BAUMHOLDER, Germany \u2013 Jeremy Quick will have seven years working for the U.S. Army in Baumholder as a German local national employee in November, but his mother, Birgit Quick, has over 39. Before accepting a job offer with Logistics Readiness Center Rheinland-Pfalz as a supply management specialist, Quick worked for his mom at her drugstore in the village of Baumholder.<\/p>\n

As the owner, she was managing the store while working for the Army part time in Child and Youth Services. For the last three years, however, she\u2019s been working for the garrison\u2019s Directorate of Public Works while renting out her store, and they\u2019re both now full-time Army LN employees in Baumholder.<\/p>\n

Quick, who just turned 30, works at one of only two Subsistence Supply Management Offices in Germany. The other SSMO is in Bavaria. Daily, he is responsible for helping to manage food supplies and rations that support field exercises and units deployed to forward locations plus food supplies for several warrior restaurants in Germany.<\/p>\n

This includes two warrior restaurants in Baumholder, two in Kaiserslautern, one in Wiesbaden, one Sembach, and one in Stuttgart. And Quick said his SSMO team also supports the Baltics and Poland.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe work in customer service, so our highest priority is always making sure our customers are satisfied with our service,\u201d said Quick, who in addition to his job as a supply management specialist is also an acting assistant supervisor since the manager position is temporarily unfilled.<\/p>\n

Quick said the SSMO directly handles the food supply orders and rations for the units during field exercises and short deployments. This includes Meals Ready to Eat, or MREs, and Unitized Group Rations, or UGRs, which are prepared by the Soldiers in field kitchens.<\/p>\n

For the warrior restaurants in Baumholder, Kaiserslautern, Wiesbaden, Sembach and Stuttgart, Quick said the restaurant managers submit the orders to the broker and the vendors directly, but the SSMO is responsible for reviewing those orders and making any changes or adjustments, as needed.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf the quantities are incorrect or there\u2019s an item listed in the order that\u2019s not in the catalog anymore, then we will assist them,\u201d Quick said. \u201cAnd for items like fresh bread and milk, the needed lead time is always seven days. Sometimes, for whatever reason, the warrior restaurant sends their order late. If that\u2019s the case, we will contact the food broker manager or send an emergency order.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI like working for LRC Rheinland-Pfalz very much. There are great people here, and we have a great professional work relationship. It\u2019s the kind of job when you wake up in the morning, you don\u2019t go \u2018Ugh, oh no. I have to go to work today.\u2019 You wake up ready and willing to go,\u201d said Quick. \u201cIt\u2019s a lot of work at times, but it\u2019s easy when you have the right people working with you.\u201d<\/p>\n
