Members of the 8th Theater Sustainment Command's newly-formed Humanitarian Assistance Survey Team transport and set up their expeditionary command post as part of a validation exercise at Schofield Barracks, Hawaii, June 2-6. The exercise prepared the team for its first three-month rotation as U.S. Army Pacific's primary on-call HAST element by assessing its ability to self-sufficiently deploy, survey, and facilitate requested humanitarian assistance throughout the region within 12-24 hours of notification.
