Maj. Gen. Peter Lennon, commanding general of the 377th

Maj. Gen. Peter Lennon, commanding general of the 377th Theater Sustainment Command speaks during the celebration of a brand new, redesigned pier, where the 377th, 81st Regional Support Command and the 824th Transportation Company (Heavy Watercraft) held a ribbon cutting ceremony in Morehead City, N.C., on May 3. The previous pier had been destroyed in 2011 by Hurricane Irene. The mission of the 824th is to provide cargo trans-shipment service by safely and quickly loading, transporting and offloading personnel and almost any type of equipment that can fit onto the boat's deck. The boat moored in the background is the U.S. Army Vessel Missionary Ridge. USAVs are named after battles fought during the American Revolution, the War with Mexico and the American Civil War.
