This team typically includes the Operations Section Chief, Planning Section Chief, Logistics Section Chief, and Finance/Administration Section Chief.

Command Staff positions typically include roles such as Incident Commander, Public Information Officer, and Safety Officer. However, positions like Operations Section Chief or Logistics Section Chief are not considered Command Staff; they fall under the General Staff. The Command Staff focuses on overall management and communication during an incident.
When all general staff sections are activated, the Logistics Section is responsible for identifying, assigning, and supervising the resources needed to accomplish the incident objectives. This section ensures that necessary personnel, equipment, and supplies are available and coordinated effectively to support the operational needs of the incident management team.
In the context of army staff, G34 typically refers to the staff section responsible for logistics and sustainment related to sustainment operations. Specifically, the "G" denotes a general staff section, and the number indicates its focus area, with G34 often dealing with supply chain management, maintenance, and resource allocation to ensure that troops are adequately supported in the field. This section plays a critical role in coordinating logistics to maintain operational readiness.
