This convoy is scheduled to deliver supplies from the corps logistics support area (LSA) over an approximately 50 mile route to Camp Bugle. He completed his convoy checklist and mission briefing items and delivered the convoy commander briefing to his march unit commanders and other selected individuals. The convoy completed actions in the assembly area and moved onto its route without a problem. From prior experience, SFC Smith knew that once the convoy was moving he would need to continuously monitor vehicle and driver actions while maintaining radio contact with the march unit commanders. By keeping an ear tuned to the convoy command frequency, he could visualize the convoy progress and problems that might develop. He knew that he could report any infractions to the march unit commanders and order them to take corrective actions as needed. As the convoy commander he could make on-the-spot corrections to curb developing problems. Drawing on his experience in maintaining control, SFC Smith was able to complete his convoy mission without incident.&
