Civilian employees serve a vital role in supporting the Army mission by providing the skills that are not readily available in the military, but crucial to support military operations. We are an integral part of the Army team providing mission-essential support to the Soldier. We are federal civil servants and we are committed to selfless service in the performance of our duties in support of our nation.
