Summary

The 143d Sustainment Command (Expeditionary) headquarters had a special visit from retired Brig. Gen. Joseph Joyce on Jan. 29, 2020 in Orlando, Fla. Retired Brig. Gen. Joyce presented Col. Richard Williams, 143d ESC chief of staff, with four Transportation Corps commemorative prints to include the "The Cargo Gets Through" from the Vietnam War and the "Lifeline to the Front Line" from World War II. Retired Brig. Gen. Joyce served in various positions throughout what was previously known as the 143d Transportation Command. From 1985 as a Terminal Plans Officer in Orlando, Fla. to 1998 as the Commander of the 1186th Transportation Terminal Brigade in Jacksonville, Fla. The history of the 143d ESC, like many Army units, is rich but often forgotten. It is through these days when artifacts of history can bring generations of Soldiers together to appreciate the sacrifice and selfless service of the many men and women who served before them.

The objects in this collection are from The U.S. National Archives and Defense Visual Information Distribution Service. The U.S. National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) was established in 1934 by President Franklin Roosevelt. NARA keeps those Federal records that are judged to have continuing value—about 2 to 5 percent of those generated in any given year. There are approximately 10 billion pages of textual records; 12 million maps, charts, and architectural and engineering drawings; 25 million still photographs and graphics; 24 million aerial photographs; 300,000 reels of motion picture film; 400,000 video and sound recordings; and 133 terabytes of electronic data. The Defense Visual Information Distribution Service provides a connection between world media and the American military personnel serving at home and abroad. All of these materials are preserved because they are important to the workings of Government, have long-term research worth, or provide information of value to citizens.
