In another maintenance bay Idaho Army National Guard Sgt. Mason Martin (right) points out some information for Spc. Danielle Smith to look over before she begins piloting her creeper around and underneath the M978 Tanker to complete a routine inspection and maintenance check. The M978 is from the family of vehicles known as Heavy Expanded Mobility Tactical Truck, or HEMTT. Its an eight-wheel drive, diesel-powered, military logistics truck.
The Idaho Army National Guard’s Combined Services Maintenance Shop on Gowen Field provides maintenance for the guard's operational needs throughout Idaho and directly supports seven Field Maintenance Shops at armories throughout the state. CSMS also provides support for operational units of the 116th Cavalry Brigade Combat Team and the Idaho Army National Guard's aviation units. The 204th Regional Training Institute, that trains active duty and guard soldiers as cavalry scouts, Abrams tank crews and maintainers as well as Bradley Fighting Vehicle crews, relies on their mechanical expertise as well.
During 2019 the CSMS completed work on 2850 maintenance requests in support of the Idaho Army national Guard. The CSMS motto - We Will Find A Way “ was born from the desire to provide outstanding customer service with a willingness to find a way to help that customer.
