            5. COMMANDERS COMMENTS

                 Although this report covers a limited period of time
            consisting of two short months, the subject matter addressed is a
            condensed version of immense historical signif icance. of and by
            itself, each area of concern portrays a short synopsis of events
            expressed in the form of memorandums, line graphs, rosters and
            other correspondence as experienced by the reporting officer.
            Taken together, this report portrays occurrences encompassing war
            and peace and details my Coinmand's response in pursuing the
            successful conclusion of the former and the establishment of the
            latter. Some command staff duties and responsibilities functioned
            better than others. In the personnel and operations arena, years
            of intense individual and collective training paid very high
            dividends.   The responsible staff personnel organized themselves
            and reacted professionally to every new development and when tasked
            with a new and difficult mission they responded magnificently and
            rose to the occasion. However, in the logistical domain, my staff
            didn't have time to fully consolidate this command's supply
            management program because of the myriad of problems addressed by
            my S4 and CSM in this report. The issues raised are relevant and
            need to be expressed so that the "fix" can be accomplished before
            the next war.    Any critical comments are not to be viewed in a
            negative light but rather in the context in which they were made -
            to improve our readiness posture for a quicker, more professional
            response to any future conflicts.        It is in the spirit of
            strengthening the One Army concept that I submit the enclosed
            Command Report for consideration.
