Description:This book has maps, pictures, charts, and footnotes. It was published September 2018, and is part of a series but can be read standalone. "This book is a collection of 11 historical case studies of sustainment operations drawn from the past 100 years with lessons for modern largescale combat operations (LSCO). The work is organized chronologically specifically including World War I and II, Korean War, Vietnam War, Falklands War, Desert Storm, and Operation Iraqi Freedom. "Chapter 1 by Leo P. Hirrel, retired Quartermaster Historian, examines the maturation of US Army sustainment functions during World War I from vague notions into a workable organization structure. Dr. Sanders Marble, US Army Medical Command (MEDCOM) Senior Historian, focuses Chapter 2 on World War I’s medical functions and their effect on maintaining combat power in the US 1st Army area during the Meuse-Argonne Offensive. "The North Africa Campaign — as the US Army’s entry into the west during World War II is studied in Chapter 3 against the framework of AirLand Battle and logistical doctrine by Lieutenant Colonel (Retired) Mark D. Kitchen. In Chapter 4, Battle of Metz, Major Cory D. Campbell identifies lessons from the battle within today’s principles of sustainment. The logistical support and challenges of US, United Nations, and Republic of Korea forces transition from traditional to cold war is explored in Chapter 5 by Dr. James A. Huston, Professor of History. "Chapters 6 and 7 arguably do not cover LSCO. However, these case studies explore advancements in sustainment practices that were applied to future LSCO. Chapter 6, by Isaac W. Hampton II, Quartermaster Branch Chief Historian, explores Vietnam infrastructure build-up from 1962 to 1967, as the Army’s introduction to Operational Contracting Support. Lieutenant Colonel Michael J. Gunther, PhD program, King’s College, presents the only non-US logistics case study in Chapter 7. Lieutenant Colonel Gunther examines the application of British joint logistics to expeditionary operations against near-peer forces without the benefit of a secure logistical base in the area of operations. "Chapters 8 through 11 represent sustainment operations in the Middle East during Operation Desert Storm and Operation Iraqi Freedom. James B. Martin, Dean of Academics Command and General Staff College, studies VII Corps logistics operations in Operation Desert Storm — examining the sheer volume of support required and the lessons learned from such a major land combat operation. "Operation Iraqi Freedom I (OIF I) is examined from three perspectives. The strategic maneuver of 4th Infantry Division (Mechanized) — from 18 installations in the United States, Germany, and Italy to Iraq through Turkey, then through the Suez Canal and Kuwait — is studied in Chapter 9 by Mr. Kelvin D. Crow, Combined Arms Center Command Historian and Colonel (Retired) Christopher D. Croft, as an example of complex and chaotic strategic maneuver. Richard E. Killblane, Transportation Corps Historian, examines the doctrine of on-time delivery and the many unforeseen challenges that prevented it from the context of the 3rd Infantry Division and bottled water in Chapter 10. Kenneth Finlayson, CASCOM Command Historian, completes the study of OIF I in Chapter 11 by examining the planning, preparation, execution, and results of the installation and operation of the Inland Petroleum Distribution Systems (IPDS) as the principle bulk fuel delivery mechanism supporting the American forces. The final chapter — by Major General Paul C. Hurley, Commanding General Combined Arms Support Command; Major General Rodney D. Fogg, 54th Quartermaster General; and Ronald Jaeckle, CASCOM strategic planner — explores the future of logistics decision-making.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
