gen. Michael Lally, the commanding general for the 3rd ESC, based out of Fort Knox, Ky. "This conference helped ensure the commanders and command sergeants major understand the challenges facing each other and the entire command," said Lally.
Commanders and command sergeants major from the 3rd ESC, 1st Sustainment Brigade, 7th Sustainment Brigade, 16th Sustainment Brigade, 55th Sustainment Brigade, 371st Sustainment Brigade, 76th Infantry Brigade Combat Team, and 330th Transportation Battalion attended the meeting.
Lally opened the conference by addressing the senior leaders with his wishes to coordinate efforts to make sure all brigades were working toward the common goal.
The leaders discussed information concerning their unit's operation throughout Iraq. The commanders and command sergeants major spoke about maintenance and drivers training conducted before and during deployments to Iraq, including training conducted at Camp Buehring, Kuwait.
Capt. Joseph Green, the commander for the 44th Military History Detachment, briefed the commanders on the importance of documenting their unit's operations for future historical purposes.
Maj. Deon Green, a Milwaukee, Wis., native, and the staff judge advocate for the 3rd ESC, briefed the leaders on senior leader action processing. Deon answered questions about legal actions that could stop Soldiers from leaving theater.
Lally released the commanders and command sergeants major after two days of meetings that will lead to more efficient operations within the 3rd ESC.
