The 21st Theater Support Command was re-named as the 21st Theater Sustainment Command on July 16, 2007. The current mission of the 21st TSC is much expanded from prior, to include broader functionality and support of operations outside of the European theater.
The 21st Theater Sustainment Command is U.S. Army Europe and Africa's lead organization for all sustainment activities including logistics support, transportation, combat sustainment, human resources, finance, contracting and other areas in the field of sustainment. The 21st TSC also serves as the responsible headquarters for USAREUR-AF's Military Police, Medical and Sustainment brigades, providing combat engineers and military police to partnership training and other operations in support of USAREUR-AF, U.S. Africa Command and U.S. Central Command. Headquartered in Kaiserslautern, Germany, with units throughout the USAREUR-AF Area of Operations, the 21st TSC is truly positioned to be USAREUR-AF's key enabler, where it is needed, when it is needed.
