What PLTs are in the BSB Alpha Company?

• A. Transportation, Supply, Fuel and Water
• B. Transportation, Maintenance, Medical
• C. Security, Logistics, Communications
• D. Transportation

Answer: (A)

In a Brigade Support Battalion, company-level platoons are organized around core sustainment functions that keep the unit moving and fed. For Alpha Company, the platoons are named after these key logistics roles: Transportation handles moving people and cargo, Supply takes care of provisioning and issuing general supplies, and Fuel and Water provides the essential fuel and water distribution to units. Together, these three platoons cover the essential mobility and provisioning tasks the company supports.

The other options mix in functions that aren’t part of Alpha Company’s platoon lineup. Maintenance, Medical, Security, and Communications belong to different units or sections within the broader sustainment or support structure, not within Alpha Company as a set of three platoons focused on transportation, provisioning, and fuel/water. A single Transportation platoon would leave out critical support needs, so it isn’t the complete answer.
