    Railhead Ops: Back to Basics

    Rail remains a vital part of the deployment process. During past deployment operations, the Army relied on contractors to do the majority of the loading. But with the focus on large-scale combat operations, a unit’s Soldiers will be...

    It was a typical summer night at the Joint Readiness Training Center — hot and humid.
