 DLA Disposition Services supports ROTC winter training in New Hampshire By Jeff Landenberger
                DLA Disposition Services
 Equipment acquired from the Defense Logistics Agency Disposition Services was used to help educate and train the next generation of military officers at the University of New Hampshire. The equipment was acquired by the University ‘s ROTC unit and used to train the cadets during their Friday night labs. ROTC Cadet Kyle Cotoia, from the Southern New Hampshire University, performs the duties of Squad leader for a platoon mission against an opposition force. Cotoia and the rest of the cadets in his ROTC unit take part in these operations to instill confidence in their capabilities and develop their leadership skills.

                    VIRIN: 220131-O-AA987-008 “Every Friday night we hold what we call a Lab, training that takes place on campus but once a semester we have an overnight exercise,” said Army Lt. Col. Andrew Ruszkiewicz who is serving as a Professor of Military Science. The unit had never used DLA Disposition Services as a source of supply, but Ruszkiewicz brought the knowledge of using Disposition Service as a source of supply. He added that he had used DLA Disposition Services at other duty stations and found it a useful option to stretch a tight budget. “We get all types of equipment from DLA Disposition Services to support our mission,” Ruszkiewicz said. Including Tents, heaters and gloves for his 150 cadets. ROTC Cadets from the University of Southern New Hampshire University take part in a weekend long training exercise.
