Anniston Army Depot (ANAD) is the designated Center of Industrial and
Technical Excellence (CITE) for combat vehicles (tracked and wheeled),
artillery (self propelled and towed), bridging systems, and small
caliber weapons (individual and crew served). ANAD performs depot level
maintenance on vehicles ranging in size from the Stryker to the 70 ton
M1 Abrams Tank and a variety of other types in between, like the M113
Family of Vehicles, the M88 Recovery Vehicle, and the M9 Armored Combat
Engineering vehicle. Major components of each vehicle are also
overhauled and returned to stock. ANAD personnel are deployed around the
world in direct support of our nation’s war fighters providing
fielding services and repairs in the field. Combat and battle damage
repairs are currently being accomplished both at home and abroad.

Under partnership agreements, a wide range of vehicle conversions,
upgrades, and new vehicle manufacturing are currently underway.
Additionally, worldwide distribution of stocks and the maintenance and
storage of conventional ammunition and missiles, as well as the storage
of seven percent of the Nation’s chemical munitions stockpile (until
the stockpile is demilitarized) are significant parts of the depot’s
overall missions and capabilities. The Department of Defense’s only
missile recycling center is located at Anniston.

Key tenant organizations on the depot include the Defense Distribution
Depot Anniston Alabama (DDAA), the Anniston Defense Munitions Center
(ADMC), the Anniston Chemical Activity (ANCA), and the Center of
Military History Clearing House.

The Fleet Readiness Center (FRC) East at Cherry Point, N.C., provides
extensive maintenance and engineering support to Navy and Marine Corps
aviation, as well as other armed services, federal agencies and foreign
governments. 

Fleet Readiness Center (FRC) East is one of six fleet readiness centers
operated by the U.S. Navy.  During its more than six decades of
operation, FRC East has provided maintenance, engineering and logistics
support on a variety of aircraft, engines and components for all
branches of the U.S. Armed Forces.

From its beginnings in 1943 as the Assembly and Repair Department aboard
  HYPERLINK "http://www.cherrypoint.usmc.mil/"  Marine Corps Air Station
Cherry Point , FRC East has grown to become eastern North Carolina's
largest industrial employer. The Center employs about 4,000 civilian,
military and contractor personnel, who work in a wide variety of skilled
technical and professional positions.

The Center’s customers include: 202 different Navy and Marine Corps
activities, 24 foreign nations, five U. S. Air Force activities, three
U.S. Army activities, and two other federal agencies. As a service
provider specializing in support of Marine Corps aircraft, engines, and
components, FRC is the only source of repair within the continental
United States for many jet engines and rotary wing engines, as well as
turbofan vectored thrust engines.

FRC East sits on nearly 150 acres and its facilities are spread over
more than 100 buildings and structures.

Defense Distribution Depot San Joaquin serves as Defense Logistics
Agency's primary distribution point to the western contiguous states and
the pacific area for materiel distribution of a wide variety of items.

The San Joaquin Depot is made up of distribution facilities at two
separate locations--Tracy and Lathrop. The depot receives, stores, and
ships supplies to military customers located mainly in the western U.S.
and the Pacific Theater of operations, and in some cases worldwide. The
San Joaquin Depot is one of two Primary Distribution Sites that belong
to a 22-depot Defense Distribution Center headquartered in New
Cumberland, PA. Overall management is provided by the Defense Logistics
Agency located at Fort Belvoir, VA, which oversees the management of 4.1
million items and 360,000 prime contracts valued at $900 billion for the
Department of Defense. 

As a Primary Distribution Site, the depot serves as a west coast hub of
distribution activities, stocking the items commonly ordered by the
military services. Most items fall into categories that include food,
clothing and textiles, medical supplies and equipment, construction
materials, electrical supplies and components, tires for both vehicles
and aircraft, and secondary repair parts. The depot is situated at a
transportation crossroads which can easily accommodate a monthly average
of 49,800 receipts and 311,000 shipments. 

The depot maintains a Consolidation and Containerization Point that
operates much like a cross docking, freight forwarding business. Items
from other depots, independent vendors and other government agencies are
shipped to a warehouse at the Lathrop facility where they are
consolidated into vans or on special air pallets for shipment to the
customer overseas. On a monthly average 490 sea-going vans and 360 air
pallets will be shipped from the Consolidation and Containerization
Point. The efficient cube utilization of this operation nets millions of
dollars in transportation savings for taxpayers. 

There has been a recent surge in inventory at the San Joaquin Depot. As
a result of the 1995 Base Realignment and Closure proceedings,
approximately 728,500 items of stock were relocated to the San Joaquin
Depot from depots in Ogden, Utah; McClellan AFB, CA; and Kelly AFB,
Texas. 

In terms of economic impact, the depot employs a workforce of
approximately 2,000 with a payroll of $87.3 million. Total annual
operating costs for the depot amount to $264 million which includes
salaries, transportation, utilities, supplies and contracts.
