Book excerpt: The disruption of the national economy and the delay in delivery of military supplies which developed during World War I convinced Congress of the wisdom of industrial preparedness. The National Defense Act of 1920 charged the Assistant Secretary of War with the 'supervision of the procurement of all military supplies and other business of the War Department pertaining thereto and the assurance of adequate provision for the mobilization of materiel and industrial organizations essential to war-time needs.' The italicized phrase conveyed authority for the far-reaching procurement planning program which began in 1920 and continued until our entrance into World War II.

This book was released on 2012-09-16 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a study of the medical logistics system that supported the U.S. forces in the maneuver phase of the Iraq War, 20 March to 1 May 2003. It begins with a review of logistical lessons learned from retired logisticians stretching from World War II to the Gulf War with an emphasis on the challenges in building a logistical support system in a new theater of operations. Next, the evolution of U.S. Army medical logistics is reviewed leading up to the units, policies, and resources available to support the Iraq War. The creation of the medical logistical support system in Qatar and Kuwait is then described, stretching from the initial site selection for the regional medical logistical warehouse in the summer of 2002 through the execution of medical logistical support in the maneuver phase of the ground war in the spring of 2003. Finally, an evaluation of the performance of the medical logistic support, utilizing the lessons learned discussed earlier, is presented with recommendations for improved performance in the future. This study concludes that the medical logistics support system was not functioning properly when the ground war began on 20 March 2003. Several factors contributed to the medical logistics problems, including garrison procedures not simulating field procedures, weak communications and a lack of infrastructure in Kuwait, but the late arrival of medical logistics units into Kuwait was the main reason for the poor performance of medical logistics in the Iraq War. While the medical community had been deeply involved in planning for the deployment, the decision by the Department of Defense to discard the Time Phased Force Deployment List in favor of a Force Package approach meant that many critical logistical units were pushed to the end of the deployment cycle. Instead of two medical logistical battalions and one medical logistical company supporting the Vth Corps units in Kuwait and Iraq, only the medical logistical company was present during the Reception, Staging, Onward Movement, and Integration phase and functioning during the opening weeks of the ground campaign. Since the medical logistics system was not functioning properly during the drive to Baghdad, the combat health support system was not capable of treating heavy casualties had they been encountered.

Book excerpt: From the Preface and Introduction - The Medical Department: Medical Service in the European Theater of Operations is the second of three volumes recounting the overseas activities of the U.S. Army Medical Department in World War II. Charles M.Wiltse's volume on the Mediterranean and minor theaters was published in 1963, and a completed manuscript dealing with the war against Japan now exists in the Center of Military History. These volumes deal primarily with the operational and organizational history of Army medicine in the theaters, as distinguished from the clinical volumes published by the Office of the Surgeon General. In each case the combat narrative has been drawn from relevant volumes in the United States Army in World War II series, as well as from the large body of subsequent scholarship. Our aim has been to show how the military medical system organized itself in a combat theater; how medical planning was integrated with logistical and tactical planning; how medical troops were organized, trained and deployed; how hospitals were built and supplies assembled and moved forward; and how casualties were treated and evacuated from the field of battle. Although readily admitting the importance of combat service support forces, military students and historians alike tend to concentrate on combat and combat support units when studying operations, giving only passing attention to the vital work of the logisticians, signalmen, transport troops, and the rest. This is regrettable, for the operations of combat service support units-especially in a global conflict like World War II with its vast distances and varied terrains-have much to teach us about modern warfare, lessons that remain of surpassing importance to our profession. The Medical Department: Medical Service in the European Theater of Operations supports the proposition that the experience of medical personnel in war directly stimulates advances in medical science. More importantly, it demonstrates that the organization of health care in the combat zones, including evacuation of the wounded, control of disease among troops and civilian populations, and care of prisoners of war, contributed directly to the Allied victory. The exploits of the doctors, corpsmen, and medical support units provide a model for the planning and organization of medical support in today's Army.

This book was released on 2017-07-13 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Army Techniques Publication (ATP), "Army Medical Logistics," ATP 4-02.1 addresses the role of medical logistics (MEDLOG) in the Army Health System (AHS). It covers MEDLOG operations from the support battalions at the tactical level to the medical command (deployment support) (MEDCOM [DS]) and theater sustainment command where the critical crossover occurs between strategic agencies within the AHS and commands and the operational units providing logistics support in-theater. Army MEDLOG, as one of the ten medical functions, is an integral part of the AHS. It provides intensive life cycle management of medical products and services that are used almost exclusively by the AHS and its joint partners and are critical to the successful delivery of Army medical capabilities. Army MEDLOG support is tailored to anticipate and effectively respond to medical requirements through the provision of uninterrupted, end-to-end sustainment of the AHS mission across the range of military operations. Providing timely and effective AHS support is a team effort which integrates the clinical and operational aspects of the mission and requires collaboration between the medical logisticians, health care providers, distribution managers, and other partners within the Military Health System. Army MEDLOG includes management of the following functions: Medical materiel (Class VIIIA); Medical equipment maintenance and repair; Optical fabrication and repair; Patient movement items (PMI); Medical gases; Blood (Class VIIIB) storage and distribution; Regulated medical waste (including hazardous material); Medical facilities and infrastructure; Medical contracting.
