SFC Smith of the 4321 Transportation Company has been assigned as a convoy commander. This convoy is scheduled to deliver supplies from the corps logistics support area (LSA) over an approximately 50 mile route to Camp Bugle. He determined that this platoon had enough vehicles of the right type to complete the mission, and later assembled the non-commissioned officers who would be in charge of each march unit. Although his drivers had completed similar convoys several times, he knew that he needed to routinely brief key items from the order and the unit SOP. Movement schedules, local traffic laws, vehicle interval and speed, speed limits and traffic rules were items that the march unit commanders had to constantly enforce and supervise to prevent delays and ensure safe operations. He also knew that new unit members would benefit from being told how the convoy must operate and their individual discipline while observing speed limits and protective measures would help minimize casualties in the event of enemy contact or incidents. Gaps between march units would help avoid halts in congested areas and at critical points along the route. SFC Smith conducted his march unit commander briefing in sufficient time for them to pass important information on to all the drivers and the convoy was subsequently able to complete its mission without incident.& &feedback=Good job.
