In January 1968 it was again de-activated in Knoxville, Tennessee. On 17 January 2006 the command was renamed as the 316th Sustainment Command and fully activated on 17 September 2006 in Coraopolis, Pennsylvania. Between January and February 2007 elements of the command were mobilised for service during the War on Terrorism.
