More than 100 Soldiers from 549th Quarter-master Company returned to Fort Carson Nov. 10 following a seven-month deployment to Iraq in support of Operation New Dawn. The “Black Knights” of the 68th Combat Sustainment Support Battalion, 43rd Sustainment Brigade, were honored during an early morning welcome home ceremony at the Special Events Center. The Soldiers performed many different jobs while downrange. The company is comprised of Soldiers with various specialties, ranging from forklift operators to fuelers to administrative professionals to laundry and shower facilities maintainers. Among the company’s primary jobs while in Iraq was facilitating the troop drawdown by serving a key role in removing excess equipment as troops continued to withdraw from the region. The Black Knights also ensured the provision of clean laundry and shower facilities to Soldiers Photo by Sgt. Lakeshia L. Hubbard stationed throughout both the Victory Base Complex Capt. William R.

Seijas Installation Management Command Public Affairs

SAN ANTONIO — Fees for Army child care and related child and youth programs increase Dec. 1 as part of a phased program designed to reduce the impact of a changed Department of Defense policy. The second step in a three-year program to align Army fees to the 2010 DOD fee policy, the Army child care fee policy for school year 2011-2012 increases most fees by $4-$8 per week. Despite the increase, Child, Youth and School Services “continue to be a great value for Army Families because of the quality of the programs, the support they provide for a military lifestyle and the fee assistance provided by the Army for all patrons in every income category,” said Mary Nelsen, Parent and Outreach Services with the Installation Management Command’s Family and Morale, Welfare and Recreation Programs. Each year, DOD reviews fee ranges in all categories of child and youth service programs. In 2010, the Army analyzed that year’s DOD fee policy and worked to mitigate the financial impact on Army Families through an exception to Photo by Andrea Sutherland policy. The DOD exception to policy established an Michele Smithhart, lead teacher for the “strong beginnings” pre-kindergarten classroom at the East Child Army-specific transitional fee structure for installations Development Center, teaches students about the letter “B” Tuesday.
