ADSEC: Difference between revisions

Because ADSEC moved with front lines, it did not have a "base" of operations and was designed to be on the move continuously. Instead, major operations always had a designated "D" day or start date, upon (or a few days after) which, ADSEC units were moved into the ''operating areas''. They stayed until about D+40, then moved on to the next "D" location, leaving [[FECOMZ]] (Forward Echelon, Communications Zone) units to take over. By the end of the war, the Com-Z was comprised of the United Kingdom Base, Channel Base, Normandy Base, Oise Intermediate Base, Seine Base Sections, the Bremen Port Command established to move materiel to the [[Asia-Pacific Theater]] of Operations]], and the Assembly Area Command to move men to the PTO or home. In addition, the Com-Z also comprised the Delta Base and Continental Advance Section (CONAD) coming from southern France in support of the [[Sixth United States Army Group]].
