MANNHEIM, Germany - Supply specialists from 1st Armored Brigade Combat Team, 3rd Infantry Division, and contractors assigned to Army Field Support Battalion-Mannheim, 405th Army Field Support Brigade, count and report supply items loaded in a special storage container designed to act as a mobile supply room. The accounting and reporting of 4,776 lines of material containing tens of thousands of individual repair parts, tools and supply items – part of a full Army Preposition Stocks-2 issue designed to outfit an entire armored brigade combat team and valued at nearly $20 million – was done in 2- and 3-person teams. Usually, one or two logistics supply specialists physically check each item and account for it, and another specialist records their findings. From there, the information is uploaded into the Global Combat Systems Support-Army, a web-based automated logistics system. All 4,776 lines of material they accounted for was shipped from Coleman worksite in Mannheim, Germany to Grafenwoehr Training Area, Germany, and issued to 1st ABCT, 3rd ID, to help ensure the U.S.-based armored brigade stays up and running during its deployment to Germany.
