Command Sergeant Major Tomas
Erazo entered the Army in 1971 at the age of 17 and trained as a Supply
Specialist. Throughout his
career, CSM Erazo served in a variety of key positions at line units including
the Property Book Noncommissioned Officer in Charge of the 3/5th
Infantry, Ft. Kobbe, Panama, Logistics Noncommissioned Officer in Charge,
Mayaguez Campus, Puerto Rico, 1st Sergeant of HHC/A Company, 801st
Main Support Battalion, Ft. Campbell, Kentucky, and Command Sergeant Major, 4th
Division Support Command, Ft. Hood, Texas. This
unit was organized as the first digitized DISCOM in the Army with the
responsibility to reorganize under a consolidated Combat Service Support
structure, train and test new technologies under the Force XXI initiative.
CSM Erazo quickly became the subject matter expert in consolidated
logistics operations and established a training plan which set the division up
for success in its testing phase at the
National
Training
Center. It
is because of his hands-on style of leadership, the DISCOM and Division were so
successful. CSM Erazo retired with
over thirty years service in 2001.
