CAMP CARROLL, South Korea - The U.S. Army flexed its logistical muscles March 3, moving pre-positioned stocks onto trains here during railhead operations in support of Key Resolve/Foal Eagle.

The Daegu, South Korea-based 19th Expeditionary Sustainment Command and Army Field Support Battalion-North East Asia staged the equipment for a combat task force consisting of the 2nd Battery, 146th Field Artillery and a platoon from the 11th Army Cavalry Regiment.

The vehicles were drawn from Army Prepositioned Stocks 4 to support the Reception, Staging, Onward Movement and Integration process.

The vehicles will be shipped to Camp Casey and the U.S.-based task force will conduct a live fire exercise with units from the 2nd Infantry Division.

Held around the same time every year, Key Resolve and Foal Eagle are defensive command post and field exercises designed to keep the ROK-U.S. Alliance ready for any contingency.
