hand, as measured by the percentage of authorized equipment a unit possesses, by more than 10 percent from FY12 to FY13. Tis effort also succeeded in mod- ernizing the 2nd Infantry Division fleets, and sourcing the reconnaissance squad- ron deployed to Korea

CONCLUSION Today, the significant events in the LMI process are nested within the HQDA G-8
