"The 4th Sustainment Brigadeαs centralized receiving and shipping point (CRSP) represents a sustainment commanderαs response to the often competing demands for supporting the combat force in a nonlinear environment, while preserving the long-term capabilities of the sustainment force. Upon arrival in theater, the brigade commander recognized that there were too many sustainment vehicles on the road traveling to too many separate locations, resulting in less than fully synchronized support, while exposing Soldiers, leaders, and equipment to unnecessary danger." - Foreword
