Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In January 2005, the Chief of Staff of the Army established Task Force Stability Operations to assess Army-wide capability gaps in planning for and conducting stability operations, now known as Stability, Security, Transition, & Reconstruction Operations (SSTR). Also in 2005, the Department of Defense published DOD Directive 3000.5 which requires that the Army develop specific programs, engineering capabilities, and personnel to ensure success in future SSTR environments worldwide. The US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), through the development of its Field Force Engineering (FFE) program in late 2003 has been providing technical engineering support to the Combatant Commands (COCOMs) during military contingencies and catastrophic natural disasters. This paper assesses the current USACE FFE program, its support of the COCOMs, Army Service Component Commands (ASCCs), and U.S. Joint Task Forces (JTFs) during contingencies and natural disasters, and its proposed expansion to facilitate successful future SSTR operations. Recommendations are provided to enhance the USACE's overall SSTR engineering effectiveness allowing improvements that will allow USACE to improve its support to the COCOMs and enhance their regional Theater Security Cooperation Plans.

Book excerpt: Army engineer support to U.S. Central Command's joint maneuver force during the Persian Gulf War was massive and critical. Over 100 active and reserve component engineer units contributed significantly to the success of Operation DESERT SHIELD/DESERT STORM. These contributions are well documented in Supporting the Troops: The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in the Persian Gulf War. The Gulf War dramatically demonstrated the need to deploy engineers early so that they can determine the engineer requirements, communicate those requirements to the maneuver commanders, and take appropriate steps to bed down and sustain U.S. forces. The delayed flow of engineers and their equipment into Southwest Asia directly affected the ability of the maneuver units to sustain themselves and operate effectively. We are now moving toward a smaller, quality Army with rapidly deployable forces. There are fewer engineer units than in 1990, and a larger proportion of the engineer force is in the reserve components. As the active component force continues to shrink, we must insure that the reserve component engineer forces are well trained and ready to deploy on short notice. During the Gulf War engineers provided the model for the Total Army concept, successfully blending Active Army, Army National Guard, Army Reserve, and Department of Defense civilian engineer capabilities. U.S. forces could not have succeeded in the Gulf without the assistance of the reserve components and civilians. The force structure of today's Active Army does not include a number of specialized engineer units needed to support a large-scale deployment. Nor do operational engineer units have all the special expertise that can be found inthe U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. As Supporting the Troops vividly illustrates, the contributions of the Corps' military and civilian members were diverse and significant. Over 160 Corps civilians, who voluntarily deployed to Southwest Asia, provided procurement, design, construction, and real estate support. Corps members worked diligently, often in difficult conditions, to provide for the well-being and safety of tens of thousands of U.S. soldiers. They devised creative solutions to the problems they, encountered, whether implementing new policies or developing new project designs. It was my privilege to serve with them in the Persian Gulf.

Download or read book Spearhead of Logistics written by Benjamin King and published by Government Printing Office. This book was released on 2016-02-25 with total page 584 pages. 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.

Book excerpt: The effectiveness of the engineer organization described in the Concept for Support Command and Control at Echelons above Corps (Theater Support Command Concept) is analyzed in this monograph. The research hypothesis was: The engineer command and control organizational structure described in the Theater Support Command (TSC) Concept is the organization to most effectively meet the military engineering needs of the force projection Army of the twenty-first century. This monograph describes the TSC organizations that were experimented with in the Prairie Warrior 95 and 96 Advanced Warfighting Experiments. Key observations made by the TRADOC Combined Arms Assessment Team (CAAT) regarding theater engineer support and the TSC during these exercises were identified. The CAAT's key observations were then analyzed to identify what organizational characteristics the theater organization must have to best meet the Army's future engineering needs. The findings from this study do not fully support the research hypothesis. The findings indicate that the TSC may require a habitually associated, modular and tailorable engineer command and control (and/or planning) capability that is primarily focused on the engineer battlefield function of general engineering in the communications zone. The findings also indicate that theater commander may also require a habitually associated, modular and tailorable engineer command and control element that is focused on all five engineer battlefield functions throughout the theater.

This book was released on 2015-08-24 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication, Army Techniques Publication ATP 4-92 (FM 4-92) Contracting Support to Unified Land Operations October 2014, describes Army contracting support elements' role, organization and operations in support of unified land operations. ATP 4-92 is a revision of Field Manual 4-92, Contracting Support Brigade, last published in 2010. Operational contract support (OCS) is the process of planning for and obtaining supplies, services, and construction from commercial sources in support of combatant commander directed operations. While varying in scope and scale, OCS, and its subset of expeditionary contacting capability, is a critical force multiplier in unified land operations, especially long-term stability operations. With a smaller Army, less robust active component sustainment capability, and greater emphasis on Phase 0 operations, the critical importance of operational contract support and its associated expeditionary contracting structure may increase as a necessary force augmentation capability in future operations. Accordingly, the Army continues to enhance its capability to plan and provide OCS for deployed Army and joint forces. This contracting-focused ATP is one of numerous initiatives to inform the operating force on the importance of OCS planning and integration, again with focus on the Army's expeditionary contracting force structure, in all phases of operations. ATP 4-92-along with the publications referenced throughout this manual-is intended to provide commanders and their staffs with the doctrinal and policy tools necessary to properly leverage the full spectrum of Army OCS capabilities in all phases of the operation. The publication also serves as a guide for worldwide deployment and employment of expeditionary Army contracting organizational capabilities. ATP 4-92 clarifies existing doctrine, which was focused on the CSB. Updates include mission command philosophy, the revised contracting support organizational structure, other contracting or operational contract support organizations, as well as expanded discussions of financial management (FM) in support of contracting actions. Updates also include expanded discussion on Army expeditionary contracting support to joint operations. ATP 4-92 contains three chapters: Chapter 1 provides an overview of contracting and operational contract support organizations, including the contracting support brigade and its subordinate units, along with USACE, INSCOM, LOGCAP, and ASA(ALT) forward. It also discusses command authority versus contracting authority, as well as contracting support considerations with respect to the Army force generation model. Chapter 2 includes contracting support considerations in the notional phases of the operation, from Joint Publication (JP) 3-0, as well as guidance for contracting support planning and execution, to include the vital link with financial management. Chapter 3 provides an overview of joint contracting considerations, to include lead Service and joint theater support considerations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of documents, including many previously unpublished, details the role of the Army engineers in the American Revolution. Lacking trained military engineers, the Americans relied heavily on foreign officers, mostly from France, for sorely needed technical assistance. Native Americans joined the foreign engineer officers to plan and carry out offensive and defensive operations, direct the erection of fortifications, map vital terrain, and lay out encampments. During the war Congress created the Corps of Engineers with three companies of engineer troops as well as a separate geographer's department to assist the engineers with mapping. Both General George Washington and Major General Louis Lebéque Duportail, his third and longest serving Chief Engineer, recognized the disadvantages of relying on foreign powers to fill the Army's crucial need for engineers. America, they contended, must train its own engineers for the future. Accordingly, at the war's end, they suggested maintaining a peacetime engineering establishment and creating a military academy. However, Congress rejected the proposals, and the Corps of Engineers and its companies of sappers and miners mustered out of service. Eleven years passed before Congress authorized a new establishment, the Corps of Artillerists and Engineers.
