The Transportation needs of the Army don’t only happen during major conflicts, but also during other global
contingency operations. During disaster assistance responses to peacekeeping around the world, U.S. Army
Transportation is there supporting the force. Places like the Dominican Republic, Somalia, Haiti,
Bosnia-Herzegovina and Sinai Egypt have all been destinations for the U.S. Army Transportation over the
years.
