	Using Forward Logistics Elements
		The 25th Division Support Command's (DISCOM's) use of FLEs to distribute logistics capabilities across the division's battlespace enabled those assets to support maneuver operations responsively and then to preserve their capabilities through aggressive rear battle (although the distinction between deep, close, and rear operations becomes blurred on a nonlinear modern battlefield).
		The division also fought as part of I Corps, which was located on the flank of a separate multinational coalition corps and was part of a combined joint task force.
		Major General James Dubik, the division's commanding general, chose to attack with his light forces through mountainous terrain on the left and right flanks and to focus the division's attached armored brigade in the center to achieve mass effects on the enemy.
