 My name is Lieutenant Colonel Autumn Swinford and I'm the commanding officer of First Landing Support Battalion. The mission of First Landing Support Battalion is to facilitate the throughput of equipment and supplies to the MAG TAF by air, by land, and by sea. What that means is that we facilitate the movement of personnel, equipment, and anything that needs to be moved through airfields, railheads, ports, beaches, or any other area where someone needs to move cargo from one place to another. Landing Support Battalion also includes the capabilities of air delivery, motor transport, and heavy equipment support. During Exercise Native Fury, elements of First Landing Support Battalion and other attachments form the Landing Force Support Party, or LFSP. The LFSP command and controls and facilitates the offload of the US NSA. That equipment coming from the US NSA, we will take that from one part of the port to another, conduct maintenance, and prepare it for throughput for using units to use it for the rest of the exercise. So my role during this exercise is as the LFSP officer in charge, so I am responsible for the overall success of the mission and the leadership of the LFSP. During this exercise, my role is as the officer in charge of the LFSP. That means I am responsible for the overall mission accomplishment and the leadership of all of the Marines and Sailors that are conducting this mission as the LFSP. At this point in the exercise, we are at about the halfway point. We have conducted the offload of the US NSA and we have moved over 750 pieces of equipment off of the ship and put it in the hands of other units to use it for the exercise. For the rest of this exercise, we will be focused on bringing all of that equipment back, preparing it to be onloaded back onto the ship so that it can be used in future exercises or operations by Marines and Sailors around the world. So the LFSP is full of hardworking, dedicated and proficient Marines and Sailors who are excited to come out here and do their job in a real-world environment and help support the Marine Corps' greater mission worldwide. So I'm just excited to serve alongside them.
