Thinking about Logistics : Readings in the Issues and Concerns Facing Air Force Logistics in the 21St Century ; 2005: 2005

By Rainey, James C.

Summary
Description: Thinking About Logistics is a collection of papers written by students taking the Advanced Logistics Readiness Officer Course (ALROC) at the Air Mobility Warfare Center, Fort Dix, New Jersey. ALROC came from a Corona decision to create highly skilled operational logistics readiness officers who are competent in Agile Combat Support (ACS) command and control and experts on Agile Combat Support and Expeditionary Combat Support. The course provides warfighting commanders with officers who possess special expertise in the application of expeditionary logistics and the ability to leverage effects-based logistics to improve combat capability. The course focuses on the ACS processes of Ready the Force, Prepare the Battlespace, Position the Force, Employ the Force, Sustain the Force, and Recover the Force. Students are selected from fully qualified logistics readiness officer captains with 6 to 8 years of service. Those completing this course are targeted for key positions in logistics readiness squadrons, wing combat support centers, A-4/A-5, air operations centers, regional supply squadrons, and other combat support command and control nodes. After completing this course, these officers will be highly skilled logisticians capable of not only providing combat support to air expeditionary forces and warfighting commanders but also instructing unit-level logistics officers and advising senior commanders.
