4th Personnel Services Battalion
As the Army continues the transformation process, the Fort Carson personnel community is also going through its own reorganization. The 4th Personnel Services Battalion lost a total of 79 soldiers as a result of the battalion's deactivation in September 2002, as it arrives at its endstate of 102 personnel. The long-term goal for the personnel transformation will be the deactivation of PSBs across the Army. In the long term, all the PSBs will go away - by 2007 or 2008. The Army is looking at re-establishing what's left of the battalion, under the model that will exist under personnel transformation in 2007 or 2008. This way this installation will have to absorb the turbulence of personnel transformation only once.
The 4th PSB's concept for supporting 16,500 soldiers with only 88 soldiers is truly revolutionary. The 4th PSB has created three multi-functional Personnel Management Centers and one personnel sustainment cell. The three PMCs are fully operational and servicing soldiers in the 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment and the 3rd Brigade Support Team.
