71st Transportation Battalion

Student Battalion Mission: 71st Transportation Battalion provides administration, logisitics and leadership to support the Army Logistics University's (ALU) mission of training logistics leaders.

Battalion Commander's Intent:
Purpose: To perform the unit's mission by working as a totally committed team with a single focus -- "one team dedicated to optimal education". This will happen by focusing our efforts on:
1. People - Caring for the men and women of this organization. The nation's most valued asset is people. Everyone in the organization must take care of themselves, their subordinates, and their leaders; spiritually, mentally, and physically.
2. Property -
People are more iomportant than property, but without the proper equipment, our team cannot perform its mission, and at times, could place a team member in danger. Everyone in the organization is charged with supporting the command's supply discipline program -- to include supporting commanders' monthly inventories and reporting fraud, waste and abuse.
3. Support the ALU (students and faculty): Every second of the day we are not engaged in the above items, we are devoted to the profession of training logistics leaders at the ALU. Everyone in the organization is charged with finding ways to make a difference here and executing them.
