Property management responsibilities

[dmclean]

I'm a YG 08 Lieutenant, currently serving as a PL in Iraq. The platoon is a full tank platoon, augmented with 8 riflemen and 3 combat engineers. I am signed for 15 vehicles, all of which we use for various mission sets. My question is in regards to an ODA Commander's property management responsibilities. I find that as a platoon leader, my additional duties often compete for time with planning for operations and training with the platoon. The best mitigator for this has been strict time management and late nights planning, but I will never be comfortable with even the smallest compromises when it comes to planning and mission prep. I was naive when I joined with hopes of being a Platoon Leader; I never knew how much of my job would be not just managing my property, but doing property work for the CO and XO as an additional duty. The prospect of being a "soldier first and an officer second" is lost (and possibly implausible) in the regular Army.

What are the ODA commander's responsibilities when it comes to property? Less responsibilities than a PL so that he can be more of a part of the team training and team planning? Or more responsibilities so that he can enable the team to focus on training and planning? In short: as an ODA Commander would "2062", "PBUSE" and "OCEI" still be a regular part of my vocabulary? I'm just trying to increase my situational awareness so I can decide if putting in a packet for SFAS is the right option for me.
