A friend of Professor Charles Taff sent him an old newspaper, The Steering Wheel, The Journal of the Motor Transport Corps (MTC), American Expeditionary Forces (AEF), dated March 29, 1919. Charlie knew of my inter e st in the history of military transportation as well as current issues, so he passed it on to me. One of the headlines reads, "When Will The MTC Boys Go Home?"
A letter from Brigadier General Walker to the Officers and men of the MTC suggests an answer as follows:
"There are at present several thousand motor vehicles awaiting repair at the various Service, Overhaul and Reconstruction Parks in the AEF, or awaiting transportation to such Parks, and it is estimated that four months' work will be required to put these vehicles in serviceable condition. In addition, there will be the damages which occur from now on, all of which will have to be repaired before we can go home.
"A large proportion of the last mentioned repairs can be avoided since they are the direct result of careless driving and careless maintenance. It is urged that every member of the Motor Transport Corps be on the lookout for, and call attention to, reckless driving, which frequently results in wrecked vehicles; poor adjustment of brakes, which results in damaged tires; the absence of hub caps, which results in destruction of bearings; loose bolts, which results in a loss or breaking of various parts of the body or chassis; and other evidences of careless maintenance or careless operation of our vehicles."
I am sure some of our readers have heard similar urgings in more recent years than 1919. Another article discusses the enormous supply effort and how some in the AEF have the idea that it is a simple thing to handle, the proposition being merely to find out what supplies are needed, get them and distribute them. On February 1, 1919, the MTC has on hand 146,000 solid tires for trucks that had been coaxed across the bounding main and had not been distributed. These were among the 87,000 separate and distinct things the MTC was required to handle.
A few historical dates are of interest:
• June 26, 1917-The first truck units arrived at Saint Nazaire
• November 17, 1917-Officers and men arrive in Bordeau to establish a motor vehicle reception park
• December 8, 1917- Motor Transport Service created
• January 10, 1918-First Chief Motor Transport Officer appointed
Editorial
• July 11, 1918-Name changed to Motor Transport Corps
• September 22, 1918-Officers of the MTC were allowed to wear MTC insignia. 750 officers of the Quartermaster Corps, Signal Corps, Coast Artillery Corps, Infantry and Air Service transferred to MTC
One wonders why it took approximately 44 years before the Army Transportation Corps was established and another 45 y e ars before the establishm e nt of the United States Transportation Command.
What and how long will it take before the next major re-engineering occurs? Does anyone have a suggestion? DTJ

Happy New Year to NDTA members and friends . 1995 was a good year for your Association, and 1996 will be a defining year. As we define 1996, what do we expect to see on the national agenda?
Our national committees will take on a number of significant issues important to defense transportation preparedness in the maritime, air, surface, passenger travel and technology areas. A number of the issues are carryovers from last year's work. I will update you periodically during the year on progress of specific issues.
NDTA's Vice Chairman of the Board, Duane Cassidy, is heading a committee to develop resolutions for our Association. If you would like to submit topics to the committee for consideration, please forward them to our national headquarters by 1 June 1996. The resolutions will be presented at our General Membership Assembly on 30 September 1996 during our 51st Forum and Exposition in Orlando, Florida.
For the past several years, we have offered some excellent prizes for membership recruiting. While we have held our own, I know there is greater potential out there, and if each of us commits to recruiting one new member during 1996, we can make significant gains. Please let me know if you feel we should take a different approach and if there are additional tools we .can provide to assist you in recruiting/retention.
It is not too early to start organizing to recognize the outstanding workers in your chapters. In addition, merit scholarship applications must be submitted by midApril. Remember high school students, who are dependents of NDTA members, are also eligible to apply. Consult the NDTA Awards Program Handbook for criteria and an application. If you do not have access to a handbook, contact us here at National Headquarters.
National Transportation Week and Defense Transportation Day will be celebrated during the week of May 13-17 , 1996. Start to make your plans now. Send photographs of your events and they will appear in the AugustDTJ.
Last November, I had the opportunity to install the officers of the Okinawa Chapter. CW2 Robin Brown, USMC, has done a superb job in coordinating the reactivation of a Chapter that had been dormant for almost 20 years. My thanks to the 1315th Medium Port Command, SatoTravel and others for assisting her in this effort. Keep up the good work.
Following my visit to Okinawa with the United Seamen's Service, I visited our "A-Frame" Chapter in Seoul, Korea. I attended a reception to introduce the new chapter officers for 1996 and had an opportunity to meet many of our members in attendance. COL Thomas Kane, the USTRANSCOM Liaison Officer, is the New Chapter President, replacing COL Chuen Byung Kim.
The Jacksonville Chapter was re-activated in December of 1995. Jeff Crowe, NDTA's Chairman of the Board, delivered the keynote address. My thanks and congratulations to Major General Jack Piatak, USA (Ret.), of CSX, for spearheading this effort, along with CPT Henry Pittman, USA, Jay Falladori and Judy Conahan of Landstar/Ranger.
Our 51st Forum and Exposition will be held in Orlando, Florida, at the Buena Vista Palace Hotel from 28 September-2 October 1996. Mark your calendars. This is going to be an excellent venue for our World Class Forum and Exposition. The April DTJ will contain information on hotel reservations . The hotel will not accept reservations before that time.
I wish to thank all who supported us in 1995, and I ask for your continued commitment in 1996. Let's communicate during 1996. My best wishes for a banner year in all that you do. DTJ

The Honorable William Perry Secretary of Defense
On behalf of the Secretary of Defense, the Assistant Deputy Under Secretary of Defense for Transportation Policy (ADUSD(TP)) is responsible for oversight of all transportation matters within the Department of Defense (DoD). The ADUSD(TP) develops policies to maintain a sufficient wartime transportation capability while maintaining a safe, secure, responsive, and efficient peacetime distribution system. Our policy responsibility encompasses all aspects of the Defense Transportation System, including passenger travel, personal property and cargo shipments, and worldwide unit deployments of military personnel which rely on effective use of organic and commercially contracted transportation services. It also includes policy responsibility for the Military Postal System and the Military Customs Program. Policy and programs are coordinated with, and executed by, the Military Departments, the Joint Staff, the Unified Commands, and the Defense Agencies. The majority of transportation policies and programs are executed by the U.S. Transportation Command (USTRANSCOM) and its Components, Air Mobility Command (AMC), Military Sealift Command (MSC), and Military Traffic Management Command (MTMC) .
Airlift. The Civil Reserve Air Fleet (CRAP) consists of passenger and cargo aircraft that commercial carriers have agreed to make available for DoD's use in times of crisis. In return for their participation in CRAP, carriers are given preference for DoD's peacetlme passenger and cargo business and are guaranteed that the burden of carrying out a deployment will be spread fairly among all participants.
Calling up C RAF Stage I aircraft provides DoD access t o about 9 percent of the passenger capacity and 18 percent of the cargo capacity in the long-range U.S. commercial fleet. With the addition of Stage II aircraft, those figures rise to 25 percent and 46 percent, respectively For Stage III, the aircraft employed constitute as much as 47 percent of the passenger capacity and 61 percent of the cargo capacity in the long-range U.S. com-
Area Code: (703) 697-1903
mercial fleet. All three stages are activated by the Commander in Chief of the U.S Transportation Command, with the approval of the Secretary of Defense.
The NDTA Military Airlift Committee has provided an excellent forum that facilitates dialogue between the air carrier industry and DoD. Following the firstever CRAF activation, during Operations Desert Shield/Storm , some air carriers expressed concerns over the risks and rewards associated with CRAF membership. In response, DoD initiated a number of CRAF business and operational revitalization efforts . Major initiatives include : ( 1) renewed emphasis on the use of CRAF carriers, and the requirement that DoD airlift contracts be awarded to CRAF participants; (2) authorization of the Defense Business Operations Fund Transportation (DBOF-T) as a source to pay an aviation war risk insurance claim in a timely manner; (3) effectiv e with the Fiscal Year 1995 General Services Administration (GSA) solicitation for commercial passenger airlift, CRAF participation is required in order to place priority on the award of about $1 billion of government travel revenue to CRAF carriers; and, (4) approval of legislation allowing civil use of military airfields by CRAF carriers. Continuous dialogue and annual contracts with CRAF participants provide a responsive and flexible tool for ensuring the CRAF Program is adjusted to changing conditions while assuring access to the formidable airlift capability essential to preserving our national interests. Sealift. Sealift capacity comes from three sources: ships operating in commercial trade, commercial ships under long-term charter to the Department, and government-owned ships maintained in reserve status. These vessels provide three primary types of capacity:1) container capacity, which is useful primarily for moving supplies; 2) roll-on-roll-off (RO/RO) capacity (measured in square footage), which is needed to move the wheeled/tracked equipment of combat units; and, 3) tanker capacity, for fuels. In addition, the older breakbulk ships, principally in the reserve inventory, can move both military equipment and supplies.
The U.S.-flag commercial fleet contains 210 ships with military utility . These include 107 dry cargo ships, 101 tankers, and 2 passenger ships. Another 123 vessels that could contribute to military missions-49 dry cargo ships, 67 tankers, and 7 passenger ships-are maintained in the Effective U.S. Control (EUSC) fleet EUSC ships are owned by U.S. companies or their foreign subsidiaries and registered in nations whose laws do not preclude the ship's requisitioning. Although DoD would prefer to use U.S. -flag vessels with U .S. crews, much of the available tanker capacity is in the EUSC fleet.

DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE
Currently, DoD is chartering 9 dry cargo ships and 10 tankers from commercial operators to transport military cargoes to locations not accessible by regular commercial service. The number of ships under charter for these purposes varies little from year to year. Additionally, MSC has 34 ships in the afloat prepositioning force. This force includes 10 Ready Reserve Force (RRF) ships, 23 charter ships and 1 Navy owned ship.
For more than a decade now, the proportion of container ships in the commercial fleet has been increasing. Although these ships are well suited to the movement of most military supplies and munitions, they cannot carry most types of unit equipment without the installation of adaptive devices. Even with those devices, the time required to deploy unit equipment in container ships may take too long and still not permit the ships to offload at primitive or damaged port facilities. Therefore, to meet the very demanding deployment timetables and potential lack of port infrastructure or regional contingencies, it is necessary to acquire RO/RO and similar ships in the government-owned inventory and maintain them in a high state of readiness.
Today, the government maintains 82 dry cargo ships, 8 tankers, and 4 passenger ships in reserve status for use in military operations:
• Eight are fast sealift ships (high-speed RO/ROs) bought during the early 1980s and maintained with partial crews so that they can be available for loading in two to four days. These ships are funded and operated by DoD.
• Two are aviation support ships-floating maintenance depots-and another two are hospital ships, all capable of full operation in five days. These ships also are funded and operated by DoD.
• The remaining 72 dry cargo ships, 8 tankers, and 2 passenger ships are in the Ready Reserve Force (RRF), which is managed by the Maritime Administration (MARAD) within the Department of Transportation (DOT).
Transportation. Transportation , a primary function of the DoD logistics system, constitutes a significant portion of the system's total cost . In FY 95 , DoD's worldwide transportation program cost over $10 billion. This program supports the moving of material, personnel, personal property, and the maintaining of transportation infrastructure services. Ongoing initiatives achieve savings by reducing transportation costs, improving transit times, and reengineering transportation processes.
The National Security Strategy, to sustain two nearly simultaneous major regional conflicts, with less investment in war reserve inventory , requires DoD to cut inventories and distribute materials into commonuser stockpiles to support multiple theaters. Rapidly transporting stocks between theaters and maintaining visibility of material in storage and transit is essential to the success of this new logistics doctrine.
A major transportation initiative of Total Asset Visibility (TAV), mentioned earlier, is Intransit Visibility (ITV), the capability to track defense cargo as it moves in unit deployments, sustainment, and redeployments as well as track passengers, medical patients, and personal
property from origin to final destination. The Global Transportation Network (GTN) system is being developed to support an integrated ITV capability, that translates into reduced procurements and inventories and a shorter pipeline. This results in significant cost savings, but places greater demands on the transportation system for expedited delivery. Building a unified, common user, TAV capability that reaches from unit, depot, and vendor to the foxhole is one of the Department's highest logistics priorities
The DoD relies on the commercial transportation industry to meet over 85 percent of its peacetime and wartime transportation requirements. DoD partnerships with industry promote a better understanding of military requirements and commercial capabilities and allow maximum use of industry's e xtensive capabilities to meet peacetime and mobilization requirements. Other programs promising improved readiness and cost reduction are the Transportation Reengineering Task Force, the Joint Transportation Corporate Information Management Center 0TCC), and the Defense Transportation Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) initiatives. The Transportation Reengineering Task Force is reengineering DoD's transportation acquisition and financial management processes. The JTCC standardizes transportation migration systems to avoid system duplication and achieve process improvements and date standardization. The Defense Transportation EDI initiative reduces manpower, time, and paper flow currently required for acquiring and paying for transportation services.
Another DoD initiative designed to improve the quality of life for our Service members and their families is a major effort to raise the level of service provided during shipments involving Service members' household goods. This effort includes reducing loss and damage, simplifying household goods processes, and streamlining claims procedures.
Transportation Management Professional Enhancement Program. The DoD Transportation Management Professional Enhancement Program is sponsored by the Assistant Deputy Under Secretary of Defense of Transportation Policy. Each year the Military Services and Defense Agencies assign transportation professionals with top management potential to this program for rotational assignments with transportation organizations throughout DoD. This 12-month career development program provides a unique and enriching experience for the participants For more details on this career-enhancing program contact the OADUSD at (703) 697-7286.

ters related to contracted logistics support. Additionally, they develop facilities guidance for the preparation of civil engineer support plans and support CINC's facility requests tied to operational missions. The division advises on joint civil engineering support to contingencies and exercises and service-based development activities to support the combatant commands.
Moving the Force.
The Mobility Division, led by Col James E Etzel, USAF (703-697-2662) analyzes, and evaluates the adequacy and feasibility of joint aspects of mobility plans and operations. The division develops the transportation planning guidance in the Joint Strategic Capabilities Plan and maintains liaison with U.S. Transportation Command and its components. Additionally, the division serves as the Joint Staff agency responsible for transportation policy issues and provides recommendations to the Vice Chairman r egarding exceptions to policy for the use of DOD airlift. The division conducts in-depth analyses of inter and intra theater mobility requirements to guide defense mobility programs now and into the future. The Division, also, oversees several other programs vital to the health of the nation's strategic mobility forces: C-17, Ready Reserve Force, Voluntary Intermodal Sealift Agreement (VISA), Civil Reserve Air Fleet, and Large Medium Speed Roll-on/Roll-off (LMSR). One of the newer programs for the Mobility Division is intransit visibility. Mobility forces of the future must be able to deliver not only the people and cargo to their supported CINCs, but also the associated intransit visibility information. To assist in that task, the mobility division oversees and acts as the Joint Staff functional coordinator for the development of the Global Transportation Network (GTN).
Readiness and Requirements.
Col Daniel Mongeon, USA (703-695-2934) is the Deputy Director for Readiness and Requirements. The Division establishes, manages, and integrates the efforts within J-4 to conduct appropriate logistics readiness and capability assessments. They also support analysis, studies, and reviews, to provide recommendations for improvements and technological enhancements across the joint logistics spectrum for the present and well into the next century. The division also coordinates the Joint Requirements Oversight Council GROC) issues for the J4 as well as any staff work involving the Defense Science Board, Defense Acquisition Board (DAB), Mission Need Statements (MSN), and Operational Requirements Documents (ORD). To better prepare for future contingencies, the Readiness Division is intimately involved in the Joint Warfighting Capability Assessment OWCA) and the Joint Monthly Readiness Review GMRR) process. The JWCA is a focused examination of future joint warfighting capability requirements in specific functional areas . The J-4 is responsible for issues involving strategic mobility and its protection, and sustainment. In contrast, the JMRR looks at the current readiness of the U.S. military forces to fight and meet the demands of the National Military Strategy.
Planning and Exercises Support.
Col Pierce King, USMC (703-695-0967) heads the Logistics Plans and Exercises Division which is responsible for all aspects of logistics within the Joint Strategic
Planning System. It ensures combatant command operations and contingency plans adhere to established joint logistics doctrine and policies, especially for joint logistics interoperability matters. The division manages the preparation of joint logistics planning guidance and the development of joint logistics doctrine, and coordinates the logistics input into the development of the military's new command and control system, the Global Command and Control System (GCCS). The division also integrates all logistics planning for joint wargames and exercises, coordinates actions for Improving Force Closure (IFC), and is the resource/budget manager for theJ-4.
Sustaining and Mobilizing the Force.
Col Carl Fellers, USA (703-697-1535) leads the Sustainability and Mobilization Division. This division reviews and evaluates the logistics support available to execute military strategy and contingency plans associated with the missions of the combatant commands. The Division is responsible for developing planning guidance in the form of the logistics supplement to the Joint Strategic Capabilities Plan GSCP). The division is also the focal point for the Planning, Programming, and Budgeting process as well as the monitor of GAO audits and Congressional actions. Sustainability issues covering joint integration of munitions, fuels , prepositioning assets, and materiel sourcing for operations plans are handled within this division. As the mobilization experts, they provide overall guidance for interservice coordination for both military and industrial mobilization As DoD's principal action agency on mobilization and reserve call-up, the Division coordinates the input of commanders in chief and military departments regarding reserve component call-up requirements and prepares recommendations to the National Command Authority.
Health Care to the Troops.
The Medical Readiness Division, headed by Col Myung Kim, USA (703-697-4421), is the military's strategic joint health service support OHSS) planners . The Division focuses its efforts on integrating health service support to the forces throughout the spectrum of military operations, both for peace and in war. They work in close coordination within the J-4 and with other Joint Staff directorates to ensure total integration of efforts. The Division also work closely with the Unified commands, particularly U.S . Transportation Command, in identifying and developing joint solutions for the combatant command's aeromedical evacuation issues . Looking to the Future.
Understanding the challenges of tomorrow will require a thorough understanding of joint logistical requirements and the interrelationships among Services, CINCs, and supporting agencies. To cope with the uncertainties of the future, logistics must institute a joint concept of operating. From planning to execution, logistics must leverage its own organic capabilities with that of civilian industry. Early planning is important. Moreover, early decisions are critical. The Logistics Directorate is charged with the mission to work to ensure our logistics support to any contingency is agile, accurate, and responsive.

Principal Deputy Director (703) 767-5222
It is not surprising that the Defense Logistics Agency's (DLA) motto is" Around th e Clock, Around the World. " By responding to its c ustomer's needs and adopting improved practices, DLA has evolved as the provider of choice for the military services. With mor e than 3.5 million DLA managed items and customers in most countries of the world, it is imp e rative that DLA meets a variety of logistics requirements.
DLA's mission is to provide support to our armed forces, in peace or in war, and assist in relief efforts during national emergencies. More specifically, DLA provides supply and distribution support, contract administration services, and technical and logistics services to all branches of the military.
DLA has six supply centers that manage items in eight commodity areas: clothing, construction material, electronic supplies, fuel, general supplies, industrial supplies, subsistence and medical supplies. The military services determine their requirements for supplies and materials and establish their priorities . DLA supply centers consolidate the services' requirements and procure the supplies in sufficient quantities to meet the services' projected needs.
Besides managing its own contracts, DLA also manages contracts awarded by the military services, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, other federal agencies, and foreign governments. DLA's Defense Contract Management Command (DCMC) is responsible for assuring that procured materiel is of satisfactory quality and delivers that material when and where the customer needs it. DCMC manages more than 371,000 prime contracts worth in excess of $940 billion.
The distribution function of DLA has und er gone significant changes in the past few years Consolidation of the distribution functions of the military service depots was completed in March 1992, creating a single, unified supply distribution system managed by DLA. In
the present structure, two distribution region staffs, East and West, oversee their assigned distribution depots. Currently, distribution performs 34.8 million transactions a year and stores approximately 6.1 million items valued at $105.7 billion.
DLA also manages four Department of Defense logistic support programs. These are the Federal Supply Catalog System, the Defense Logistics Services Center, the Defense National Stockpile, and the Defense Reutilization and Marketing Service.
Recently relocated to Fort Belvoir, Virginia, the employees of Headquarters DLA are actively investigating and implementing the best in commercial and government practices. With an emphasis on quality and ownership, DLA has taken on a "corporate perspective." Today, DLA transactions are recorded
in a manner similar to commercial businesses. This, along with Activity-Based Costing, allows DLA to effectively measure its own performance.

DLA is also paying special attention to the level of customer satisfaction for the organization. A new emphasis has been placed on providing better, cheaper, and faster service in response to customer needs. Through organizational reengineering, teams, infrastructure reduction, and partnerships, DLA also is remaining customer-focused by removing the obstructions to direct customer contact.
Today, DLA supports initiatives that have impact in three major areas: overall DoD cost reduction, increased productivity, and inventory reduction through expedited delivery and/or increased visibility.
Enhanced Vendor Delivery (EVD)-a program based on commercial practices to improve total asset visibility and control of materiel procured from vendors. EVD will use a Third Party Logistics Manager to provide a state~of-the-art information management system and to improve the traffic management efficiency and effectiveness for materiel currently procured under Free OnBoard (FOB) destination terms.
Prime Vendor-uses a single distributor of commercial supplies for a group of customers in a given geographic region. Because the vendor is required to provide 24-hour deliver y and must have a minimum supply availability of 95 percent, the customer can maintain smaller inventories, thus reducing warehousing expenses. Similarly, materiel costs are lower to the customer because the vendor is able to obtain some economies of scale, which are then passed to the customer. The customer also does not have to depend on expensive local markets to satisfy demand.
DLA Guaranteed Traffic (GT)-a competitive bidbased program where only those responsive, cost-effective commercial carriers are awarded specific traffic movements. Award of a GT bid is for a specific time period, from a DLA depot or DoD contractor facility , to a region (grouping of states), point to point or round trip. Rates are stable and fewer carriers service the depot resulting in administrative time savings at the depot. The depot maintains quality standards-carrier performance resulting in better service to the depot and its customers
Dedicated Truck-provides substantial savings to the depot. The origin depot provides tailored and scheduled service to a consignee. Traditionally, this service has been provided to high volume customers whose level of business has made this specialized service cost effective to the depot. A scheduled service, the customer benefits from reduced transit times and increased visibility. Customers can effectively plan their receiving function , thus reducing administrative waiting time.
Medical Air Express (MEDEX) and Commercial Air Lines of Communication (COMALOC)-give customers door-to-door service via competitively priced commercial delivery systems. In the past, medical supplies and Army Air Lines of Communication repair parts moved on 463L pallets from depot consolidation and containeri z ation points to military aerial ports of embarkation for overseas shipment via military aircraft. This Air Mobility Command contract requires door-todoor d elivery within four busin ess days. Transportation cost avoidance is estimated to be $3.3 million for COMALOC and MEDEX combined in Fiscal Year 1995.
Premium Service-dramatically reduces order ship time, thus allowing reduction of retail stocks. Located at the Defense Distribution Depot Memphis in Tennessee,
Premium Service is a Government-owned, contrac,toroperated facility operated by Federal Logistics Services. Customers store critical , mission-essential items in.the Premium Service facility and are able to provide door-todoor service within 24 hours to CONUS destinations and within 48 hours to most OCONUS locales.
United States Air Force, United States Transportation Command Express Carrier Consortium-established a reinvention laboratory that has worked state-of-the-art business practices for over a year. The laboratory empowers the consortium, legitimizes the industry relationship, and accelerates the adoption of leading-edge business practices within the Department of Defense The reinvention laboratory's main objectives are to foster development of innovative business practices, reduce order ship times, assure delivery process responsiveness, increase direct delivery, enhance in-transit visibility and shipment control, and reduce inventory. Strategy includes development, testing and implementation of initiatives in a rapid, prototype fashion to improve logistics system responsiveness. The focus will be on those initiatives that will enhance Doorto-Door Distribution and Lean Logistics concept, that is, those items/forces requiring express delivery services.
In the past, DLA acted as a traditional wholesaler which bought, stored, and sold invent0ry and measured success by the percentage of requisitions filled. Today, DLA has evolved from the wholesaler to the responsive broker, which secures the most efficient and effective support and uses performance-based management to gauge success. Better, faster, and cheaper service is a reality for the DLA customers. Now, DLA is poised to remain their customers' provider of choice-" Around the Clock, Around the World," and into the future.

Tie United States Transportation Command USTRANSCOM) is the single manager of defense ommon-user transportation. Along with its transportation component commands, USTRANSCOM is responsible for maintaining a defense transportation system (DTS) ready and capable of meeting the nation's needs.
The creation of USTRANSCOM in 1987 was a major step toward restructuring transportation roles to better support DoD requirements. In 1992-after learning lessons from Desert Shield and Desert Storm-the Secretary of Defense assigned USTRANSCOM combatant command over common-user transportation resources and designated USTRANSCOM as the single manager for defense transportation in peace and war.
USTRANSCOM's vision is to provide timely, customer-focused global mobility in peace and war through efficient, effective and integrated transportation from origin to destination.
This year the major initiatives and programs designed to achieve the vision have been : Procurement of the C17; Civil Reserve Air Fleet; strategic sealift programs including acquisition of more large, medium-speed rollon/roll-off (LMSR) ships and the Voluntary Intermodal Sealift Agreement (VISA); infrastructure improvements; intransit visibility (ITV); and the global transportation network (GTN). Real advances in these initiatives and programs have been made in 1995.
The Air Force's Air Mobility Command (AMC) provides the strategic air mobility forces for USTRANSCOM. Airlift has the advantages of speed, range and flexibility over other modes of transport Traveling at jet speeds , and operating in conjunction with air refueling tankers, strategic airlifters can deliver cargo and personnel anywhere in the world in hours
Ensuring USTRANSCOM has air mobility assets to

meet future air mobility needs is a priority; with that comes an unavoidable need to replace the aging C-141 fleet. The C-17 Globemaster III, the replacement airlifter for the C-141, has come a long way from the beginning of the program in the early eighties Th e aircraft transitioned very well from the role of a test aircraft to that of an operational one. Since the delivery of the first C-17 in June 1993, the Globemaster III has set 22 world flight records and flown in support of three major US contingencies and humanitarian operations. It also passed a grueling reliability, maintainability and availability evaluation designed to assess the C-17's ability to meet wartime operations tempo. The C -17 performed as advertised . In early November 1995, the deputy secretary of defense announced that the C-17 Globemaster III will continue to be acquired as the DoD's core airlifter.
The Civil Reserve Air Fleet (CRAF) complements organic strategic air mobility forces as volunteers in peace and mobilized assets in times of national emergency. The CRAF is composed of commercial aircraft committed to supporting the transportation of military forces and materiel worldwide. Through a partnership with AMC and the commercial industry, USTRANSCOM continues to refine the CRAF program. In 1995 , USTRANSCOM worked with the General Services Administration to link the small packages program, which provides delivery of next day, second and third day small packages, and freight, to CRAF participation. This is part of a continuing effort to leverage the business base for CRAF.
The Navy' s Military Sealift Command (MSC) provides USTRANSCOM's strategic sealift forces consisting of a fleet of government-owned and chartered ships. These include fast sealift ships, and prepositioning ships after they are discharged and released to the common-user fleet. MSC also uses Ready Reserve Force (RRF) ships , a

fleet of inactive ships maintained by the U.S. Maritime Administration (MARAD), as well as U.S.-registered commercial vessels and foreign flag ships.
USTRANSCOM is reengineering and streamlining several strategic sealift programs Several initiatives are being developed, such as the Voluntary Intermodal Sealift Agreement (VISA). VISA is a CRAF-like program where some elements of the CRAF program, such as timephased commitment, were adapted to fit sealift. VISA was developed as a program that contractually provides phased access to commercial sealift capacity and intermodal capability to support DoD sustainment cargo requirements.
The No. 1 sealift priority is the acquisition of large, medium-speed roll-on/roll-off (MSR) ships. Today there are approximately 6.5 million square feet of capacity in USTRANSCOM's organic fleet-MSC's fast sealift ships and the MARAD's Ready Reserve Force-of which 5 million square feet is currently available in time to meet surge lift requirements. To meet the total of 10 million square feet of surge capacity recommended by the Mobility Requirements Study, USTRANSCOM supports DoD plans to acquire the recommended 11 surge LMSR ships and five additional RRF roll-on/roll-off ships, and restore the readiness of selected RRF ships currently in lower readiness categories. Additionally, USTRANSCOM supports the purchasing of eight LMSRs for prepositioning.
As another initiative, USTRANSCOM is developing alternative contracting procedures that will allow it to form a partnership with ocean carrier service providers and deliver enhanced customer service in both peace
and war. These improvements will streamline the contract award process, and provide stability to both the DoD and the commercial service providers relied upon to meet contingency requirements. In this program, carriers would receive guaranteed tonnage commitments from DoD for their capacity commitments to wartime requirements. The intent is to create a more stable, streamlined contracting process for sealift that links peacetime contract awards to readiness commitments provided through the VISA program.
To expeditiously transport troops and materiel to ports, the U.S. Army's Military Traffic Management Command (MTMC) procures transportation services to meet USTRANSCOM's overland lift requirements. The extensive lift capability needed by our nation includes railroads, railcars, highways, trucks , waterways and barges. Both in the U.S. and overseas, MTMC coordinates force movement to seaports, prepares the ports for ships and cargo and manages loading operations at ports.
Earlier in 1995, the Base Realignment and Closure Commission recommended-and Congress approvedthat Oakland Army Base, Calif., and the Military Ocean Terminal Bayonne, N.]., be closed. Once these ports are closed, the military will depend on its partnership with the commercial port operators even more.
Enhancement projects are currently underway at Port Hadlock, Wash., and Concord Naval Weapons Station, Calif. (funded by the Army Strategic Mobility Program) to increase West Coast throughput capability to 720 20foot ammunition containers per day. It is planned to be completed by fiscal year 1999.
The 1995 Mobility Enhancement Fund is a special $50 million authorization provided by Congress to enhance the readiness of strategic mobility infrastructure. USTRANSCOM proposed to use the money for several projects including military rail repair, port and pier improvements, runway and ramp maintenance and other infrastructure improvements. This fund has provided an opportunity to quick-fix some pressing infrastructure problems.
As our nation has moved into the information age, the importance of command and control systems for the DTS increased. Fielding a state-of-the-art, customerfocused command and control system will likely be the greatest force multiplier we have to offer the war-fighting commanders in chief. This program will enable enhanced in-transit visibility (ITV)-the capacity to track the location of deploying units' personnel and equipment, patients, sustainment cargo, and other vital resources while they are in the DTS.
Vital to ITV and other aspects of command and control (C2) is the Global Transportation Network (GTN). GTN is essentially an integrated data base containing all the data necessary to answer ITV and C2 transportation questions. Once fully developed, GTN will contain information for the command and control of all transportation assets operating in the DTS. GTN will significantly improve the capability of the commanders to respond to rapidly changing priorities.
All of these programs and initiatives have high priority within USTRANSCOM and continue to be worked as USTRANSCOM moves toward the goal of ensuring the DTS will meet its responsibilities within the framework of the National Security Strategy

Tie 122,000 men and women of the Air Mobility Command-including its gained Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve units-provide airlift and aerial refueling for all of America's armed forces. VS and international aeromedical evacuation missions are also assigned to America 's Global Reach Team.
As the air component of the United States Transportation Command, AMC, headquartered at Scott AFB, Ill., serves many customers. As the single manager for air mobility, AMC's customers have onl y one number to call for Global Reach. When directed, AMC provides its forces to the war-fighting commanders in support of missions worldwide.
Airlift aircraft provide the capability to deploy air and air-mobile forces anywhere in the world, and sustain them in a conflict. Tankers are the lifeline of Global Reach. Aerial refueling increases range, bomb load and combat air patrol times Since Air Force tankers can also refuel Navy, Marine and many allied aircraft, they enhance all service capabilities on land, sea and in the air.
A key to the consolidation of airlift and aerial refueling is the Tanker Airlift Control Center, which provides centralized command and control of AMC assets. The TACC is responsible for scheduling and tracking strategic tanker and airlift resources worldwide.
An important source of strategic airlift capability comes to AMC through the Civil Reserve Air Fleet program This program formalizes U.S. commercial air service and provides AMC with more than 90 percent of passenger and 30 percent of its cargo capability wh en activated
Air Force taskings-as well as Department of Defense support-are channeled through this state-of-the-art hub of mobility control. AMC assigns its active-duty resources to two numbered air forces, the 15th Air Force
at Travis AFB, Calif., and the 21st Air Force at McGuire AFB, N.J
AMC aircraft include the C-17 Globemaster III, C-5 Galaxy, C-9 Nightingale, C-141 Starlifter, KC-10 Extender and KC-135 Stratotanker, making up a fleet of 850 aircraft, with another 101 operational support, special air mission, and aeromedical aircraft. Of those, 616 are active-duty and 335 are operated by the Guard/Reserve
Within the active force, AMC comprises about 8,326 officers, 45,809 airmen, and 11,265 civilians. With an annual budget of more than $6 billion, the command carries a significant economic impact . Assets on AMCowned bases alone total nearly $42. 7 billion
AMC operates 12 bases In addition to Scott AFB, AMC bases include Andrews AFB, Md.; Charleston AFB, S.C.; Dover AFB, Del.; Grand Forks AFB, N D.; March AFB, Calif.; McChord AFB, Wash.; McConnell AFB, Kan ; McGuire AFB, N.J ; Fairchild AFB, Wash. ; and Travis AFB, Calif. In addition, AMC operates five major units at non-AMC installations. Thirty-nine Air Reserve Component bases play a major role in the command's mobility mission More than 56,000 Guard and Reserve forces support AMC worldwide taskings.

Charleston AFB, S.C., accepted its first C-17 Globemaster III in June of 1993, and has since received 17 more, forming two airlift squadrons. The C-17 is America's newest, most flexible airlifter, which will provide strategic airlift around the world into the 21st century. The C-17 flew its first two operational missions on Oct. 14 and 15, 1994 , by transporting troops and equipment from Langley AFB, VA, to the Arabian Peninsula nonstop in support of Operation Vigilant Warrior. The Globemaster Ills were refueled twice en route by AMC tankers.
In August 1995, the C-17 completed the most rigorous reliability, maintainability and availability evaluation ever created for a: military aircraft. Results clearly showed that the Globemaster III effectively performs every military-unique requirement .
In the past year, AMC C-5s and C-141s, along with Air Combat Command C-130s, moved approximately 7,300 Cubans from refugee camps in Panama to Guantanamo Bay Naval Air Station, Cuba, in Operation Safe Passage.
April 19, AMC airlift supported a federal emergency response request by flying three missions after an enormous explosion destroyed half of the Alfred Murray Federal Building in downtown Oklahoma City. AMC flew 62 Phoenix-area firefighters; a 63-person urban search and rescue team and five search dogs from Sacramento; and a Federal Bureau of Investigation team, vehicles, and equipment from Andrews AFB, Maryland. A total of 25 missions were eventually flown to transport 1,359 passengers and 3,864 tons of cargo.
Also in April, a C-141 left McGuire AFB, N J ., for Donetsk, Ukraine, with six pallets of equipment and
medical supplies. The flight was part of Operation Provide Hope, which has been supported with more than 300 AMC missions flown to the republics of the former Soviet Union since February 1992.
In May, AMC supported the World War II commemoration of the Hump Airlift in the China-Burma, India (CBI) theater. From 1942 to 1945, transport pilots delivered more than 700,000 tons of cargo to friendly forces across the Himalayas in China and Southeast Asia. On May 28, 1995, 19 CBI veterans joined military officials in reflying "The Hump" from Calcutta, India, to Kunming, China, the terminus of the World War II Hump flights. The activity was supported by two C-17 Globemaster III aircraft and two KC-10 Extenders.
Three C-14 ls landed at Scott AFB, Ill., in June, from Port-au-Prince carrying 350 Haitian police cadets on their way to training classes at the Army's Fort Leonard Wood, Mo. The cadets made up the first group of approximately 5,200 Haitian police cadets who would train at Fort Leonard Wood in 1995. This training will enable the Haitian government to have about 7,000 police in place by March 1996, when United Nations forces are scheduled to withdraw from the island.
In July, a C-5 transported personnel and equipment of the 621st Tanker Airlift Control Element from McGuire AFB, N.J., to Split, Croatia. In support of an operation nicknamed Quick Lift, the TALCE assisted in the deployment of a United Nations reaction force of British and Dutch troops to Croatia. By the end of the airlift activity, AMC flew 27 C-5 missions and 53 C141 missions, airlifting 4,742 passengers and 1,504 short tons of cargo.
As the busiest command in the Air Force, over a 48hour period, AMC airlifted 66 members of the 621st TALCE, McGuire AFB, N.J., 1,400 soldiers from the 1st Cavalry Division, Fort Hood, Texas, and more than 660 tons of cargo and equipment to Kuwait to support Exercise Intrinsic Action.
As forward forces decline, but global interests remain, lift will be even more in demand. Air mobility is an ideally suited military tool for an environment of uncertainty with widely disp~rsed potential flashpoints.

Tie Navy's Military Sealift Command, headed by Vice Adm. Philip M. Quast, U .S. Navy, provides cean transportation for DoD cargo in peacetime and in war. In addition, the command operates combat logistics force ships to support Navy combatant ships at sea and special mission ships which serve as scientific platforms for government research projects .
MSC accomplishes its diverse missions with more than 130 ships in three separate forces: the Strategic Sealift Force, the Naval Fleet Auxiliary Force and the Special Mission Support Force.
Today, more than 70 Strategic Sealift Force ships transport military equipment and supplies to support U.S. forces overseas Ninety-five percent of DoD's peacetime and wartime cargo moves by sea. The force includes chartered dry cargo ships and tankers , as well as eight government-owned Fast Sealift Ships, long- term chartered prepositioned ships and almost 90 governmentowned Ready Reserve Force ships. Some ships are kept in reduced operating status and ready to be called upon to provide the additional sealift in a war or contingency. Other commercial ships can be chartered when necessary.
The Naval Fleet Auxiliary Force includes more than 40 ships which provide fuel, ammunition, food, supplies, spare p a rts, towing services and ocean surveillance to U.S . Navy fleet commanders. NFAF ships include oilers , combat stores ships, ammunition ships, ocean-going tugs and ocean surveillance ships This force is growing as MSC takes on additional Combat Logistics Force ships from the fleet in the coming years
Fourteen Special Mission Support Force ships gather research around the world to support the Navy and various other U S. government agencies. The ships include missile range i nstrumentation shi ps which monitor missile launches , oceanographic research and survey ships which study the ocean environment and cable ships

Headquartered in Washington, D C., MSC employs more than 7,900 people worldwide and has four major area commands: MSC Atlantic in Bayonne, N.J.; MSC Pacific in Oakland, Calif.; MSC Europe in Naples, Italy; and MSC Far East in Yokohama , Japan.
MSC's commander reports directly to the Navy's Chief of Naval Operations as a second echelon commander for Navy-unique matters and to Commander in Chief, USTRANSCOM, as a component commander for DoD transportation matters. USTRANSCOM has a combatant command of MSC's common user sealift assets including the strategic sealift ships and the Ready Reserve Force ships when activated for a contingency. Day-to-day operational control of the strategic sealift ships remains with MSC.
MSC functions much like a type commander for the commanders in chief, US Atlantic and Pacific Fleets and US Naval Forces Europe In this capacity, MSC's auxiliary ships and special mission ships support the Navy's fleet operations worldwide.
Operational Highlights
Events in Bosnia grabbed world attention in 1995, and MSC's sealift efforts took a leading role by supporting the United Nations Rapid Reaction Force in the former Republic of Yugoslavia in the late summer. During Operation Quick Lift, the RRF roll-on/roll-off ships MV Cape Diamond and MV Cape Race were activated in July 1995 to transport the air mobile brigade equipment for 4,000 British troops. By the end of August, the two ships lifted more than 1,300 vehicles, 500 trailers, 232 containers, 3,600 breakbulk pieces and 223 pieces of other cargo from Britain to Croatia.
In the late summer of 1995, Saddam Hussein amassed troops on the Iraqi border-repeating the same threatening, offensive actions from one year earlier. Once again,
RADM Pierce J. Johnson, USNR
MSC's forward positioned prepositioned forces were called into action-this time for Operation Vigilant Sentinel. A total of 13 prepositioning ships from Diego Garcia and Guam, all laden with heavy equipment to support the Marine Corps, Army and Air Force, began to move toward the Persian Gulf. The ships included four Maritime Prepositioning Ships, eight Army War Reserve ships and one Air Force ammunition ship. This superb sealift support sent a clear and powerful signal to Saddam Hussein, demonstrating American resolve to thwart aggression. Prepositioning at sea was a war-stopper once again.
Another history-making sealift effort occurred in 1995 when MSC's chartered dry cargo vessel, MV Strong Texan, transported equipment to Russia in response to the Cooperative Threat Reduction Treaty between the United States and the former Soviet Union. The treaty, administered by the Defense Nuclear Agency, called for the United States to deliver dismantling equipment to destroy the former Soviet Union's arsenal of nuclear and chemical weapons. The ship arrived in Vladivostok, Russia, in mid-July where the metal cutting equipment was unloaded for further shipment to the Russian submarine base at Bolshoi Kamen.
In January 1995, two MSC-chartered ships delivered 50,000 tons of fuel oil from South Korea to North Korea in accordance with the Congressionally authorized Cooperative Threat Reduction Program. This State Department lift marked the first-ever US delivery of fuel oil to North Korea. Under the terms of the agreement, the United States and coalition nations would provide fuel to North Korea for the oil-burning generating plants which would be used after existing nuclear reactors were dismantled and while new nuclear reactors are being built.
In 1995, sealift made its mark not only in response to aggression and policy matters, but also in conjunction with Hurrican Marilyn's attack on the Virgin Islands. The Chartered Ship MV Maersk Constellation delivered Federal Emergency Management vehicles, portable kitchens, water and medical supplies to St. Thomas-providing the essential supplies to rebuild the devastated island.
Future of Sealift
Sealift is growing as MSC prepares to acquire up to 19 new and converted Large, Medium Speed Roll-on/roll-off ships by 2001. The lessons learned from the Persian Gulf War of the early 1990s and the Mobility Requirements Study and Bottom Up Review that followed all pointed to the need for an additional five million square feet of surge and
prepositioned sealift. The MRS recommended 36 rollon/roll-off ships for the RRF by the year 2001-requiring the purchase of 19 additional ships. As 1995 draws to a close, all but five of the 19 ships have been

Tie Military Traffic Management Command delivrs the power to the force anytime anywhere. We also deliver to the force whatever is needed to sustain it.
To help us achieve our mission, we focus on four core competencies, or main functions: global traffic management, integrated transportation systems, deployability engineering and worldwide port operations.
We are headquartered in Falls Church, Va., and serve as the overland lift component and primary traffic manager for USTRANSCOM.
With the support of three subordinate commands, MTMC tackles its operational goals. MTMC Eastern Area, located in Bayonne, N.J., covers 28 states in the Eastern United States. Europe, Southwest Asia, Africa, the Mediterranean, and South America are also part of Eastern Area.
MTMC Western Area, stationed in Oakland, Calif., covers the Western half of the United States, including Alaska, Hawaii, Southeast Asia and the Pacific
The third subordinate command, the Transportation Engineering Agency (TEA) in Newport News, Va., provides deployability engineering support to DoD worldwide. The agency also conducts transportation capability and traffic engineering studies for our national defense highways, railroads, ports, and intermodal systems. If you would like to discuss a TEA-related issue in more detail, please call (800) 722-0727.
Focusing on our worldwide port operations competency, MTMC has a presence in 25 water ports worldwide. We transport troops and materiel to ports of embarkation in the US and overseas and are the interface between DoD shippers and the commercial carrier industry.
To summarize our global traffic management responsibilities, we decide how military traffic moves and what controls we need to ensure we respond to our customers' needs. As such, we influence nearly four billion dollars

worth of commercial transportation services annually.
As you can imagine, our integrated transportation systems competency plays an important role in our mission. The systems allow customers to track their equipment and enable DoD to revise its business practices to better provide quality service to our customers.
For example, the CONUS Freight Management (CFM) System gives DoD transportation managers automation to buy commercial freight transportation services. CFM allows shippers to move freight and to electronically notify finance centers so carriers can be paid.
The Transportation Coordinator Automated Command and Control Information System (TC ACCIS) automates Army unit deployments and peacetime transportation functions. In fourth quarter FY96, we will upgrade the hardware and software to improve the deployment system until our users receive TC AIMS II.
The Integrated Booking System (IBS) will be ready in November 1996. It will be a single worldwide system to integrate existing cargo booking methods. IBS will

support new business practices allowing shippers to book directly with commercial ocean carriers.
The Worldwide Port System (WPS), planned for 70 sites worldwide, is currently in use at 33 sites in CONUS, Europe, and the western Pacific.
The Transportation Operational Personal Property Standard System (TOPS) is a project that automates all DoD personal property movements, storage and management functions. We completed CONUS fielding of 282 personal property offices in late 1994. In late 1995 we began deploying the system to 119 overseas personal property offices. We will complete TOPS deployment in 1996.
MTMC's Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) program greatly reduces paperwork and processing time for preparing government bills of lading (GBLs) as well as assists in the audit processing and payment of GBLs. Our goal is to have all commercial freight carriers submit rates through EDI before 1997.
During Third Quarter FY95, we completed the development of the first example of the Integrated Computerized Deployment System (!CODES) and successfully field-tested it at two Sea Deployment Readiness Exercises in Beaumont,Texas, and Savannah, Georgia

Assistant Director of Tronsportalion (703) 614-3953
The Directorate for Transportation, Energy and Troop Support manages the United States Army's transportation program which includes movement of people, materiel, transportation services and strategic mobility. The Directorate is responsible for developing functional concepts and implementation of transportation automated systems. It also manages the Department of Defense Military Customs Inspection Program.
Three transportation divisions carry out the mission of managing and planning the Army's transportation system. Responsibilities are as follows:
Transportation Policy Division
The Transportation Policy Division develops and implements policy, procedures and guidance for transportation and services for Army-sponsored cargo, passenger and personal property movements, and nontactical vehicles. The division has responsibility for Army transportation programs that spend approximately $2.8 billion annually. The division also exercises DoD Executive Agent responsibility for the DoD Military Customs Inspection Program. The division consists of two teams.
The Passenger/Cargo Team develops policy and procedures related to the entitlement for passenger travel, passenger travel services and travel management. It develops materiel movement policies, procedures and funding requirements, and supervises execution of special hazardous cargo shipments. The team interprets legislated transportation entitlements and Joint Federal Travel Regulation changes pertaining to personnel movements and the use of DoD passenger airlift resources. It establishes transportation, traffic management and port-handling policies, Army overocean transportation funding, as well as procedures in support of the Army and Air Force Exchange Service's cargo movement requirements paid by Army appropriated funds.
Director of Transportation, Energy and Troop Support, U.S. Army (703) 695-0950
The Personal Property/Nontactical Vehicle Team develops policy and procedures related to the entitlement for transportation and storage of personal property. It interprets legislated transportation travel entitlements for soldiers and military families to support Army objectives and manages the Army's Do-It-Yourself (DITY) move program. The team establishes general management and utilization policy for the Army's nontactical vehicle fleet, develops acquisition priorities and oversees the worldwide distribution of nontactical vehicles. In addition, the team manages the DoD privately Owned Vehicle Import Control Program, the Army's conversion to the General Services Administration Interagency Fleet Management System and the Military Customs Inspections Program.
Transportation Distribution Division
The Transportation Distribution Division represents the Army in developing the requirements and the knowledge-based architecture and systems needed to support ODCSLOG's logistics mission: In-Transit Visibility (ITV) is a capability to identify and track the movement of DoD-sponsored cargo, passengers, medical supplies and personal property from the point of origin to the destination receiving activity during peace and war; ITV is a subset of Total Asset Visibility (TAV), which contains the architecture that establishes the ability for obtaining ITV. TA V is an evolutionary merger between Automated Systems, as a source data vehicle, Automatic Identificaiton Technology (AIT) such as Radio Frequency (RF) tags, and assured communications. TAV will modernize Army capabilities for acquiring, handling and processing asset, force structure, authorization, weapon system and procurement information by providing visibility of assets in storage, in process, and in-transit. The Transportation Distribution Division coordinates and evaluates Army efforts to develop, procure, improve, and

Strategic Mobility Division
The Strategic Mobility Division serves as the Army's focal point on strategic mobility, transportation doctrine and mobilization transportation issues. The division supervises the mobility aspects of mobilization and contingency planning. It manages the Army Strategic Mobility Program (ASMP), which is the Army's plan to implement the recommendations of the Mobility Requirements Study (MRS). It coordinates Directorate participation in mobilization and deployment exercises and contingency operations. The Strategic Mobility Division consists of two teams and a Mobilization Augmentation Cell.
The Mobility and Force Structure Team is responsible for intra-CONUS mobilization and deployment transportation systems and infrastructure, including rail assets and the Defense Freight Railway Interchange Fleet. The team coordinates Directorate participation in Force Structure and Total Army Analysis and is the Army point of contact for various ongoing deployment modeling efforts. It also coordinates the Directorate's input into the Army's Planning, Programming, Budgeting and Execution System (PPBES).
The Strategic Lift Team is the Army's focal point for strategic lift requirements, with responsibility to develop
and assess the army's strategic sealift and airlift requirements and capabilities. The team is the Army's single point of contact representing Army's interests in the $6 billion Navy Strategic Sealift Acquisition Program, which includes the acquisition of Large Medium-Speed RO/ROs (LMSRS) and PREPO ships for the Army Afloat Prepositioning Program. The team is also the point of contact representing Army interests in the Air Force C-17 Program. Additionally, the Strategic Lift Team is responsible for policy and funding for Army watercraft and LogisticsOver-the-Shore (LOTS) capabilities and assets.

Deputy Chief of Staff for logistics and Operations (703) 617-9700
The Army Materiel Command's (AMC) mission is to be the U.S. Army's main support for logistics and weapon systems. In this role, AMC is the driving force in service to the soldier through research, development, testing, acquisition, sustainment and arranging transportation of weapon systems and support supplies to locations around the globe. This overall mission is carried out by more than 70,000 military and civilian personnel working in about 350 locations in over 40 states and half a dozen foreign countries plus 80 transportation offices.
AMC Headquarters in Alexandria, Virginia, directs through its major subordinate commands/inventory control points and other offices the activities of its depots, laboratories, arsenals, ammunition plants, manufacturing facilities, maintenance shops, proving grounds, and procurement offices. This includes use of DoD-owned air and sealift and contracting with commercial carriers for all modes to transport materiel to and from these locations and units/customers request-
ing supplies and receiving new weapon systems. In addition, AMC has a Department of Army charter to be responsible for Army cargo-related transportation policy and procedures. These responsibilities include personal property and passenger travel policy and procedures for its command and installation transporters. The transportation policy and procedures are formalized in Codes of Federal Regulations (CFR), Federal and Defense Acquisition Regulations (F/DAR), DoD Directives and Memorandums, Joint DoD Component Regulations, Department of Army and AMC Regulations and formal agreements. An example is DoD's routine use of commercial carriers with exemptions to use of DoDowned equipment. This requires routine contact with the Army Staff, US Transportation Command and its Transportation Component Commands, Military Traffic Management, Air Mobility and Sealift Commands. AMC transporters forecast requirements, defend, justify, budget, allocate, enforce and verify resources to move weapon systems and supplies to and from soldiers worldwide.
Some current transportation-oriented Army programs
AMC supports are:
• Army Strategic Mobility Program (ASMP) involves enhancement of movement of units and sustainment overseas through improvements to ports, automated systems, facilities, rail equipment and containers and participation in overocean readiness exercises.
• Direct Support System/ Air Line of Communication (DSS/ ALOC) involves lift of repair parts to Army units overseas from Defense Logistics Agency via DoDowned lift or commercial carriers.
• Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) involves the use of

this technology by transporters to move transportation documents and data worldwide in the Defense Transportation System (DTS) and via commercial carriers.
• Velocity Management (VM) is a coordinated effort throughout the Army's logistics community to significantly reduce the cycle times associated with repairs and parts orders. AMC, while downsizing, maintains a proactive stance in its relationships with DoD, other federal government and commercial transportation communities. Its transporters train during peacetime to be able to respond expeditiously during emergencies. This includes applying sound transportation policy and decisions from the headquarters level to those needing weapon systems and supplies. This ensures soldiers are provided what they need, when and where needed, to accomplish their missions at locations such as Bosnia, Haiti, Somalia and Saudi Arabia.

The current mission of the United States Air Force, Directorate of Transportation consists of strategic planning, programming and budgeting, traffic management, policy guidance to major commands, and shaping the future of Air Force transportation. The challenge for Air Force transportation is to meet the demanding requirements of rapid mobilization brought about by dramatic changes in world politics and military organizations.
The transportation staff's aim is to have peacetime training closely parallel wartime operations with common procedures for requesting air, land and sea lift. To better respond to no-notice taskings, the directorate is incorporating the "Desert Express" concept used during Desert Shield and Desert Storm, now known as the Air Mobility Express (AMX) concept, by integrating it into our peacetime and wartime procedures through the efforts of our Express Delivery Reinvention Laboratory (EDRL). Air Force transportation is actively seeking new and emerging technologies and best-business practices which will translate strategic planning efforts into reality. Fast, reliable , door-to-door distribution is the foundation upon which industry builds just-intime inventory systems. In today's environment of declining budgets, the Lean-Logistics Concept will encompass these new ideas , and transportation's role in moving parts faster and more reliably is th e foundation of its success. The Directorate's responsibility for developing and implementing Air Force transportation policy is conducted by three divisions: Traffic Management Division (LGTT), Combat Readiness Division (LGTR), and the Vehicle Operations and Maintenance Division (LGTV).

everal elements of the FHWA are actively involved with the DoD on transportation and logistics issues. The Transportation Studies Division works with the US Army Corps of Engineers' (COE) Water Resources Support Center, as does the Bridge Division with its National Bridge Inspection Program. The Statewide Planning Division works with MTMC in identifying the Strategic Highway Network (STRAHNET) and connectors that serve major military installations; and in implementing 16-foot vertical clearances on the Interstate System. The FHW A participates in DoD's Unmanned
Ground Vehicles Program and other activities have helped bring many defense organizations into the IVHS community. The Office of Motor Carriers (OMC) has worked with the Army to bring DoD driver training up to the minimum commercial drivers license standards. OMC receives copies of contractor performed DoD passenger carrier safety and compliance reviews. And finally, the Structures Division has an agreement with the Navy to develop two new high performance steel grades for use in highway bridge construction.

ince the mid-1970's, the DoT, through the FRA, and the DoD, through MTMC, have coordinated their efforts in designating rail lines important to national defense. A Strategic Rail Corridor Network (STRACNET) system of high density mainlines important to national defense was designated jointly by MTMC/FRA.
MTMC/FRA have also cooperated in a triennial report which reports on the condition of defense-essential rail lines, and publishes the current line designations in connection with the STRACNET and connector system as well as a current list of those military installations which require rail service.

Deputy Director Office of lntermodolism, (202) 366-5781
Mandate
Today, our most competitive transportation companies are integrated intermodal organizations. Intermodalism is on the cutting edge of transportation and is the means by which we can create the seamless transportation system critical to moving our nation into the 21st century.
Congress established the Office of lntermodalism to provide a single, senior-level focal point within the Government for the coordination and advocacy of intermodal transportation policy to support development of this system. Created by the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991, the Office is part of the Office of the Secretary of Transportation. Under ISTEA's mandate, the Office of Intermodalism promotes the establishment of an efficient nationwide intermodal transportation system through outreach efforts involving private industry, Federal, State, and local governments.
Title V of ISTEA requires that the Office coordinate Federal intermodal transportation policy and initiate policies to promote efficient intermodal transportation.
In addition, the Secretary of Transportation has directed the Office of Intermodalism to publicize and promote intermodal initiatives and programs within the Federal, State and local governments and with industry, in addition to participating in the planning, budgeting and rulemaking activities of DoT and other Federal agencies to remove constraints to intermodalism and to encourage intermodal opportunities. The secretary also has directed the office to support the DoD in its efforts to meet its transportation requirements in an intermodal manner.
Defense Transportation Activities Since the Office has been in existence, meetings have been held with
Michael P. Huerta Associate Deputy Secretary and Director, Office of lntermodalism (202) 366-5781
many elements wi t hin DoD to explore the myriad of intermodal initiatives underway within DoD. The intent is to identify where similar Departmental activities exist and take advantage of the synergies which can be realized through increased coordination and communication.
As the largest single user of commercial transportation in the United States, DoD is a major player in the future domestic transportation environment. Significantly, both DoD and DoT realize that intermodalism is the key to success and are moving strongly in that direction.
For example, representing the
Associate Director for lnterngency Affairs Office of lntermodalism (202) 366-S78 l land modes of the Department of Transportation, the Office played an active role in the Joint DoD/DoT Task Force on the Global Positioning System (GPS) which recommended major changes to the current management ofGPS.
In addition, DoD represented by USTRANSCOM is a member of DoT's Intermodal Freight Council (IFC). Created by the Office of Intermodalism earlier this year, the lFC seeks to provide Federal transportation professionals and specialists with improved opportunities to discuss intermodal freight issues, including developments of crosscutting importance that affect interstate or international freight transportation.
Finally, the Office is working closely with ARPA to define an intermodal research agenda that meets the mutual objectives of DoT, DoD, and the private sector.

Deputy Maritime Administrator (202) 366-1719
Vice Admiral Albert J. Herberger is Administrator of the Maritime Administration (MARAD), an agency within the Department of Transportation (DoT).
MARAD has primary federal responsibility for ensuring the availability of efficient water transportation service to American shippers and consumers MARAD also seeks to ensure that the United States enjoys adequate shipbuilding and repair service, efficient ports, effective intermodal water and land transportation systems, and reserve shipping capacity in time of national emergency.
The agency administers federal laws and programs designed to support and maintain a US merchant marine capable of meeting the nation's shipping needs for both domestic and foreign commerce and national security. It carries out its mission in five ways:
Providing support to the US merchant marine to achieve competitiveness in international trade and serve as a sustainment fleet during war or national emergencies;
Assisting US shipyards in becoming more competitive in the world shipbuilding market;
Improving the effectiveness and efficiency of all marine segments of the US intermodal transportation system;
Advancing the capabilities of the maritime industry to provide total logistic support to the military services during war or national emergencies; and
Maintaining a National Defense Reserve Fleet including a surge component, the Ready Reserve Force (RRF) , to support emergency and national security sealift needs
RRF ships are crewed by civilian merchant mariners whose peacetime jobs are aboard the privately owned US-flag cargo ships serving the nation's domestic and international commerce. They have supported US actions in the Persian Gulf, Haiti, Somalia and Bosnia.
MARAD recently established the Voluntary Intermodal Sealift Agreement (VISA) to support the emergency deployment and sustainment of US military forces through cooperation among the maritime indus-
VADM A. J. Herberger, USN (Ret.) Maritime Administrator (202) 366-5823
try, the DoT and the DoD. VISA will promote and facilitate the use of intermodal transportation systems. It will help maximize the DoD's use of commercial transportation resources.
MARAD operates the US Merchant Marine Academy, Kings Point, New York, and provides assistance to state maritime academies in California, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, New York and Texas.
Merchant Fleet. The privately owned deep-draft fleet of the US merchant marine totaled 407 vessels with a carrying capacity of about 18 million deadweight tons on July 1, 1995. That total comprised 335 oceangoing ships and 72 Great Lakes vessels.

Deputy Director, Office of Emergency Tronsportolion (202) 366-5270
The Office of Emergency Transportation (OET), a component of the Research and Special Programs Administration (RSPA), serves as the Department's multi-modal crisis response management element. The office is responsible for the development and implementation of a broad range of Department-wide emergency plans and procedures to maintain a high state of federal civil transportation readiness. As DoT's Emergency Coordinator, the Director of OET provides policy direction to and coordinates the emergency preparedness programs of the organizational elements of the Department. The Director also develops, maintains, and executes the Department's planning activities for the response to multi-modal transportation emergencies, such as major military operations and natural and technological disasters. OET staff and the Emergency Transportation Coordinators (EC) from the modal administrations at headquarters, in concert with Regional Emergency Transportation Coordinators (RETCO) from ten regions, form the nucleus of the DoT crisis response team. In addition, OET provides planning assistance to and maintains close liaison with other elements of the Federal transportation community, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the military, State and local authorities, and the transportation indus-
try, serving as the lead agency for the transportation element of the Federal Response Plan . At the onset of a major disaster, OET organizes and activates the DoT teams for its newly completed Crisis Management Center (CMC) at headquarters, as well as acquiring and managing transportation support to Federal, State and local authorities in the affected region(s). From the CMC, OET manages the information flow on the status of a crisis and coordinates modal response activities with FEMA and the regions. Daily situation reports, including DoT actions,
Lloyd E. Milburn
Director, Office of Emergency Transportation (202) 366-5270
are provided to the Secretary. following the conclusion of a crisis response, OET develops after action reports to summarize lessons learned. Those actions requiring further discussion and study to determine if policies, plans or procedures need refinement are defined.
Other OET responsibilities include:
Strategic Mobility: OET works closely with the Office of the Secretary of Defense, the Joint Staff, the US Transportation Command and the transportation operating agencies to provide for civil transportation service in support of national mobilization and deployment objectives. The office manages the DoT responsibilities in the Civil Reserve Air Fleet and other mobility programs.
Continuity of Government: OET develops plans and policies for the uninterrupted performance of essential DoT functions at the national and regional levels in the event of a major disruption of government, i.e , an act of terrorism or a catastrophic disaster.
International Transportation: OET performs the responsibilities for NATO civil aviation planning assigned to DoT by the Department of State. Also, OET coordinates a cooperative program with Transport Canada for joint transborder planning and response.

EDITOR'S NOTE: At press time the transportation management functions of the General Services Administration (GSA) were being significantly re-aligned. What is currently known is presented here; however, complete details will not be available until later.
he General Services Administration (GSA) provides supplies and services support to the Federal community through the Federal Supply Service (FSS). FSS ' s Transportation Management Division is responsible for developing programs which provide for the economical and efficient movement of freight and household goods shipments and reduce Federal travel costs.
• Travel Management
The government spends over $7 billion a year on official travel for its employees. FSS commercial travel management service programs provide participating Federal agencies with a comprehensive approach to managing the performance of official travel by their employees, and the payment of travel- related expenses.
• Freight Management
FSS is also responsible for providing civilian executive agencies with program and policy guidance that will ensure their freight is shipped efficiently and at the lowest cost. They conduct liaison programs with civilian agencies to assist them in the establishment and/or improvement of their freight traffic programs. FSS also oversees the operations of the Standard
Tender of Service General Freight Traffic Management Program. The program standardizes the format and process by which carriers file Government discounted rates . This program is similar to the Department of Defense's (DoD) CONUS Freight Management program issued by the Military Traffic Management Command to route DoD traffic.
• Household Goods
FSS continues to process annually over 20,000 household goods cost comparisons requested by civilian agencies on behalf of relocating employees. These computer-based routings calculate the cost of shipping household goods based on tenders on file with FSS which contain discounts of up to 40 percent of comparable commercial tariffs.

1995 was a fantastic year as we were able to reorganize our Chapter with a variety of transportation enthusiasts throughout our Okinawa community. LTG Honor installed our officers at the November meeting and he provided us with a little boost in getting started.
We want to thank those who contributed to our Misato Children's Orphanage toy drive with their generous donations: SatoTravel, Jumbo Tours, China Airlines, Sangyo Kouun, the 1315th Medium Por t Command and many others were tremendous supporters.
We will elect a new president early in 1996, and will seek volunteers for the SatoTravel Fair, where we will have an INTA booth to raise funds.
Kudos to Robin Brown for working so hard to make the revamped Okinawa Chapter a success!

Happy New Year! And congratulations to the newest A-35 Regional Representatives. From the Eastern Region, Lucille Manko has been named, and the Central Region has appointed Kim Campbell. Hopefully, the European Region position will be filled soon. In the meantime, I continue to receive the names of A-35 Chapter Representatives, and ask that the Regional Representatives keep sending them. Once I have all the names, an organizational chart will be distributed to all regions to assist with communicating and sharing of ideas.
The new A-35 brochure (shown below) received rave reviews among the Dallas Forum attendees. It reflects the diversity, leadership and professionalism evident in our younger members, and serves as a good introduction to those not familiar with NDTA or the A-35 program.
Your chapter should have received a supply of the brochures by now. If not, please contact NDTA headquarters. Please use them to share information about the A-35 program and NDTA and to keep and grow our membership. Finally, be sure to stop by and say hello and collect the latest information on the A-35 program at the upcoming MTMC Symposium in Louisville, Kentucky, 2429 March. I look forward to seeing you there.

World Class Logistics: The Challenge of Managing Continuous Change prepared by The Global Logistics Rese a rch Team at Michigan State University published by the Council of Logistics Management, 2803 Butterfield Road, Oak Brook, Illinois 60521-1156, 1995, cost members $35 and nonmembers $70.
This book is a result of ten years of research conducted by the Michigan State University and doctoral students concerning logistics management. It focused on four goals: 1) generalization-to elaborate and better understand the fundamental aspects of superior logistics performance; 2) universality-to confirm the growing belief that capabilities and supporting practices of world class logistics are fundamentally the same throughout industrially developed nations; 3) dynamics-to better understand how logistics managers accomplish high impact change; and 4) relevancy-to develop factual and circumstantial evidence to support the contention that being world class matters. The study consisted of a baseline survey administered by mail in eleven countries, in-depth interviews and supporting workbooks from firms perceived to be superior logistics performers in North America, Europe, and the Pacific Basin, and three doctoral dissertations focusing on the development and maintenance of logistics alliances.
The researchers developed, as a result of the study, a far more specific understanding of what the "best-ofthe-best" logistics firms do to acheive world class status. They have constructed a new model to aid in the understanding of world class logistics. Their World Class Logistics Model focuses on the simultaneous achievement of four key competencies: positioning-the selection of strategic and structural approaches to guide the logistical operations; integration-deals with internal achievement of logistical operating excellence and boundary expanding development of solid supply chain relationships; agility-relates to a firm's competency with respect to relevancy, accommodation, and flexibility; and measurement-concerning internal and external monitoring of results.
The World Class Logistics Model identifies 17 measurable capabilities that are considered integral to logistical superiority. These capabilities represent the ways and means of being world class. The researchers believe that most firms have room for improvement in most of the capability areas. Therefore, logistics managers are constantly dealing with change. Continuous improvement in the capabilities is required if the firms are to achieve world class. The researchers believe that it is necessary for logistics managers to attempt through change to reach world class logistical. They believe that logistics capabilities are universal and will become increasingly global in nature.
The book contains an executive overview and ten chapters plus five appendices to discuss the researchers' vision of logistics and their World Class Logistics Model. They also discuss the challenge of managing change and the challenges of the 1990s and beyond. The book includes two diskettes to help readers access and utilize

the data gleaned from the research: an "Electronic Appendix" disk in the Visual Basic format; and a "Diagnostic" disk in the Microsoft Excell 5 0 for Windows format.
This book should be of use to logistics managers, educators and students. I plan to use it as one of the texts in an undergraduate advanced logistics class.
Freight Claims in Plain English, by William J. Augello and George Carl Pezod and Canadian Annotations by Catherine A. Pawluch and Christine E. Hart, a two-volume set published by Transportation Claims and Prevention Council, Inc., 120 Main Street, Huntington, New York, 11743, 3d Edition , 1995, cost members $95 and $125 plus $5 shipping and handling for nonmembers.

Volume 2: Appendices contains over 750 pages of reference materials containing the text of important statutes, regulations, court decisions, treaties and administrative rulings, plus forms and other reference materials. Sections include: 101 Declinations and What to do About Them (When Liability is Denied; When Liability is Admitted, but Claim is Disallowed as Filed Declinations); Federal Statutes; Interpretations and Legislative History; Federal Regulations and Rulings; Contracts of Carriage; Tariffs; Court Procedures, Forms and Decisions; Arbitration Procedures and Forms, Claims Procedures, Forms and Charts; and Proposed International Treaties.
