Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Field Manual 10-1, “Quartermaster Principles,” is the Army's capstone manual for Quartermaster (QM) corps soldiers and units. It focuses on current doctrine in FMS 100-5, 100-10, and 100-16. It also considers recent combat experience from operations Desert Shield/Storm; guidance in TRADOC Pamphlet 525-5 and the Combined Arms Support Command's publication “Vision of Combined Arms Support;” and information form TRADOC battle labs and warfighting lens analyses. Since 1775, the QMC has provided logistical support to the Unites States Army's combat forces. During its long history, it has developed a special one-to-one relationship between quartermasters and supported soldiers. 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.

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. The manual provides basic doctrinal discussion on the organization and operations of Quartermaster units within the Army. 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. Quartermaster Warrant Officer Advanced Course Students provided input based on their personal experiences as well as comments and input taken throughout the Army sustainment community. This publication, Field Manual FM 4-40 (FM 10-1) Quartermaster Operations, provides fundamental guidance for the employment of United States (U.S.) Army quartermaster organizations deployed in support of joint and multinational operations across the spectrum of conflict. The principal audience for field manual (FM) 4-40 is personnel of all grades and levels performing in quartermaster positions. FM 4-40 establishes Army doctrine for quartermaster operations by providing overarching doctrinal direction for quartermaster operations conducted in support of decisive action detailed in other Army manuals. FM 4-40 also provides a foundation for the development of appropriate tactics, techniques, and procedures. Commanders and staffs of Army headquarters serving as joint task force or multinational headquarters should also refer to applicable joint or multinational doctrine concerning the range of military operations and joint or multinational forces. Trainers and educators throughout the Army will also use this manual.

This book was released on 2012-12-04 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This manual, “Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures for Quartermaster Field Service Company, Direct Support (FM 42-414),” describes the mission, organization, and operations of both companies in terms of performing SLCRs as section/team concept under the SLCR platoons for the QM FSC, M. New doctrinal concepts supporting this structural idea for the QM FSCs are included in this manual and at the same time, providing field service applications in today's setup. However, this manual implements a new way of performing the mission by the QM FSC, DS as it materializes into the new QM FSC, M in supporting the U. S. Army into the twenty-first century. This manual is for all QM FSC personnel. All soldiers should use this manual along with FMs 10-1, 10-27-2, and 63 series. FM 42-414 is meant to be a doctrinal guide, not a precision directive.
Download or read book The Process of Military Distribution Management written by James H. Henderson and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2006 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a guide for Logistician's (military or civilian) in the execution of Movement Control and Distribution Management. - Provides examples of procedures and guidance utilized by our armed forces operating in Iraq to date, as well as being reviewed as emerging doctrine for the future. - Presents information for staff management that incorporates manual and automated procedures to monitor and track movement and commodities on today's modern battlefields. - Provides a process to utilize data from different automation systems, which do not talk to one another, as well as incorporates manual procedures to develop a system to monitor and track movement and commodities on today's modern battlefields. By doing this, we have provided the commander with a focused staff battle rhythm that works. Due to the Army Transformation and Spiral Development, there is a lack of documentation on just how to interpret and implement the new concepts and automation applications, and synchronize their usage and development. Many of the ideas and process in this book have not advanced beyond the conjectural level. The work covered is an initial effort to make operational these new ideas and procedures and provide them as training in a classroom and wartime environment. The uniqueness of the logistical mission and the technology of these services, this book may be guided towards a rather select audience. But due to the tactics and methods being used by our enemies in the field, it is important to understand that at all levels, the ability to have visibility and command and control of movement within our battle space is essential.

Download or read book Military Logistics Made Easy written by James H. Henderson and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2008 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You already know that logistics is hard, it should not be, but it just is. The key components to supply and movement consist of receive, store, issue, and move. It should be that simple. Bottom line: it just is not that simple. There are too many moveable parts where the synergy of the operation could provide a scenario where the combined requirements needed to sustain a theater are greater than the sum of their individual effects or capabilities. . This book outlines some of these logistical components and their doctrinal relationship to the operation, as well as provides some new ideas. . The chapters are formatted in a fashion that offer the reader the doctrinal concept that the operation or function is based on, and then presents new theories on how to better execute the logistical function or capability as it relates to the operation. . The goal is to discuss those hard logistical topics and their conception to improve the general knowledge and understanding on "why it happens", and "how we can improve the outcome".
