LOS ALAMITOS, Calif. — The 79th Sustainment Support Command officially opened its new 53,000 square-foot headquarters facility on Joint Forces Training Base Los Alamitos Jan. 12.
Hosting fellow Soldiers, civic leaders and community members was Maj. Gen. William D. Frink, Jr., 79th SSC commander.
"The structure behind me... is proof positive of U.S. Army commitment to our Army Reserve Soldiers," said Frink. "Our new home represents $29 million worth of construction in Southern California. This is tangible recognition of the Army Reserve as an indispensable force to our Nation."
For a sustainable future, Corps projects like this one are designed using the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design Program. LEED is how the U.S. Green Building Council rates a project for its design and achievement in categories like sustainability, water efficiency, energy conservation and design innovation.
"We demonstrate care for our community by ensuring we are good stewards of our environment," said Frink. "The building behind me is LEED Gold. It optimizes energy performance and was built with regional material to cut down on our carbon footprint. It has low water consumption and uses both renewable energy and recycled material."
Even the covered parking lots are an energy feature. Covered in a photo voltaic system that, according to Edward Desmond of Cox Construction of Vista, Calif., will produce 375 KVA [kilovolt-amps], generating enough power to offset the building's consumption on the Los Alamitos power grid.
The 79th SSC commands approximately 20,000 Army Reserve Soldiers and civilians across 19 states located west of the Mississippi River. By all accounts, this state-of-the-art facility is well equipped to enhance mission readiness and family well-being for such a geographically dispersed unit.
"I think it helps to build camaraderie," said Ann Nacino, Youth Services specialist. "It helps to build that connection with the Soldiers and civilians that support the command full time."
"This building tends to be a beacon for family members of all different services," said Sherry Rallis, Family Readiness community outreach assistant. "We really enjoy, as staff, collaborating with each other and welcoming family members and Soldiers that now have direct access to us, all in the same building."

YONGSAN GARRISON, Republic of Korea - Installation Management Command-Korea commander Brig. Gen. John Uberti and his senior noncommissioned officer, Command Sgt. Maj. Kevin Witt made a public service announcement March 4 that will air on the American Forces Network-Korea to spread the word about fire safety.
"The purpose of today's public service announcement is to increase community awareness, "Uberti said before the shoot. " We've had several structure fires on Army installations across the peninsula and by sheer luck we haven't lost any lives, but there's been a significant loss of property and damage to equipment."
The segment took stage at a badly damaged local family house to build awareness of the damage that can occur in a fire and emphasize fire safety.
"We just want to make sure that people are doing the things that they need to do to ensure that their environments are safe - Not overloading electrical outlets, making sure meals at home aren't unattended on the stove and making sure we properly extinguish candles when they're not being used."
There have been four fires in the past three months throughout installations across the region and the shoot was at one of the actual sites. A mach scenario was used for the PSA but the situation was real.
"It's very important that we get the word out about fire safety," Witt said. "We've had a rash of fires and we have really got to get the word out."
IMCOM-Korea is responsible for structures across the peninsula and Uberti said fire safety is a key concern. "This includes Soldiers' barracks, Army family housing, all of the office buildings that people work in - So again, we need everybody's help to ensure that the places they live and work in are safe."

Me, on the Captain's Chair, located at the Bridge. The Captain was not using his chair at the time. At the USS Lexington (CV-16).
The USS Lexington (CV-16) is one of 24 Essex-class aircraft carriers built during World War II for the United States Navy. Launched and commissioned in 1943, she was designated as an aviator training carrier in 1962, first as CVT-16 and later as AVT-16. She was retired in 1991 and brought to Corpus Christi, Texas, to serve as a floating museum. Her surviving sister ships USS Yorktown (CV-10), USS Intrepid (CV-11) and USS Hornet (CV-12) carry lower pennant numbers, but USS Lexington was laid down and commissioned earlier, making her the oldest remaining fleet carrier in the world. I visited this ship on April 20, 2021.
