Book excerpt: At the request of the Chief of Naval Operations, the National Research Council (NRC) conducted a study to determine the technological requirements, operational changes, and combat service support structure necessary to land and support forces ashore under the newly evolving Navy and Marine Corps doctrine. The Committee on Naval Expeditionary Logistics, operating under the auspices of the NRC's Naval Studies Board, was appointed to (1) evaluate the packaging, sealift, and distribution network and identify critical nodes and operations that affect timely insertion of fuels, ammunition, water, medical supplies, food, vehicles, and maintenance parts and tool blocks; (2) determine specific changes required to relieve these critical nodes and support forces ashore, from assault through follow-on echelonment; and (3) present implementable changes to existing support systems, and suggest the development of innovative new systems and technologies to land and sustain dispersed units from the shoreline to 200 miles inland. In the course of its study, the committee soon learned that development of OMFTS is not yet at a stage to allow, directly, detailed answers to many of these questions. As a result, the committee addressed the questions in terms of the major logistics functions of force deployment, force sustainment, and force medical support, and the fundamental logistics issues related to each of these functions.

Book excerpt: "This purpose of this MBA Professional Report is to provide a portfolio for U.S. Navy logistics professionals who are members of, or whose primary function is to support U.S. naval expeditionary forces. The report will consolidate and clarify existing planning and logistics publications, guidance, instructions, and deployment procedures, and add elements of the aforementioned from other armed services and government agencies that are lacking in current U.S. Navy documents. The report will augment the Joint operational logistic planning process as it pertains to operational and tactical level planning. The report will also provide guidance based upon anecdotes and opinions of the author that are pertinent in developing unit or deployment-specific logistic support plans for U.S. naval expeditionary forces. Research was accomplished by reviewing numerous documents of military units and federal agencies whose principal responsibility is expeditionary warfare and supporting expeditionary forces. Conclusions and appendices address shortfalls in doctrine that are specific to logistics support of U.S. naval expeditionary forces and training of expeditionary logistics professionals. The appendices will consist of a boiler plate Operation Order (OPORD) that will provide a basic understanding of how to write and understand a basic order, checklists for pre-deployment preparation and deployment sustainment, and an overview of contingency contracting and host-nation support, that are all combined to crerate a working Logistics Handbook."--Page v.
Download or read book Sea Based Logistics Full Speed Ahead written by Joseph Haviland and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reduced access to and availability of forward-based military installations can impede the operational commander's reach in projecting combat power and constrain his logistics effort. Emerging concepts have been proposed that mitigate infrastructure reduction without sacrificing support to the fluid nature of logistics. Sea Based Logistics (SBL) is the conceptual centerpiece of how the United States Marine Corps (USMC) envisions logistics support and sustainment for the next century. This research project enthusiastically advocates SBL. After defining SBL and presenting the thesis, the paper begins with a brief historical perspective of sea basing and SBL. A summation of adopted business practices and developments in modern logistics as they pertain to SBL follows. The importance of sealift and current SBL capabilities provides a point of departure for SBL's future. Emphasis is placed on what present-day naval expeditionary forces can do to further exploit and encapsulate the fusion of SBL. The author's principal focus includes an analysis of what SBL offers the operational commander. The brief scope of this effort leaves opportunities for others to argue the many unresolved and difficult SBL issues. SBL provides the operational commander the means to further extend his operational reach through the integration of business practices, emerging technologies, and the use of available sealift platforms. With continued refinement and increased sophistication of SBL platforms, naval expeditionary forces will continue to provide the operational commander an added dimension and enhanced force multiplier. SBL provides the operational commander with the synchronization of the right forces, material, and support, in the right quantity, at the right place and right time.
Download or read book Force Multiplying Technologies for Logistics Support to Military Operations written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2014-12-15 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mission of the United States Army is to fight and win our nation's wars by providing prompt, sustained land dominance across the full range of military operations and spectrum of conflict in support of combatant commanders. Accomplishing this mission rests on the ability of the Army to equip and move its forces to the battle and sustain them while they are engaged. Logistics provides the backbone for Army combat operations. Without fuel, ammunition, rations, and other supplies, the Army would grind to a halt. The U.S. military must be prepared to fight anywhere on the globe and, in an era of coalition warfare, to logistically support its allies. While aircraft can move large amounts of supplies, the vast majority must be carried on ocean going vessels and unloaded at ports that may be at a great distance from the battlefield. As the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq have shown, the costs of convoying vast quantities of supplies is tallied not only in economic terms but also in terms of lives lost in the movement of the materiel. As the ability of potential enemies to interdict movement to the battlefield and interdict movements in the battlespace increases, the challenge of logistics grows even larger. No matter how the nature of battle develops, logistics will remain a key factor. Force Multiplying Technologies for Logistics Support to Military Operations explores Army logistics in a global, complex environment that includes the increasing use of antiaccess and area-denial tactics and technologies by potential adversaries. This report describes new technologies and systems that would reduce the demand for logistics and meet the demand at the point of need, make maintenance more efficient, improve inter- and intratheater mobility, and improve near-real-time, in-transit visibility. Force Multiplying Technologies also explores options for the Army to operate with the other services and improve its support of Special Operations Forces. This report provides a logistics-centric research and development investment strategy and illustrative examples of how improved logistics could look in the future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spearhead of Logistics is a narrative branch history of the U.S. Army's Transportation Corps, first published in 1994 for transportation personnel and reprinted in 2001 for the larger Army community. The Quartermaster Department coordinated transportation support for the Army until World War I revealed the need for a dedicated corps of specialists. The newly established Transportation Corps, however, lasted for only a few years. Its significant utility for coordinating military transportation became again transparent during World War II, and it was resurrected in mid-1942 to meet the unparalleled logistical demands of fighting in distant theaters. Finally becoming a permanent branch in 1950, the Transportation Corps continued to demonstrate its capability of rapidly supporting U.S. Army operations in global theaters over the next fifty years. With useful lessons of high-quality support that validate the necessity of adequate transportation in a viable national defense posture, it is an important resource for those now involved in military transportation and movement for ongoing expeditionary operations. This text should be useful to both officers and noncommissioned officers who can take examples from the past and apply the successful principles to future operations, thus ensuring a continuing legacy of Transportation excellence within Army operations. Additionally, military science students and military historians may be interested in this volume.
