CAMP CASEY, South Korea \u2013 Camp Casey\u2019s Fleet Management Operations (FMO), colloquially referred to as the motor pool, got a modern facelift after more than 35 years of honorable service to the community, Camp Casey, South Korea, Jan. 7. The U.S. Army Garrison Yongsan-Casey commander, alongside other military leaders, celebrated the occasion with a ribbon cutting ceremony, tour of the renovated buildings, and an awards ceremony for employees.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne of my primary objectives is making sure Yongsan-Casey is a safe and comfortable place to work,\u201d said Col. Edward Cho, the U.S. Army Garrison Yongsan-Casey commander. \u201cBoth of these buildings were built over 35 years ago, with this being their first renovation since their original construction.\u201d<\/p>\n

Collectively, the two buildings have played a critical role in the installation\u2019s logistical operations for over 88 years. Building S-2101 was first built in 1972 and supports driver\u2019s testing and Fleet Management Operations. Building S-2363 was first built in 1989 and is an essential waiting area for drivers.<\/p>\n

FMO is a core facility on every military installation, essential to the day-to-day mission requirements of every Soldier and civilian within the command\u2019s footprint.<\/p>\n

After a congratulatory speech from Cho, military leaders and civilians ceremoniously cut the ribbon to designate the two buildings as being open for business.<\/p>\n

Additional guests of honor included Jimmy Ray, Logistics Readiness Center (LRC) \u2013 North director; Lt. Col. Brian Thompson, Army Field Support Battalion-Korean (AFSBn-K) commander; Sgt. Maj. Jamaal Simmons, AFSBn-K senior enlisted advisor; Tong Won O, Korean Service Corps union president; Directorate of Public Works leaders, and more.<\/p>\n

After the ribbon cutting, the group walked through the new buildings and got a firsthand look at the update. Before even walking in, attendees were excited to see repaired roof and exterior which were visibly showing their age and getting closer to a dilapidated state.<\/p>\n

\u201cJust from looking at the exterior, I can tell it will be an amazing update,\u201d said Cho.<\/p>\n

U.S. Army Garrison Yongsan-Casey is the \u201cArmy\u2019s Home in Korea for Warfighters\u201d and has broad footprint covering everything from the De-militarized Zone (DMZ) to Seoul. Having safe and reliable transportation not only helps accomplish the mission, it also is a key factor impacting the quality of life for all members of the community. Military vehicles are used to keep the power on, transport personnel, stock shelves, and more.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
