 SDDC Deputy Commander visits DLA Distribution, tours EDC 

                    NEW CUMBERLAND, Pa. —                                                Army Col. Lillard D. Evans, deputy commander of Military Surface Deployment and Distribution Command, visited Defense Logistics Agency Distribution, Oct. 15, for a general overview on DLA Distribution’s mission and function and a discussion about consolidation and containerization point eligibility and the need for a west coast port of embarkment.

 Local Pennsylvania Rotary Club visit to DLA Distribution highlights growth, technology  

                    NEW CUMBERLAND, Pa. —                                                Much has changed since retired Army Col. George Connolly was assigned to the Defense Logistics Agency Distribution Susquehanna, Pennsylvania, more than 30 years ago. The agency’s role in supporting Department of Defense operations and humanitarian assistance grew dramatically beginning with Operation Desert Shield in 1990 and continued through now more than 18 years of military deployments in support of the Global War on Terror. Warehouses at the New Cumberland facility have expanded and become much more automated. Global positioning satellites now make tracking cargo more detailed than ever.

 DLA Susquehanna Child Development Center tours firehouse during National Fire Prevention Week 

                    NEW CUMBERLAND, Pa. —                                                It has become customary for most fire departments to visit public schools during Fire Prevention Week in order to acquaint children with the dangers of fire. For the Defense Logistics Agency Installation Management Susquehanna Fire Department, the closest thing to a school is the on-base Child Development Center, a day care and prekindergarten facility. So, 25 pre-K students were treated to a tour of the firehouse Oct. 10.

 Demo of circa World War I defense building marks end of one era and beginning of another  

                                In 1918, the U.S. Army Quartermaster Department established a depot on 851 acres of land in rural New Cumberland, Pennsylvania, based on its proximity to the Susquehanna River and Pennsylvania Railroad.

 DLA Distribution Expeditionary acquires four state-of-the-art assets for the price of one 

                    NEW CUMBERLAND, Pa. —                                                After 18 years of operational support to the Global War on Terror it is easy to forget just how unpredictable things were for military services in early days, months and years following Sept. 11, 2001. At that time no one knew with certainty exactly where U.S. troops would be stationed, how long they would be there or what equipment they would need to move supplies.

 Military Housing Demolition underway at Defense Distribution Center Susquehanna 

                    NEW CUMBERLAND, Pa. —                                                The world was a much different place when military housing was constructed at the New Cumberland Army Depot in the 1950s. Conserving material goods throughout World War II, most Americans (and military families in particular) were accustomed to smaller houses  built with materials much less efficient than those used in modern construction. By the
