87th Combat Sustainment Support Battalion
"Base of the Pyramid"
Welcome to the 87th Combat Sustainment Support Battalion (CSSB), the largest Battalion on Fort Stewart and one of the largest Battalions in FORSCOM.
The 87th CSSB provides training, readiness assistance and mission command to seven companies. Our formation includes a Headquarters and Headquarters Detachment (HHD), a Quartermaster POL Company (135th QM), a Composite Supply Company (226th CSC), an Ordnance Company (24th OD), a Composite Transportation Company (396th CTC), a Movement Control Team (495th MCT), and a Maintenance Company (632nd MC). All stand ready to deploy in support of contingency operations worldwide. Our mission is to train, integrate and project modular sustainment forces in order to provide logistics support to worldwide full-spectrum operations.
The "Base of the Pyramid" Battalion is a unit with an impressive record in both peace and war, beginning with our founding in 1936. Our remarkable history is outlined on the Battalion's History page on the Fort Stewart home page. Our shared vision is to be the Army's premier Combat Sustainment Support Battalion; a trained, ready and adaptive modular force, developing respected and valued team members, providing support across the full spectrum of military operations to any command in any theater. We leverage a family readiness group to foster a strong bond with our families. We are proud to be a part of the 3d Infantry Division, the Fort Stewart Community and the Coastal Georgia Region. We are minutes from Savannah, and a short drive from Hilton Head, Charleston, and the wonderful beaches of Jacksonville and Northern Florida. There are plenty of activities in and around our community for families of our “Always Strong” team.
The most important element necessary to achieve our Battalion's shared vision is our Soldiers. Our leaders provide for their welfare, safety and professional development. The Soldiers in this battalion deserve nothing less than strong, smart, trained, and dedicated leadership.
Base of the Pyramid – Always Strong!
