Book excerpt: Army field manual (FM) 4-40, Quartermaster Operations, is the revision of the obsolete FM 10-1, Quartermaster Principles. FM 4-40 provides logisticians and field commanders an understanding of Quartermaster principles, organizations, and procedures within the context of decisive action.

This manual updates FM 10-1, incorporating modular unit capabilities, designs and concepts, plus updated terminology IAW ADP 3-0 and ADRP 3-0 and other commensurate doctrine into FM 4-40. In rewriting the manual, chapter content on individual commodity areas was consolidated to produce three chapters from 19 chapters: one covering fundamentals, one covering all supply functions, and one covering field services. The net effect was to reduce the manual from 130 pages to 60 pages. Other key changes in this manual include the addition of a foreword to highlight the importance of the Global Combat Support System - Army, the identification of strategic partners that support Quartermaster functions, expanded discussion of supply chain management, and operational energy. The FM also addresses modernization in both the aerial delivery and mortuary affairs force designs. The manual also further expands on the two Quartermaster core competencies; supply and field services. FM 4-40 contains three chapters: Chapter 1 provides an overview of Quartermaster Operations. This chapter describes the Quartermaster functions, enabling organizations and mission command systems. The fundamentals of logistics command systems and how they enable commanders to gain a common operational picture is also noted. Chapter 1 defines support relationships, management functions, and requirements for total asset visibility. Chapter 2 discusses supply operations, reviews classes of supply, discusses multi-modal operations, and establishes an overview for unit supply operations. Specifically, mentioned are distribution hubs, supply support activities, accountability and responsibility, property records, inventories, and adjustments reports. Chapter 3 discusses Quartermaster Field Service Operations and how they are employed and generate combat power for the combatant commander. The chapter provides a brief overview of aerial delivery, clothing and textile repair, food services, shower and laundry, mortuary affairs, water purification, and force provider. FM 4-40 was developed in close coordination with the United States Army Combined Arms Support Command and Quartermaster School.

Since 1775, the QMC has provided logistical support to the Unites States Army's combat forces.

This has been a critical factor in the success of the Corps and the keystone to its heritage. QM soldiers and units have a dual responsibility. They must be technically proficient and prepared to provide supply and field service support to the force. And, they must be tactically proficient and prepared to deploy as quickly as the combat and combat support forces. Once deployed, they must be able to fight and defend themselves. At the same time, they must concurrently provide logistical support to an extended battlefield. The QMC is one of the more complex and diverse branches of the Army. It has personnel proponency for 11 enlisted military occupational specialties (MOSs) in three career management fields, four warrant officers MOSs, and five officer areas of concentration. QM personnel serve in every type of unit – from units at the forward line of own troop (FLOT) to the theater rear boundary. These units range from light infantry to armor units, from special operations units to personnel and administration units, from artillery to signal units and from ordnance to transportation units. This manual looks at the role of quartermasters and QM units as they function on the battlefield. It will guide the development of quartermaster doctrine, tactics, techniques, and procedures related to: supply and storage, Army field feeding, general supply, water supply, mortuary affairs, petroleum supply and airdrop support operations. It also will serve as a guide for future development of training, leader development, organizations, materiel, and soldier support. This manual sets guidelines for unit commanders and their staffs operating within the Army's support structure. Further it: realigns supply and field service functions within the Quartermaster Corps (QMC) and explains how they relate to classes of supply and field services; explains to combat arms, combat support and combat service support commanders and their staff how and where they will receive QM proponent supply and field services support; introduces QM unit missions and explains unit operations; outlines relationships between the various levels of supply and field services support.
