Description: I was assigned to the 189th CSB while deployed to Iraq, and this was the shirt I was given, sadly it was not my size as I am 6'1 and 190lbs and this just would not fit. So it has been in storage since then. The mission of the 189th Corps Support Battalion (Airborne), is to, on order, deploy by all modes of transportation and provide DS ground maintenance, transportation, class V conventional ammunition, and class IX repair parts on a unit and area basis.
