SCHOFIELD BARRACKS, Hawaii -- The Soldiers of the 536th Support Maintenance Company (Legionnaires), 524th Combat Sustainment Support Battalion, 25th Sustainment Brigade, were honored at a ceremony on Sept. 13, prior to their nine-month deployment to Iraq in support of Operation Inherent Resolve.
Operation Inherent Resolve (OIR) is a combined joint task force operation to work with regional partners to militarily defeat the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria to increase regional stability.
The 'Legionnaires' will be tasked with providing maintenance support to units operating in the U.S. Army Central Command area of responsibility to include those participating in OIR. To prepare for this up-coming mission the company has trained relentlessly on their pre-deployment tasks for the past seven months.
"The team has sacrificed hundreds - probably more along the lines of thousands of man-hours in preparation for this deployment," said Lt. Col. David J. Young, 524th CSSB commander, and speaker during the deployment ceremony. "Personal training, equipment preparation and movement, multiple deployment facility operations, and vessel loading just to name a few."
After 536th SMC Soldiers accomplish their nine-month long mission they are expected to return in summer 2018.
