JOHNSTOWN, Pa. – The 213th Regional Support Group, Pennsylvania National Guard welcomed a new unit to its ranks on Sept. 1.
The 121st Transportation Company’s mission is to transport bulk fuel using 5000 gallon tankers. The unit will have more than 160 spaces for Soldiers to be assigned in a variety of job positions, and is looking for more members to fill its ranks.
“The majority of the positions in this unit are truck driver positions, but we also have maintenance and supply positions,” said Maj. Dan Carroll, commander of the 228th Transportation Battalion, the unit’s higher headquarters. “These are great part-time positions with excellent benefits.”
The 213th Regional Support Group is standing up four new units as part of a reorganization this fall. The other units are the 228th Transportation Battalion, 721st Transportation Company (HET), and the 252nd Quartermaster Company.
“We are excited and honored to be part of Pennsylvania National Guard history,” Carroll said.
An activation ceremony will be held later this fall.
Organized in 1849, the 213th Regional Support Group has a long history of providing support for state and federal operations. The 213th Regional Support Group consists of more than 20 specialized units located throughout the commonwealth. The units that represent the 213th Regional Support Group include finance, maintenance, personnel, sustainment, transportation, contracting, and public affairs.
