Modular, expeditionary, and in the thick of the fight -- that's the Army Sustainment Command (ASC). In less than 2 years, ASC has formed a global network of brigades, battalions, Logistics Support Elements (LSEs), and Brigade Logistics Support Teams (BLSTs) to push readiness power forward. From the outset, ASC has been evolutionary and, in some respects, revolutionary. Army Force Generation (ARFORGEN) and emerging operational issues are driving dramatic change in the way our Army provides AL&T support to forces in the field. Being in persistent conflict while also transforming to a modular, brigade-centric force requires creative solutions to entirely new challenges. Meeting the challenge are seven Army Field Support Brigades (AFSBs) and their subordinate elements, exercising command and control over more than 5,000 Soldiers, Army civilians, and contractors. In addition, many thousands of contract service providers add muscle to the mission. As concept becomes doctrine, AFSBs are charged with execution of ARFORGEN and, when directed, contingency operational logistics support in theater operations. Each AFSB is a small, mission-focused and highly modular organization built around a tailored modified table of organization and equipment and augmentation table of distribution and allowances structure assigned to the U.S. Army Materiel Command's ASC.
