About 24 Soldiers with Company C, 230th Financial Management Company, 541st Combat Sustainment Support Battalion of the 1st Infantry Division Sustainment Brigade, are set to return to Fort Riley in the near future following a nine-month deployment to Bagram and Kabul, Afghanistan. The deployment was in support of Operations Enduring Freedom and Freedom’s  Sentinel.

While deployed, the Soldiers provided financial management operations, to include pay support to all service members, civilians and contractors to the eastern, northern and capital regions of Afghanistan. They accurately dispersed U.S. and Afghan currency while facilitating a near-cashless battledfield and paying-agent process and enhancing the development of host-nation banking systems.

The unit deployed in early November.
