We analyze new developments, discuss current trends, and forge the path ahead for the next generation of sustainment Soldiers. This is an original weekly podcast that broadcasts from CASCOM on Fort Lee, Virginia. Our goal is to support and educate the sustainment enterprise all over the globe. The episodes are short and packaged for quick consumption. In each episode, the Sustainment Harding Fellow talks with sustainment leaders on a variety of topics in the sustainment enterprise. These conversations are designed to spark discussions across the enterprise and to sharpen our skills and knowledge as sustainers.
