Depending upon operational and mission variables, the division sustainment brigade can command up to seven battalions. Figure 2-4 on page 2-14 depicts a notional task-organized division sustainment brigades in support of an armored division. It and its subordinate units assigned to a division provides direct support to all assigned and attached units in an operational area as directed by the division commander. The division sustainment brigade provides general support logistics, personnel services, and financial management to non-divisional forces operating in the division AO. A task-organized division sustainment brigade assigned to a division normally includes an organic division sustainment troops battalion and an organic division sustainment support battalion to support tactical-level sustainment operations. The division sustainment brigade coordinates and synchronizes tactical-level sustainment operations to meet current and future operations. The division sustainment brigade is dependent on the division staff for long-range planning capability. The division sustainment brigade and its subordinate units must be able to move and displace at the pace of large-scale combat operations.
