LSOC-West Map
Leveraging Sustainment Organizations in
CONUS -
LSOC authorizes Active Component (AC)
Expeditionary Sustainment Commands (ESCs) in
CONUS to support Senior Commanders (SCs),
installation Mission Support Elements
(MSEs), sustainment organizations, and
sustainment staff officers efforts to
resolve mentorship, training, and materiel
management shortfalls in these formations
caused by repeated deployments and the
complexities of the Echelons Above Brigade
(EAB) ARFORGEN process.
LSOC does not change existing Command and
Control (C2) or Training and Readiness
Authority (TRA) relationships; rather, it
provides the two AC ESCs with coordinating
authority.
