2 verified openings
The Joint Munitions Command stood down at Rock Island Arsenal on June 10, 2026, in a casing of the colors ceremony, and its functions moved under Army Sustainment Command. What moved is substantial: a global munitions stockpile valued at more than $69 billion, production of billions of rounds a year, and the demilitarization of tens of thousands of tons of obsolete inventory, plus the ammunition support behind Operation Enduring Freedom, Operation Iraqi Freedom, and recent shipments to Ukraine. The Army's stated aim for the move is an end-to-end munitions lifecycle, wholesale to retail.
The ammunition enterprise is industrial work: plants and depots that make, store, ship, and dispose of munitions, now run through Army Sustainment Command from Rock Island Arsenal in Illinois.
