Battalion command team members and staff from the 85th U.S. Army Reserve Support Command and First Army pause for a photo with World War II Veteran, Al Mampre, during the last day of the 85th USARSC’s Battalion Commanders Huddle briefing, Mar. 10, 2019. Mampre was assigned to the famed Easy Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne Division, who participated in the D-Day invasion of Normandy. Their story was later featured in the HBO mini-series “Band of Brothers”. The purpose of the briefing was to understand the 85th USARSC commanding general’s vision statement of Enhancing Lethality with Superior Service, Proactive Support and World Class Trainers, while creating a shared understanding of the command relationship, where they are as an organization, and where the command is heading. The organization shares in a multi-component partnership with First Army, supporting observer coach/trainer support to ensure readiness of deploying forces. (U.S. Army Reserve photo by Anthony L.
