CONTINGENCY OPERATING BASE ADDER, Iraq - A soldier with the automotive section of the 632nd Maintenance Company, 749th Combat Sustainment Support Battalion, 224th Sustainment Brigade, 103rd Sustainment Command (Expeditionary), has been playing a key role in the mission readiness of wheeled vehicles at Contingency Operating Base Adder, Iraq.
Spc. Lavell Ravenell, a wheeled vehicle mechanic with the 632nd Maint. Company, 749th CSSB, and a Jamaica, N.Y., native, is serving his second deployment in Iraq. Ravenell is responsible for maintenance on vehicles ranging from high mobility multipurpose wheeled vehicles to Mine-Resistant-Ambush-Protected vehicles.
“I like my job and I enjoy the challenges that everyday missions bring,” Ravenell said. “I am glad that I have the group of soldiers to work with that I do. It makes my job easier when you get along with the ones that you work with.”
Ravenall works under the supervision of Staff Sgt. Shilonda Moore, an all-wheeled mechanic with the 632nd Maint. Company, 749th CSSB, and a Lansing, Mich., native. Moore is directly responsible for ensuring that all of her soldiers work in a safe environment.
“I supervise an awesome team of mechanics and civilians that go the extra distance to get the job done,” said Moore, who was previously stationed out of Fort Stewart, Ga., and is on her third deployment.
