DCST volunteers are responsible for a variety of duties while supporting the warfighter, assisting in natural disasters, and providing humanitarian relief. Here, at DCST Forward Bosnia, the DCST volunteers are working in a DLA DRMO storage location in Lukavac, Bosnia. Hazardous material is being removed for shipment to Germany and Hungary for disposal.


DCST team members often have interaction with the community they are supporting. Team members typically wear camoflauge uniforms and local civilians believe they are all part of the United States military.
