626th Brigade - Support Battalion - Assurgam

Mission Statement

The 626th LTF assumed support missions as a part of the relief-in-place of the 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU) as soon as the early echelons of the LTF hit the ground at Kandahar Airfield, quickly taking over the command, control and execution of the water production mission, Class I ration break point, and bulk fuel operations. Before the rest of the task force had closed or the relief-in-place completed, the 626th LTF had planned and launched its first tactical support mission. The support of US and Coalition Special Operations Task Forces, as well as TF Rakkasan elements for mission AQ049 in January 2002 was the first of several weeks of continuous missions supported by 626th LTF. Forming, then deploying a forward logistics element (FLE) to Forward Operating Base (FOB) Bagram, 626th LTF established a fuel point capable of executing hot refuels for TF aircraft, and provided critical tactical resupply of food, water, ammunition, batteries, and barrier materials. These were all delivered on time, on target to a variety of small unit locations throughout the mountains of eastern Afghanistan, and throughout numerous combat missions.
