This book was released on 1979 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines various facets of activating the National Defense Reserve Force. Its history and background are reviewed and its present status of readiness considered. Specific areas covered are monetary costs, manpower capabilities (seagoing and ashore) as well as the physical condition and capabilities of the fleet. The sub-structure of the Reserve Fleet known as the Ready Reserve Force is covered in depth. In this area the inception of the ready force idea is presented along with its goals and accomplishments to date. Of unique interest is the joint funding of the Ready Reserve Force which is contributed to by both the Department of Commerce and the Department of Defense. Conclusions are drawn from its past performance, documented present status, and projected industrial capabilities. (Author).

Download or read book American Military History written by Daniel K. Blewett and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2008-12-30 with total page 469 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this companion volume to his 1995 bibliography of the same title, Daniel Blewett continues his foray into the vast literature of military studies. As did its predecessor, it covers land, air, and naval forces, primarily but not exclusively from a U.S. perspective, with the welcome emergence of small wars from publishing obscurity. In addition to identifying relevant organizations and associations, Blewett has gathered together the very best in chronologies, bibliographies, biographical dictionaries, indexes, journals abstracts, glossaries, and encyclopedias, each accompanied by a brief descriptive annotation. This work remains a pertinent addition to the general reference collections of public and academic libraries as well as special libraries, government documents collections, military and intelligence agency libraries, and historical societies and museums.

This book was released on 2018-04-02 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Strategic mobility, the capability to transport military forces rapidly across intercontinental distances into an operational theater, lies at the heart of US military strategy. Nowhere has the importance of strategic mobility been more evident than in Operation Desert Shield/Desert Storm, the military response to the Iraqi seizure of Kuwait that began in August 1990 and ended in March 1991. This study presents a detailed analysis of how the Defense Transportation System (DTS)--the United States Transportation Command, its service components, and the civilian transportation industry-provided the strategic mobility that enabled the United States and its allies to assemble an overwhelming military force to defeat Iraq and free Kuwait. It is also a tribute to the hard work and dedication of the military and civilian personnel who ran the DTS during the operation.
