DSC / Army Reserve Reorganization Plans

BLUF

• This concept plan proposes
• A Deployment Support Command (DSC), an
  operationally capable command
• which supports ARFORGEN and the operational
  reserve by
• - Commanding and controlling SDDC aligned Army
  Reserve terminal, rail, and
• deployment/distribution support units
• - Providing technical training and readiness
  oversight (TTRO) for all Army Reserve
• terminal, watercraft, rail, movement
  control and deployment/distribution support
  units.
• - Commanding, controlling, and staffing a DM4S
  or a JDDOC when required
• - Providing deployment/distribution support as
  required
• Redesigning SDDC RC Groups and Battalions to
  standardized TDAs which
• provide a bridge for subsequent conversion to
  TOE designs.

SDDC Group Battalion Reorganization

• 
  Objective
• Eliminate non-standard brigade, group, and
  battalion
• structures and replace them with single
  design TDA groups
• and battalions
• Balance the operational C2 capability of the
  command
• Provide a bridge for future conversion to TOE
  designs
• Meet both expeditionary and enduring deployment
  and
• distribution missions
