I Sustain This: November 2022 Nominees

PS Magazine’s I Sustain This campaign is designed to recognize civilian sustainers who exemplify the highest standards while maintaining equipment to meet combat readiness requirements and stay in the fight, even under the most arduous of circumstances.

For November, we had one civilian sustainer nominated for this program. That individual was Benjamin Engelson of the TACOM Fleet Management Expansion (FMX) office, North Range, Ft Lee, VA.
   
Why does this person deserve recognition? Mr. Engelson maintains the training base operational readiness fleet consisting of M88A1, M88A2, M113A3, M1089A1, M1089A1P2, M1075A1, and M10000 forklift. His attention to details and superior maintenance knowledge enables TACOM FMX at Fort Lee, Virginia, Ordnance Division, North Range, to administer organizational maintenance procedures to accomplish the critical objectives of (1) no missed training, (2) maintaining readiness rates above 90 percent fully missioned capable status, and (3) adherence to funding goals.

Additional Comments: As an additional duty, Mr. Engelson administers the North Range Cultural Observation Program which ensures compliance with installation and unit requirements.
