As the Group Commander of NAVELSG FWD, I want you to know that we are very excited to publish our premier edition newsletter. This edition is dedicated to you - the families and friends of our deployed sailors. It’s hard to believe that we have been deployed for over four months. Each day of deployment is another day closer that we will all be home and reunited with both families and friends. I want to reassure you that all sailors are doing an outstanding job and I am very proud of the accomplishments we have achieved thus far in our deployment. I also want to assure you that I take my job and the responsibility to take care of all sailors very seriously. I am also honored to be the Group Commander and have dedicated my leadership to the memory of CAPT Lyman Foster who was the Group Commander during the NAVELSG FWD Bravo rotation. I was his Deputy during the Bravo rotation and the impact of his leadership still touches me today. Our mission as part of NAVELSG FWD is to provide Expeditionary Support Services (ESS) throughout the U.S. Central Command Area of Responsibility, Marine Air Cargo Handling to the U.S. Marine Corps, and Customs Clearing for U.S. Army personnel and equipment. Our deployment goals are to (1) provide the best possible logistical support to the joint warfighter, and, (2) mobilize, deploy, and return home with no accidents, injuries, or mishaps - returning home better than when we left. I am extremely proud of each sailor in the Group and even more proud of the families and friends
