Helping out PV2 Goodell, Idaho Army National Guard Spc. Liam Pannepacker makes an attempt to loosen a jammed bolt in a piece of equipment. Closing in on the last few days of annual training, the wheel vehicle mechanics of the 145th BSB have picked up the pace of maintenance and repair activity. A substantial portion of annual training was accomplished by the maintenance soldiers of the 145th BSB. Each day a new challenge was presented to them in the form of routine maintenance on vehicles and sudden unexpected repairs on equipment already in use for scheduled training. As part of the 116th Cavalry Brigade Combat Team, the 145th Brigade Support Battalion supports the entire brigade with a diverse logistical support mission and organizational structure within the Idaho Army National Guard. The 145th BSB is located in Lewiston (HHC), Boise (C Company), Idaho Falls (A and B Company), and forward support companies in Jerome, Post Falls and Rigby, Idaho. The 145th BSB was one of the last units to conduct annual training on the Orchard Combat Training Center during 2021. One of the main goals of this year’s annual training was to conduct premobilization training to prepare soldiers and the unit for an upcoming deployment.
