[edit] History
Having been restructured from a corps support group, the 593rd Sustainment Brigade as part of the transformation of the United States Army, the 593rd was one of the last units to complete its transfer into a sustainment brigade. A ceremonly was held on May 1, 2007 in Al Asad, Iraq, where the unit was stationed, to mark the completion of the unit's transformation. This ceremony featured soldiers donning the unit's new Shoulder Sleeve Insignia designed by members of the unit's staff. Though stationed at Fort Lewis, Washington, the unit completed its transformation while serving in Iraq.
