    The Soldiers of 3rd Platoon, 24th Transportation Company, 1st Sustainment Brigade, 1st Infantry Division, head out on a mission to Harbor Gate Turkish border, June 6. Since April 2007, the unit has been deployed to Combat Operating Base Q-West and one of their main missions has been to escort convoys to the Turkish border to pick up critical supplies. Through the last 14 months of deployment, the unit has faced many challenges, but the mission has never stopped. The 24th Trans. Co. is scheduled to return to Fort Riley in July 2008.
