Combat Support Associates and CSA, Ltd. brought together an experienced and cost-effective international workforce consisting of more than 24 nationalities, all working toward one goal: unlimited excellence. Employees at all levels have dedicated themselves to a wide range of assignments, including:

The terrorist attacks in the United States on Sept. 11, 2001 significantly expanded the number of ground forces stationed in Kuwait. The dynamics of responding to the immediate increase in equipment, logistics and soldier needs were tests that Combat Support Associates and CSA, Ltd. passed with flying colors. That January and continuing through 2002, equipment from Europe and Qatar was shipped to Kuwait, and Combat Support Associates and CSA, Ltd. employees made all deadlines to prepare it for issue. From November 2002 to February 2003, Combat Support Associates and CSA, Ltd. responded flawlessly to soldier service and activity needs; the 3rd Infantry Division proceeded to the Kuwait/Iraqi border with equipment issued by the company. On March 19, 2003, U.S. ground military operations against Iraq began. The company was a tried and tested workforce that had responded to every need of its U.S. Army Central Command --Kuwait (ARCENT-KU) customer, and this commitment continued in war. CSSC-K workers braved more than 20 sounded alerts as missiles were inbound for Kuwait and U.S. Patriot missiles were fired in response. Whether doing office work, sitting behind a computer, working on a tank in the shops with temperatures in excess of 90 degrees, or working outside in dust storms, Combat Support Associates and CSA, Ltd. employees were characterized by their dedication and determination.
