Meet the US Army team that helped withdraw from Syria as the ISIS fight drags on
The SLC doesn't work alone when it comes to supporting combat operations in Syria.
"The SLC partners with and synchronizes efforts of multiple elements from 1st Theater Sustainment Command, Special Operations Joint Task Force-Operation Inherent Resolve, and Combined Joint Task Force-Operation Inherent Resolve," Palsma said.
"These critical partnerships are critical to ensure the warfighters in Syria receive the vital support necessary to accomplish their mission to defeat ISIS," Palsma said.
Although a small team, the soldiers at the SLC have a wealth of responsibility.
"Our team works in close cooperation with Forward Logistics Elements in providing mission command with tactical control of sustainment soldiers to direct movement of all classes of supply, maintenance, and contracting support for remote and austere combat outstations," Palsma said.
"The SLC is responsible for the ground movements of required commodities and cargo into Syria," Palsma said.
The Syrian Logistics Cell may be small in numbers but their support will continue making a huge difference in the fight against ISIS.
