ARMY AL&T


than 7,000 Transportation Protective Service trucks through USTRANSCOM and Military Surface Deployment and Distri- bution Command, the Army’s service component command to USTRANSCOM, to deliver munitions from eight instal- lations—Anniston Munitions Center, Blue Grass Army Depot, Crane Army Ammunition Activity, Hawthorne Army Depot, Letterkenny Munitions Center, McAlester Army Ammunition Plant, Tooele Army Depot and IAAAP—to six airfields and one seaport for shipment in support of Ukraine.


With assistance from rail and trucking partners, JMC distributed an additional 6,311 containers (59,105 short tons) of muni- tions—3,757 containers by rail and 2,554 by truck—to port terminals.


Trough special assignment airlift missions, or SAAMs, JMC executes orders at the speed of relevance. JMC’s yearly average of SAAM execution is typically 80 per year, but in the past


12 months it has executed over 430 SAAMs of ammunition in support of Ukraine.


Te normal planning timeframe for a SAAM is approximately 45 days from receipt of requirement to SAAM departure, but JMC and the Defense Travel System enterprise have reduced it to five days. Te normal timeframe for a sustainment vessel is approx- imately 135 days from identification of requirements to final delivery to the seaport of embarkation, and the enterprise has been able to execute this process in as little as 11 days through extraordinary coordination to meet emerging requirements.


“Tanks to a collective team effort across the OIB and with our partners, we have been able to streamline processes and improve resource management,” said Gina Ward, JMC’s munitions logis- tics director. “Tis collaboration has led to faster delivery times, increased reliability and enhanced readiness.”


CONCLUSION JMC executes orders at the speed of relevance, and the command’s vision is to ensure excellence in munitions readiness and sustain- ment through continual innovation and modernization.


JMC will steadfastly and resolutely continue to provide essential ammunition to the brave and valiant soldiers in Ukraine, ensur- ing their safety and empowering them to defend their homeland. Tis effort upholds our unwavering international commitments to peace, freedom and stability in the region.


JMC’s actions reflect the enduring spirit of solidarity, patrio- tism and dedication to democratic values that define the nation.
