A JOINT EFFORT


SDDC will move the vast majority of the equipment in theater back to the United States, but some of it is being disposed of or donated to local partners.

REHEARSING RETROGRADE To ensure that the V2DR process runs smoothly, SDDC personnel and various other military partners participated in a series of SDDC-sponsored rehearsal- of-concept (ROC) drills in May and July.

ability team (RPAT) yard to a seaport of debarkation, and onward to a U.S. port. In the second phase, the fictional vessel approached the U.S. port. Tis phase involved offloading the cargo and preparing it for movement to the final destination by rail or truck.

why we have ROC drills. It’s about see- ing ourselves through the entire process, and then understanding what actions are going to occur and who is responsible for each action. We have to understand all the moving pieces, and there are a lot of moving pieces.


“It’s not just the action of moving some- thing on a truck or train,” Richardson
