110 3rd Infantry Division Operations Infantry, a National Guard unit from Maryland and the 332nd Rear Operations Center, a National Guard unit from Wisconsin. The major MND-North operations during the September-October time frame were Operation Snake Charmer and Operation Lightning Hammer II. The purpose of Operation Snake Charmer was to defeat IED Cells in Southern Salah Ad Din in order to exploit recent success against AQI and enhance security. Operation Lightning Hammer II focused operations in the greater Lake Thar Thar region. The task was to destroy elements of AQI in order to degrade enemy capability, support reconciliation efforts, and set the conditions for TF Iron (1st AD) to retain the initiative. Both operations were successful in that they contributed to the reduction in the placement of IEDs. During September and October, the Brigade executed 675 Combat Logistics Patrols, drove nearly 1.3 million miles on Iraq’s most dangerous roads, executed more than 14,600 Transportation Movement Requests, issued approximately 16 million gallons of JP8, 700 thousand gallons of MOGAS, 6.6 million gallons of diesel, and conducted 60 recovery missions. The Brigade conducted a total of eight operational moves in September. Five of the moves were conducted by the 927 CSSB. The most daunting of these was 927 CSSB’s move of the 3-9 Iraqi Army from Taji to Basra. In an effort to continuously clear backlogs and meet other mission requirements, the 927 CSSB ran an average of five or more Combat Logistics patrols between Q-West and Camp Speicher daily. In mid-September, the 87th CSSB conducted a tactical move to East Marez in an effort to provide better command and control throughout MND-N. This move allowed the Brigade to have its three CSSBs spread throughout MND-N, one in the northern sector, one in the center, and one in the southern half of MND-N. This move also provided positive interface between each the 87th’s

The 3rd Sustainment Brigade continued its magnificent support throughout the fall and winter of 2007-2008. During this time frame, Provider conducted 335 Combat Logistics Patrols, drove over 765 thousand miles, issued nine million gallons of JP8 gas, 320 thousand gallons of Mogas, 2.1 million gallons of diesel and produced over 650 thousand cases of bottled water. It increased the Q-West stocks to 50 days of supply, issued 7 thousand cases of Meals Ready to Eat, provided showers for 2,500 Soldiers and civilians, and conducted 18 recovery missions. The 92 Engineer Battalion re-deployed in late October 2007. November of that year saw the redeployment of the 260 Quartermaster Battalion while the 385 Military Police Battalion redeployed in February 2008. The 3d Sustainment Brigade would bring their distinguished performance in OIF to a close in August 2008 when it was scheduled to transfer authority with the 16th Sustainment Brigade.
