Ihope all of you had the best Holiday Season and are still in good standing with your New Year's resolutions as you read this.
I'd like to mention several of the A-35 activities updates that have been sent to me since the Forum. The San Antonio Chapter has been very busy! Their Annual NDTA Golf Tournament was held at Randolph AFB on November 1. Sponsored by Jackie Robinson (an A-35er at SatoTravel of Lackland AFB), the event drew 80 golfers with 16 hole sponsors. This was their largest tournament to date, and it raised $2,000 toward their scholarship fund. Their Christmas party was held on December 15 at Brooks AFB and helped to conclude their Book Drive for the American Merchant Marine Library Association (AMMLA). They finished with more than 10 boxes of books. Their next project is an A-35 membership drive in January. Thanks to SSgt. Ken Russell, A- 35 Southeast Regional Representative, for sharing with us the activities of his very active chapters.
The Scott-St. Louis Chapter has also been very active. Marshall Mantiply provided DTJ with an article about the Chapter's recent Amtrak Dinner Trip to Washington, MO (see Chapter News). What a great idea-I have
heard so many comments and positive feedback from the participants!
Marshall also informed me that the Chapter would be working with the Vincent DePaul Society in East St. Louis during the month of December to help sort clothing collected for distribution to needy folks in the St. Louis area. In addition, the Chapter was also planning participation in food drives.
The AMMLA Book Drive is going great! As the boxes of books are accumulating, we're preparing them for shipment. The first shipment consisted of 26 boxes weighing more than 400 pounds. This was primarily the Washington, DC, Chapter's contribution. We have at least that many boxes that have been picked up from DLA Headquarters, and we're hearing from Chapters all over the country. As the drive wraps up, I'll be receiving more information to pass along to you. We also heard from the Virginia Port Authority which will be sending AMMLA 15 copies of each issue of its magazine, The Virginia Maritimer, throughout 1997.
I'd like to close the column for this month by wishing everyone a great 1997 and thanking all of you for your help and interest in our A-35 activities during 1996.

The Airline Ticket Tax
Where do the consumers stand in the proposal to change the method of collecting the Airline Ticket Tax? First, some form of user tax is necessary to adequately fund the FAA. Second, I believe that the users of the airlines, i.e. passengers, should provide the funds for the safety of the country's airways. If we accept these assumptions, the question remaining is to find the solutions that are fairest to the users (passengers or consumers).
In all my years in the transportation business, I have never heard a consumer complain about paying user taxes as long as every user paid the same. This is not to say that there was no one who complained about taxes (sin taxes, fuel taxes, airline ticket taxes, income taxes, sales taxes, personal property taxes, etc.) Who wants to pay taxes? No one. I am sure that all my readers have heard the old adage about tax everyone but not me.
I do not understand the complaints about .a flat tax rate, e.g. 10 percent of the cost of the airline ticket. It is easily administered and easily understood by the consumer. It reflects the length of the flight and other costs concerned with the operations of the airline. Each airline sets the price of the ticket which determines the tax amount. Each airline collects the tax and forwards it to the Trust fund.
Am I missing something? An airline collects the tax from the customer and turns this money over to the US Treasury. How does this give an indirect or direct subsidy to a carrier? Does changing the method of collecting the user tax mean that an airline will reduce its ticket price or simply keep more of the customer's money for itself? At this time, I see no reason to change the method of collecting the airline user tax. It appears to me that the customer stands to loose if the method of assessment for the airline ticket tax is complicated.
Further, I see no reason for a subsidy, direct or indirect, for members of the airline industry, low cost or high cost airlines. Are the airlines free from economic regulation or not? I do not understand why the GAO report to Congress thinks that additional study is needed to determine the economic consequences of changing the method of accessing the user of the airlines.
I can see no reason to change the way the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is funded. I believe that the fairest way to fund the FAA is to let the users pay. Why should someone who never or seldom flies pay for the upkeep of the airlines any more
that one who never or seldom drives pay for the upkeep of the highways?
What is needed is to restore the user (Airline Ticket) tax as soon as possible to prevent the deterioration of the Nation's airways.
We need to spend this revenue to insure the safety of flight not for the promotion of one element of the industry or the industry as a whole. The airlines are perfectly capable of promoting the industry and each member is also capable of promoting itself. DTJ

Happy 1997 to all NDTA members, families and friends. I hope that you have a healthy and prosperous New Year. Again this year we are pleased to provide our Annual Almanac Edition, a compilation of the who's who in Defense Transportation and related areas. The 1997 version marks the 25th Silver Anniversary of NDTA Almanacs. This edition of DTJ is retained by many and used as a telephone directory for government agencies and private sector companies that are involved in the various aspects of transportation, logistics, technology and many other areas. We have devoted many hours to the assembly of this information and while we believe we have a good product, your views are always welcomed on how we may improve.
In last year's Almanac edition of DTJ, I discussed the development of Resolutions for our Association. A draft was discussed and circulated at our National Forum and Exposition in Orlando. A comment period of 45 days was also given. That period ended in mid-December, so you may expect to receive copies of the Board approved Resolutions not later than mid-March. I thank all who took the time to offer constructive comments.
This is an election/re-election year for national NDTA officers. BrigGen Mal Hooker, our Chairman Emeritus, is heading the 1997 Nominating Committee. You may submit nominations to the Committee through the National headquarters by 1 June 1997.
Last year, we awarded $18,000 in merit scholarships to deserving students. It is time to start working on scholarship applications for the '97-'98 school yearthey must be submitted by mid-April. High school students who are dependents of NDTA members are also eligible to apply. Scholarship applications are in the Awards Program Handbook-all NDTA chapter presidents have copies. Ifyou cannot locate one, call or write Norbert Grabowski at National headquarters.
National Transportation Week/Defense Transportation Day will be celebrated during the week of May 12-
16. National Maritime Day is May 22. Start to make your chapter plans now. I ask that you provide photographs of your local events for publication in DTJ.
Chapters desiring to host our National Forum and Exposition in the year 2001 should contact Denny Edwards to obtain specifications/requirements data. The completed proposal must arrive at NDTA headquarters not later than 1 June 1997. It is important that you meet that date because I personally visit each city proposed.
Our 52nd Forum and Exposition, hosted by our San Francisco Bay Area Chapter, will be held in Oakland, California, from 27 September to 1 October 1997. Now, isn't that right around the corner? Mark your calendars now for what we promise will continue to be a world class event. A program outline will be provided in the very near future. The March/April DTJ will contain hotel reservation information. The hotels will not accept reservations before that time.
On behalf of the National Defense Transportation Association, I wish to congratulate the United States Air Force on its 50th Anniversary. As a member of our Nation's National Defense Security team, you can take pride in your many achievements and contributions. A special congratulations to our Air Force transportersyou are truly ambassadors for our Nation as you visit all corners of the world supporting humankind.
I thank all of you who have supported the goals and aims of NDTA during 1996 and for many years. I ask that you continue that dedication in 1997 and have a super successful year. DTJ

On behalf of the Secretary of Defense, the Assistant Deputy Under Secretary of Defense for Transportation Policy (ADUSD(TP)) oversees all Department of Defense (DoD) transportation issues and develops policies for all aspects of the Defense Transportation System. The Defense Transportation Vision is a "world class, globally capable, intermodal transportation system that is responsive, efficient, fully integrated, and in partnership with industry-ensuring readiness, sustainability, and quality of life."
To ensure responsive transportation capability for wartime as well as a safe, secure, and efficient peacetime distribution system, the ADUSD(TP) promotes programs which guide organic and contracted transportation agencies in effectively executing personal property and cargo movements, passenger travel, and worldwide deployments of military personnel and equipment. The ADUSD(TP) is also responsible for transportation policies governing the Military Postal System and the Military Customs Program.
Transportation policies and programs are coordinated with the Joint Staff, the Military Departments, the Unified Commands, and the Defense Agencies. Most policies and programs are executed by the U.S. Transportation Command (USTRANSCOM) through its Components: Air Mobility Command (AMC), Military Sealift Command (MSC), and Military Traffic Management Command (MTMC).
Airlift. The Civil Reserve Air Fleet (CRAF) consists of passenger and cargo aircraft which commercial carriers have agreed to make available for DOD use in times of crisis. In return for their participation in the CRAF program, carriers receive preference for DoD's peacetime passenger and cargo business. The carriers are also guaranteed that the burden of a deployment will be spread fairly among all participants.
Calling up CRAF Stage I aircraft provides DOD access to about 9 percent of the passenger capacity and 15 percent of the cargo capacity in the long-range U.S. commercial fleet. Aircraft employed by Stage III constitute as much as 59 percent of the passenger capacity and 75 percent of the cargo capacity in the long-range U.S. commercial fleet. All three stages are activated by the Commander-in-Chief of USTRA..""JSCOM, with
Mr. John F. Phillips
Deputy Under Secretory of Defense (Logistics)
The Honorable William S. Cohen Secretory of Defense
the approval of the Secretary of Defense.
The NDTA Military Airlift Committee has provided an excellent forum for facilitating dialogue between the air carrier industry and DoD. Following the firstever CRAF activation during Operations Desert Shield/Storm, DOD accomplished a number of CRAF business and operational revitalization efforts. Major initiatives included: (1) renewed emphasis on awarding DOD airlift contracts to CRAF participants; (2) making CRAF participation a prerequisite for General Services Administration passenger and domestic express small package airlift contracts valued at $1.6 billion; (3) Congressional approval of legislation authorizing the Secretary of Defense to use Defense appropriations to pay aviation war riskinsurance claims in a timely manner; and (4) Congressional approval of legislation allowing CRAF carriers to use military airfields. Continuous dialogue and annual contracts with CRAF participants ensure the CRAF program is responsive to changing conditions while assuring access to the airlift capability essential to preserving our national interests.
Sealift. Sealift capacity comes from: ships operating in commercial trade, commercial ships under long-term charter to the DoD, and governmentowned ships maintained in reserve status. These vessels provide three primary types of capacity: 1) container capacity, primarily for moving supplies (food, parts, consumables, and ammunition); 2) RollOn-Roll-Off (RO/RO) capacity to move the wheeled, tracked, and aviation equipment of combat units; and, 3) tanker capacity for fuels. In addition, the older breakbulk ships (principally in the reserve inventory) and barge-moving ships can carry both military equipment and supplies.
The U.S.-flag commercial fleet contains 32.4 ships with military utility. These include 128 dry cargo ships, 104 tankers, and 2 passenger ships. These ships can be accessed through charter, the Voluntary Tanker Agreement (VTA), or the Voluntary Intermodal Sealift Agreement (VISA).
VISA is a CRAF-like program developed by USTRANSCOM, the Maritime Administration (MARAD), and the maritime industry to provide a responsive transition from peace to contingency operations through pre-coordinated agreements for obtaining intermodal sealift capacity. On October 8, 1996, the President signed the Maritime Security Act (MSA) into law. The MSA requires the establishment of a fleet of active, privately-owned, militarily-useful vessels to meet national defense and other security requirements. The Maritime Security Program is funded to provide $2.1 million per ship annually for 47 ships through FY 2005. Each vessel selected is entered into the Emergency Preparedness Program and VISA

Stage III.
Another 136 vessels that could contribute to military missions-65 dry cargo ships, 64 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 ships' requisitioning. Much of the available tanker capacity is in the EUSC fleet. These vessels may be accessed through charter, the VTA, or requisitioning.
Currently, DOD is chartering 8 dry cargo ships and 10 tankers from commercial operators to transport military cargoes to locations not accessible by regular commercial service. Additionally, MSC has 10 Ready Reserve Force (RRF) ships, 23 chartered ships, and 1 Navy-owned oiler in the Afloat Prepositioning Force.
For more than a decade, the proportion of container ships in the commercial fleet has been increasing. However, these ships cannot carry most types of unit equipment without the installation of adaptive devices or national defense features. Even so, the time required to deploy unit equipment in container ships may take too long and may still not permit the ships to offload at primitive or damaged port facilities. Therefore, 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 85 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 they can be ready to sail in four days.
• Two are aviation support ships-floating Marine Corps maintenance depots-capable of full operation in five days.
• Two are hospital ships capable of full operation in five days.
• The remaining 75 dry cargo ships, 8 tankers, and 2 passenger ships are in the RRF.
The Mobility Requirements Study Bottom-Up Review validated a need for the acquisition of 19 Large Medium Speed Roll-On/Roll-Off (LMSR) vessels for afloat prepositioning and for transporting combat and support equipment of early-deploying Army divisions. The first five ships were purchased on the world market and sent to U.S. shipyards for conversion for military use. The 14 remaining LMSRs will be new vessels, constructed at U.S. shipyards. The FY 1998-2003 program includes more than $1.9 billion in ship construction funds to complete the LMSR program.
Transportation. Transportation is a primary function of the DOD logistics system. During FY 96, DoD's worldwide transportation program exceeded $8 billion. The program supports the maintenance of transportation infrastructure and services which affect the efficient movement of material, personnel, and personal property. The DOD relies on commercial transportation to meet over 85 percent of its peacetime and wartime transportation requirements. Partnerships with industry promote better understanding of military requirements and maximum use of industry's extensive intermodal and systems capabilities.
In May 1995, the Deputy Secretary of Defense directed the establishment of a task force to reengineer the Defense Transportation System. The task force has focused its efforts in four areas: 1) developing the Defense Transportation Vision for the 21st Century (approved in October 1995); 2) developing a Transportation Acquisition Policy; 3) streamlining the transportation billing and payment processes; and 4) assessing the transportation infrastructure.
Formulation of a Transportation Acquisition Policy statement is nearing completion. This policy will, for the first time, provide consistent guidance for the acquisition of all commercial transportation and related services to fulfull customer intermodal movement requirements from origin to destination. It will also require that carriers participate in the appropriate DOD readiness program (i.e., CRAF, VISA, Contingency Response Program) as a condition for receiving DOD business, and that carrier In-Transit Visibility (ITV) data is passed to the Global Transportation Network (GTN).
ITV is the capability to track Defense cargo, passengers, medical patients, and personal property as they move from origin to destination during peacetime, deployment, sustainment, or redeployment. An operational version of GTN, the vehicle for ITV, was fielded in Europe during the Fall of 1996 to support U.S. Forces deployed to Bosnia.
Other initiatives promising improved readiness and cost reduction are the Joint Transportation Corporate Information Management Center OTCC) and Defense Transportation Electronic Data Interchange (EDI). The JTCC is overseeing the development and implementation of 23 designated DOD transportation migration systems. Among the most critical of these systems is the Transportation Coordinator Automated Information for Movements System II (TC-AIMS 11), which will be used to deploy/redeploy units and move supplies during peacetime, contingencies, and war. TC-AIMS II will be a key source system for ITV data. The JTCC has also focused its efforts on achieving functional process improvement and data standardization. The Defense Transportation EDI initiative will reduce the manpower, time, and paperwork required for acquiring and paying for transportation services.
To improve the quality of life for our Service members and their families, DOD has embarked on a program to raise the level of service provided during shipment and storage of personal property. The goals of this effort include reducing loss and damage, simplifying personal property shipment and storage processes, and streamlining claims procedures. Transportation Management Professional Enhancement Program (PEP). The 12-month DOD Transportation Management Professional Enhancement Program, sponsored by the ADUSD(TP), is designed for transportation professionals with top management potential. Participants representing the Military Services and Defense agencies receive unique rotational assignments with DOD and transportation organizations which include the Defense Logistics Agency, MTMC, and the Military Departments. For more details on this program contact LTC(P) Steve Frazier, OADUSD(TP), at (703) 697-7286.
LTG John J. Cusick, USA
Director for Logistics (J-4) (703) 697-7000
Tie Logistics Directorate, J-4, under the leadership of TG John). Cusick, USA, serves the Chairman of he Joint Chiefs of Staff in his primary role as advisor to the National Command Authorities. With a strong background in Logistics, LTG Cusick previously served as the Commander, Aviation and Troop Support Command; Director for Supply and Maintenance, Office of the Deputy Chief of Staff for Logistics; Commanding General, U.S. Army Quartermaster Center and School; Commanding General, Defense Personnel Support Center; and Commander 1st Corps Support Command, XVIII Airborne Corps. The J-4 provides the Chairman with a strategic, joint perspective on logistics. Although the Joint Staff has no command or logistics executive authority, it serves as a major coordinating agency within the planning and programming systems. The J-4 director is supported by Maj Gen John D. Hopper, Jr., USAF, the Vice Director for Logistics, and Col Daniel Mongeon, Deputy Director for Readiness and Requirements. The J-4 Directorate consists of seven divisions with approximately 90 people on the staff.
The Logistics Directorate's seven divisions provide functional expertise on key joint logistics processes. The divisions are: Logistics Readiness Center; International Logistics and Engineering; Mobility; Readiness and Requirements; Logistics Information Systems; Sustainability, Mobiliz.ation, Plans and Exercises; and Medical Readiness.
Operational Logistics.
The Logistics Readiness Center (LRC), under the leadership of Col Scott Gray, USAF (703-697-0744) manages current logistical operations and responds to crisis actions from the National Military Command Center. The LRC is
organized to manage daily logistics actions as well as actions required during periods of national emergency, heightened international tensions, exercises and situations of an extraordinary nature that require intensive management, including response to disaster and humanitarian relief requests. The LRC provides the nucleus staff and facilities necessary to meet the logistics taskings of the Chairman and higher authority during a crisis. Staff support for an expanded LRC comes from the J-4 divisions with augmentation from USTRANSCOM and DLA. During Operations Uphold Democracy and Vigilant Warrior, the center was staffed 24-hours a day and monitored the integrated actions of defense agencies, service logistics commands, and the efforts of the supported and supporting commanders.
International Logistics.
Capt. Robert Massey, USN, (703-697-5469), heads the International Logistics and Engineering Division. The Division advises the J-4 Director on DOD involvement in U.S. treaties and agreements with foreign nations, international logistics policies and procedures, host nation matters, humanitarian assistance projects, and joint civil engineering issues. This division is responsible for policies and procedures concerning acquisition, cross-servicing, supply, and maintenance in overseas areas. They also assist the J-4 Director in assessing the impact of and providing support for UN peacekeeping operations and matters 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 participates in military construction and burden-sharing pro-

grams that fund infrastructure development. It 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 MarkJ.D. Gehri, USAF, (703-697-2257), analyzes and evaluates the joint aspects of mobility plans, policy, programs, and doctrine. 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 regarding 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. Also, the Division oversees several other programs vital to the health of the nation's strategic mobility forces: C-17, Ready Reserve Force (RRF), Voluntary Intermodal Sealift Agreement (VISA), Civil Reserve Air Fleet (CRAF), Joint Logistics Over the Shore CTLOTS), and Large Medium Speed Roll-on/Roll-off (LMSR) ships. They published the first-ever Intratheater Lift Analysis (ILA) last July as the Division's focus expands to increase emphasis on the portion of the deployment • pipeline downstream of the ports of debarkation including the concept of Joint Reception Staging Onward Movement and Integration CTRSOI).
Readiness and Requirements.
Capt Edward J. Fishburne, USN, (703-695-2934) is the Readiness and Requirements Division Chief. 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 coordinates Joint Logistics Doctrine, drafting and revising, and serves as the J-4 focal point for the planning, programming and budgeting system (PPBS) as well as coordinating Logistics related Congressional issues. The Division also coordinates the Joint Requirements Oversight Council CTROC) issues for the J-4 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 (JWCA) and the Joint Monthly Readiness Review CTMRR) 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. Key logistics functional areas and critical support units are included in the recurring JMRR assessments. The Division also serves as theJ-4 coordinator of]oint Vision 2010 CTV2010) including specific responsibility for Focused Logistics tenets. Information Systems.
Col Pierce King, USMC (703-695-0967) heads the newly established Logistics Information Systems Division (LISD). The Division is the Logistics Director's focal point to coordinate with the Services, Agencies, CINCs, and the OSD Prin-
cipal Staff Assistants on all logistics information systems policy, implementation plans, interoperability standards and other Joint issues. The Joint Total Asset Visibility CTTAV) initiative, Joint Logistics Advanced Concepts Technology Demonstration CTL ACTD), Automatic Identification Technology (AIT), and the Global Transportation Network (GTN) are only a few of the example of logistics information that require cross-functional oversight today. In addition to proving a single POC for logistics systems, the Division provides the staff to support the Director of Logistics recently accepted role as the functional proponent for the Global Combat Support System (GCSS). GCSS will provide a command operating environment necessary to achieve information interoperability.
Planning for, Sustaining and Mobilizing the Force.
COL Tom Waterman, USA (703-697-1535) heads the Sustainability, Mobilization, Plans and Exercises Division. Sustainability issues relating to joint integration in such areas as fuels, munitions, mortuary affairs, war reserve materiel (including positioned assets), and materiel sourcing are key functions. In the areas of mobilization, issues dealing with both material (from military and commercial sources) and reserve call-up are handled by this Division. The Division also ensures that combatant command operations and contingency plans adhere to established joint logistics doctrine, policies, and the National Military Strategy. Finally, integration of all logistics planning for joint wargames and exercises is provided and division members participate in numerous CINC and Joint Chief of Staff sponsored wargames and exercises.
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 CTHSS) 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 works closely with the Unified commands, particularly U.S. Transportation Command, in identifying and developing joint solutions for the combatant command's aeromedical evacuation issues. This includes support of exercises, operations, low-intensity conflicts, and contingency operations. Through the JWCA wargaming process, the J4 medics are orchestrating the military's future vision of how HSS will be provided to our Service men and women. This division, known as JHSSS Vision 2010, is a creative enterprise and will set the direction for 21st century deployed JHSS.
Looking to the Future.
In May 1996, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff released Joint Vision 2010. JV2010 was designed to be the operational template for the evolution of the Armed Forces of the United States. "Focused Logistics" was formally identified as one of four main pillars of the joint warfighting process. The J-4, in conjunction with the CINCs and Services, has developed a Focused Logistics Action Plan designed to address key issues affecting the joint logistics community. Focused Logistics is the fusion of logistics information coupled with rapid transportation for deployment and sustainment, rapid crisis response, and direct delivery of tailored logistics packages to the tactical level of operations.

Itis not surprising that the Defense Logistics Agency's (DLA) motto is "Around the Clock, Around the World." By responding to its customer's needs and adopting improved practices, DLA has evolved as the provider of choice for the military services. With more than 3.9 million DLA managed items and customers in most countries of the world, it is imperative 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 five supply centers that manage and purchase items used by all of the military services and some civilian agencies, including fuel, food, clothing, medical supplies, construction materiel, and the electronic and hardware items used in the maintenance and repair of military equipment. 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 378,000 prime contracts worth in excess of $955 billion.
The distribution function of DLA has undergone 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 30.1 million transactions a year and stores approximately 5.1 million items valued at $99.4 billion.
DLA also manages other Department of Defense logistic support services. These are the Defense Logistics Services Center, the Defense National Stockpile, the Defense Reutilization and Marketing Service, and the Defense Automated Printing Service.
Located at 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
Col David A. Ellison, USAF Asst. Executive Director Tronsporlotion Group (703) 764-3644
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 delivery 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 more 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 containerization points to military aerial ports of embarkation for overseas shipment via military aircraft. This Air Mobility Command contract requires door-todoor delivery within four business days.
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, contractor-
operated 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-establi shed a reinvention laboratory that has worked state-of-the-art business practices for over two years. 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 inventory 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-the Army's Military Traffic Management Command (MTMC), the Navy's Military Sealift Command (MSC), and the Air Force's Air Mobility Command (AMC)-USTRANSCOM is responsible for maintaining a defense transportation system (DTS) ready and capable of meeting the nation's needs.
Since arriving in July, U.S. Air Force Gen. Walter Kross, USTRANSCOM's Commander in Chief, has focused the command's attention on three themes-readiness, process improvement and modernization. Achievement in these areas spell success or failure of global mobility in the 21st century.
Readiness-maintaining the command's ability to fulfill its mission-involves delivering goods and people on time for the warfighting commanders in chiefs (CINCs). USTRANSCOM people and assets are usually the first in and the last out of any theater of operations. The command's core mission remains to support the warfighting CINCs.
Regional CINCs along with the other functional CINCs are USTRANSCOM's most important customers. Consequently, USTRANSCOM ensures the right force is lifted and delivered to support the CINCs during both peace and war. But supporting any particular CINC to fight a war is not enough. USTRANSCOM has to be ready to support two nearly simultaneous major regional conflicts as well as continuing to support most of the command's daily customers worldwide*.
Process Improvement-To meet these requirements, USTRANSCOM must lead the transportation team through efficient and effective processes. The second main theme is to continually improve the key processes which are so important to the effective operation of the DTS. For example, the Army can't move unless the deploying unit produces-at the beginning-the Time Phased Force and Deployment Data (TPFDD) list for USTRANSCOM. Without a TPFDD, USTRANSCOM doesn't know how many military and Civil Reserve Air Fleet (CRAF) airplanes to send.
One example of how USTRANSCOM is improving processes is the establishment of the Joint Mobility Control Group CTMCG). The JMCG will standardize command and control centers and activities among USTRANSCOM and its component commands, ensuring they are organized the same and equipped with state-ofthe-art technology. The idea is to integrate traffic management through a network of DTS agents using the Global Transportation Network (GTN) and a wide range of modeling and simulation decision tools to achieve intransit and total asset visibility.
GTN, a USTRANSCOM-initiated command and control system, provides decision support tools and in-transit visibility (ITV) capabilities through its integrated transportation database. It is expected to reach initial operating capability in February 1997. It will integrate transportation data from component commands and other DOD agencies, allowing USTRANSCOM to provide warfighting commanders with information critical to their battlefield awareness. By providing the status of personnel and materiel at all times as they move through the DTS, GTN will significantly improve the ability of the commander to respond to rapidly changing priorities.
Modernization-While focusing on readiness and improving processes, USTRANSCOM also has to modernize ships, aircraft, railcars and support equipment * as well as the technology within them* to interface with evolving transportation environments required for any global mobility organization to operate around the world.
In the area of strategic lift, USTRANSCOM's focus is on force projection and high speed, precision sustainment. Leaner, faster, and smarter logistics systems are necessary. The effective use of available military and commercial ships and aircraft will be the command's major challenge when deploying forces. To meet this challenge, the command, in

partnership with the Maritime Administration (MARAD), has developed a new Civil Reserve Airfleet (CRAF)-like program-Voluntary Intermodal Sealift Agreement, or VISA-to ensure adequate commercial sealift capacity, access to intermodal systems, and continued partnership with the maritime industry. Similarly, continuing and enhancing the partnership with CRAF carriers will be key to the airlift the command needs to support expeditious movement of forces worldwide.
VISA will provide pre-negotiated contracts, guaranteed access to needed assets, contracts for capacity and intermodal resources in exchange for cargo business and a tailored sealift force to meet the specific sustainment needs of • a contingency. It also will permit industry and USTRANSCOM to jointly plan responses before a contingency begins. All major U.S. carriers have approved and joined VISA and its Joint Planning Advisory Group OPAG).
One shortfall with the CRAF program was the lack of sufficient funds in the Federal Aviation Administration war risk insurance program to promptly pay an air carrier for the loss of a new aircraft. The fiscal year 1997 DOD Authorization Act has remedied this problem by statutorially authorizing the Secretary of Defense to transfer sufficient funds from DOD Operations and Maintenance accounts to FAA to pay a CRAP claim within 30 days of filing a claim for loss. The legislation provides similar relief for the sealift industry.
The C-17 program continues on track. This newest airlifter "earned its spurs" with an exceptional performance during the Bosnia deployment. USTRANSCOM is working to ensure known modification requirements are incorporated into the production line-a much more economical approach than retrofitting later. The C-141 fleet is currently healthy but is reaching the end of its useful service life last one to retire from service in fiscal year 2006. The timely replacement of the C-141 by the C-17 aircraft is viewed as the command's top air mobility priority.
• Reliable, capable aircraft constitutes only one piece of the air mobility puzzle. The command's present inven-
tory of material handling equipment (MHE) is insufficient to support wartime demands, particularly for wide-body commercial aircraft. The command has only 61 percent of the required Wide-body Elevator Loaders, the only means to reach aircraft such as the B74 7. The new 60K loader is a first step toward solving the MHE problem. In addition, USTRANSCOM is aggressively pursuing the Next Generation Small Loader, which will provide wide-body offload capability at forward locations, enabling support to all military and commercial aircraft with fewer pieces of MHE.
Acquisition of Large Medium-Speed Roll-on/Roll-Off (RO/RO) (LMSR) ships remains the highest sealift priority. USTRANSCOM is overseeing the acquisition of 11five converted and six newly constructed-:- LMSRs for the surge sealift fleet to be delivered by fiscal year 2001. In addition, deliveries of eight newly constructed LMSRs, which will enter the Afloat Prepositioning Force (APF), are scheduled to be complete by fiscal year 1999, Additionally, five more RO/RO vessels (or like capacity) need to be purchased and upgraded for use in the Ready Reserve Force (RRF) to attain program goals.
Another sealift priority, the Maritime Security Program (MSP), was recently signed into law. It replaces the $4 million a year per ship Operating Differential Subsidy and provides selected U.S. flag operators a $2 million a year per ship payment. The MSP is designed to keep 4 7 U.S. commercial militarily-useful ships sailing under U.S. flags and guarantees merchant mariner reemployment rights after serving on a government sealift asset during a contingency. The Department of Transportation funds the program.
To focus attention on the en route infrastructure system, General Kross in his dual-hatted capacity as Commander, Air Mobility Conimand, and Commander in Chief, USTRANSCOM, has declared 1997 as the Year of the En Route System. The nation depends on the mobility system to provide the global reach necessary to protect national interests. USTRANSCOM's mobility capability is dependent on an en route system comprised of people, infrastructure, and equipment located within the United States and around the globe. USTRANSCOM is turning the system upside down to ensure effectiveness at every level-everything from leadership to manpower to resources to processes. A weakness in one component of the en route system diminishes the entire system's effectiveness.
A USTRANSCOM supported Joint Staff assessment of air mobility en route infrastructure identified major infrastructure deficiencies and programmed fixes. In addition, the study revealed a worldwide need for fuel system projects. The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA), through Defense Fuels Supply Center, prioritizes fuel projects and obtains funding. DLA, Joint Staff, and USTRANSCOM are leading the fight for funding these fuel system projects.
Day-to-day the United States relies on USTRANSCOM to support its national interests worldwide. But the command cannot afford to become complacent. It must hasten to improve under the three main signposts that are the command's rallying themes. It must maintain readiness, refine its processes and continually modernize. The command is a lean, mean, global moving machine and it must stay that way as it moves into the 21st century.

Tie 111,568 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. US 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 only 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 airiift 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 when 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 966 aircraft. Of those, 540 are active-duty and 426 are operated by the Guard/Reserve.

Within the active force, AMC comprises about 8,389 officers, 39,953 airmen, and 8,701 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.; MacDill AFB, Fla.; Robins AFB, Ga.; 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 54,000 Guard and Reserve forces support AMC worldwide taskings.
USTRANSCOM must also prepare for tomorrow's global air traffic environment. The command has taken the first steps-by installing global positioning system receivers and additional safety equipment-to increase the safety of our existing fleet. The focus must also be on improvements needed to operate along oceanic routes, in key terminal areas, and into contingency airfields in

any weather. As early as March 1997, the command will see vertical separation over the North Atlantic increase from 2,000 to 1,000 fleet allowing more aircraft to operate at optimum routes between the United States and Europe. This reduced vertical separation is just the opening chapter to planned global air traffic management (GATM) changes.
The key elements of this new environment are based on emerging technologies in communication, navigation, and surveillance. In this new environment, routine pilot-to-controller voice communications will be augmented and eventually replaced by data transmissions. Navigation will be accomplished with increasingly accurate global navigation satellite systems and advanced aircraft flight management systems
USTRANSCOM is working intensely with the Federal Aviation Administration to be ready for this changing environment, anticipating a need for new avionics and the possibility of extensive modifications to the fleet.
During 1996, AMC aircraft visited almost every country of the world.
On Jan 9, the Provide Promise air bridge to Sarajevo, Bosnia-Herzegovina, ended. For three and one-half years, the aircraft of 21 nations had participated in the United Nations humanitarian airlift which completed nearly 13,000 sorties and delivered more than 160,000 metric tons of supplies to the people of war-torn Sarajevo. AMC and USAFE C-130s and AMC C-141 and C-17 aircraft flew more than 4,500 sorties.
A C-17 Globemaster III left Travis AFB, Calif., Feb. 2 on a nonstop 14.5-hour flight to Tuzla Air Base, Bosnia, carrying 40 tons of fence posts needed to mark mine fields strewn over the Balkan countryside. Two other Globemaster Ills were scheduled to make nonstop flights, but poor weather in Tuzla diverted them to Germany. KC-10 and KC-135 tankers refu e led each C-17 twice en route to Europe . The KC- lOs were from the 305th Air Mobility Wing, McGuire AFB, N.J .. The Stratotanker s were assigned to the 100th Air Refueling Wing's Tanker Task Force at RAF Mildenhall, UK, and the 101st Air Refueling Wing, Bangor Air National Guard Base, Maine.
On Mar. 5, a C-141 from Charleston AFB, S.C., flew nonstop to Tel Aviv with 2,800 pounds of highly sophisticated explosion detection devices. The Starlifter departed Hanscome AFB, Mass., after President Clinton announced the US would send the equipment to Israel, the target of four terrorist suicide bombings in two weeks.
Four KC-135R tankers from the 905th Air Refueling Squadron Grand Forks AFB, N D. , departed on June 30 for Doha, Qatar, to become part of an Airpower Expeditionary Force of 34 aircraft (4 tanker and 30 fighter). The expeditionary force was deployed to Qatar to provide land-based air forces to augment the US forces currently Operation Southern Watch and give the Air Force an opportunity to work and train with coalition partners in the Persian Gulf region through Aug 31.
Approximately 300 DOD family members returned from Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, Aug 18 to Charleston International Airport, SC, aboard a commercial Boeing 747 chartered by the AMC. Because of increased terrorist activity,
the flight returned American families to the continental US from the Persian Gulf region On the previous day, Aug. 17, a C-141 transported 90 cats and dogs belonging to the families to Charleston AFB on a flight that was called " Operation Noah 's Ark. "
A C-141 from the 437th Airlift Wing;, C harleston AFB, SC, airlifted an Air Force medical team from Wilford Hall Medical Center in San Antonio, Texas, to Elmendorf AFB, Alaska, Aug. 20 to help a baby boy suffering from severe lung infections. The C-141 was at Kelly AFB, Texas, ready to depart for Panama, when the Tanker Airlift Control Center at Scott AFB, Ill., arranged the emergency flight. After a six-hour surgery, the infant was attached to an Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenator , and a waiting a C-141 from McChord AFB, Wash , ' transported him to Portland, Ore , for hospitali zation
Nine KC-lOs-one from McGuire AFB, NJ, and eight form Travis AFB, Calif.,-along with 14 KC-135s from Fairchild AFB, Wash., flew air refueling missions in support of the US bombing raid on selected military targets in Iraq Sep. 2 and 3. The tankers performed four critical aerial refuelings that enabled two B-52s to travel 13,683 miles roundtrip. The bombers, assigned to the 2nd Bomb Wing at Barksdale AFB, La., flew the nonstop mission in 34 hours.
A C-5 and a C-141 assigned to the 305th Air Mobility Wing, McGuire AFB , N.J., delivered a generator, medical supplies and diplomatic papers to State Department officials in Burundi, a small east African nation embroiled in civil war. On the outbound leg from Bujumbura, Burundi's capital, the Starlifter evacuated about 30 foreign nationals, including Americans, to Nairobi, Kenya.
Sep. 11, and C-141 airlifted an air transportable hospital and a 44-member medical team on Sep. 17 and 18 from Yokota Air Base, Japan, to Anderson AFB, Guam, to provide medical care for 2,500 Kurds evacuated from northern Iraq.
On Oct . 1, MacDill AFB, Fla. , was transferred from the Air Combat Command to the Air Mobility Command. As part of the transfer, 12 KC-135R Stratotankers were reassigned from Malmstrom AFB, Mont., to MacDill . Headquarters USAF announced plans on Oct. 22 to streamline America's air mobility forces by realigning th e continental US C-130 and C-21 fleets under the AMC. The realignment is expected to take place Apr. 1, and AMC will gain 432 C-130s, 36 C-21s and 13 C-26s, operated by active duty, Guard and Reserve units.
Two C-17s and one each C-5 , C-141 and KC-10 departed the US Nov. 14 for locations in Europe in anticipation of decisions by the National Command Authorities to conduct multi-national reHef operations in support of Rwandan refugees.

The Navy's Military Sealift Command, headed by Vice Adm. James B. Perkins III, U.S. Navy, provides ocean transportation for DOD cargo to sustain U.S. forces worldwide during peacetime and in war. More than 95 percent of all the equipment and supplies needed to sustain the U.S. military are carried by sea.
In peacetime, MSC accomplishes its diverse missions with approximately 130 ships. The command's key business operations are managed in five programs: the Sealift Program, the Prepositioning Program, the Naval Fleet Auxiliary Force Program, the Special Mission Program, and the Ship Introduction Program. These programs function as independent modules-each tailored to the needs of its own unique customer base.
Sealift Program
The Sealift Program is responsible for a fleet of approximately 28 ships which move DOD cargo in peacetime and war. In times of war or other crises, MSC can charter additional dry cargo ships to expand sealift capabilities. By law, MSC must first look to the U.S.flag commercial market. If suitable ships are not available in the U.S. commercial sector, MSC's mobilization resources can be activated, including eight Fast Sealift Ships, as well as another 94 Ready Reserve Force ships which are maintained by the Maritime Administration in various degrees of readiness from four to 90 days. When activated, RRF ships come under the operational control of MSC.
The Sealift Program's normal peacetime operations include primarily chartered dry cargo ships and tankers. The tankers carry DOD fuel from remote supply points worldwide to DOD fuel depots.
Prepositioning Program
The Prepositioning Program includes 34 strategically located ships laden with military equipment and supplies for the U.S. Army, Air Force, Navy and Marine Corps. These ships are critical to the U.S. military's rapid response to crises anywhere in the world.
• Fourteen Army War Reserve Three, or AWR-3, ships carry enough equipment, food, water and other supplies

to support an Army heavy brigade for up to 30 days. The AWR-3 is prepositioned near Diego Garcia, Guam and in the Arabian Gulf.
• Thirteen Maritime Prepositioning Ships are laden with U.S. Marine Corps supplies and equipment. Each of the three MPS squadrons can carry everything needed to support a Marine Corps Expeditionary Brigade, including 17,300 Marine Corps Air Ground Task Force personnel, for 30 days.
• Seven prepositioning ships are loaded with Air Force combat equipment, a Navy field hospital and fuel to meet U.S. military requirements.
• The Prepositioning Program oversees two ships which are ordinarily kept in reduced operating status, the aviation logistics ships SS Wright and SS Curtiss.
Naval Fleet Auxiliary Force Program
The Naval Fleet Auxiliary Force Program operates approximately 35 ships which provide direct support for Navy ships at sea. Most NFAF ships replenish supplies for our military forces afloat. Other ships provide towing services to Navy ships at sea. The ships are crewed by civil service mariners, and each ship carries Navy departments ranging in size from four to 45 people.
The NF AF mission has grown in the last five years. Five combat stores ships have been transferred from the fleet, as well as three ammunition ships. Four more ammunition ships will be transferred in the next two years. MSC's civil service crews are providing high quality service to the fleet at a substantial cost savings over the former military crews.
In addition to logistics operations, NFAF has two hospital ships, USNS Comfort and USNS Mercy, designed to provide emergency on-site care for U.S. forces. Ordinarily kept in a reduced operating status, these huge ships
CAPT Charles R. Burchell, USN Deputy Commonder (202)
can be fully activated, crewed and ready to get under way within five days.
Special Mission Program
The Special Mission Program features more than 30 ships which carry out highly specialized missions around the world, including oceanographic surveys, missile tracking, coastal surveys and cable laying and repair. Military and civilian scientists and technicians are assigned to the ships to conduct specialized mlsslons.
Ship Introduction Program
The Ship Introduction Program oversees MSC's ship acquisitions, including ships currently under construction and conversion to meet MSC and military sponsor requirements, and auxiliary ship transfers from the Navy's fleet. This program is especially important as MSC continues to acquire Combat Logistics Force ships from the Navy's fleet and adds 19 new large, mediumspeed, roll-on/roll-off ships, or LMSRs, by the year 2001.
The new LMSRs are a part of a strategic sealift enhancement program now under way. In 1992 following the Persian Gulf War, the congressionally- mandated Defense Mobility Requirements Study highlighted the need for an additional three million square feet of surge sealift and two million square feet of prepositioning sealift. The 19 LMSRs will compensate for this shortfall. Five vessels are conversions, and the other
14 will be new-construction vessels.
The Ship Introduction Program also manages another DOD program which expands and greatly improves the nation's military sealift capabilities. The congressionally-approved National Defense Features Program provides $50 million to install militarily useful features aboard U.S.-flagged, U.S.-built merchant vessels during construction or conversion. In turn, these ships must be available for DOD support if requested in a national emergency. In late 1996, MSC issued a request for proposals from private industry to begin zeroing in on a range of technically acceptable proposals which offer best value in meeting sealift requirements. A contract is expected to be awarded in 1997.
Headquartered in Washington, D.C., MSC employs almost 8,000 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, U.S. Transportation Command as a component commander for DOD transportation matters. USTRANSCOM has combatant command of MSC's common user sealift assets including the strategic sealift ships and the RRF 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, U.S. Atlantic and Pacific Fleets and U.S. Naval Forces Europe. In this capacity, MSC's auxiliary ships and special mission ships support the Navy's fleet operations worldwide.
In 1996, sealift remained on the front lines of international events. Eighteen ships from MSC's Afloat Prepositioning Force remained in the Arabian Gulf in support of Operation Vigilant Sentinel from August 1995 until October 1996-all serving as con-
stant reminders of U.S. resolve to provide a quick and powerful response to aggression if needed. As 1996 drew to a close, five of the prepositioning ships remained on station-all laden with Army brigade equipment and supplies.
As MSC enters 1997, its roles and responsibilities continue to grow. The command's expertise and cost-efficiency in handling more of the fleet's combat logistics requirements is widely recognized. More ammunition ships will be added to MSC's inventory in the next two years. In addition, MSC's role in defense transportation will receive additional attention as the command adds a total of 19 new and converted sealift ships by the year 2001.
The lessons learned from the Persian Gulf War of the early 1990s and the Mobility Requirements Study and Bottom Up Review have highlighted the need for the U.S. military to have a strong, viable defense positioned "Forward ... From The Sea." In the years that lie ahead, MSC will have a central role in carrying out that defense strategy, and sealift will remain an enduring mission.

e Military Traffic Management Command delivrs the power to the force-anytime, anywhere. We also deliver to the force whatever is needed to sustain it, once deployed.
We focus on four core competencies, or main functions-global traffic management, integrated transportation systems, deployability engineering and worldwide port operations-to achieve our mission.
MTMC, headquartered in Falls Church, Va., is overland lift component and primary traffic manager for USTRANSCOM. MTMC is an Army command. Recently, our Joint Traffic Management Office opened at the headquarters to give customers flexible, more economic service. The JTMO handles the defense transportation system's surface intermodal movements for domestic and international freight, cargo and containers. Combining elements of MTMC and the Military Sealift Command, it is a single, process-oriented office that combines traffic management expertise and purchasing authority for transportation, equipment and intermodal services to meet customer requirements in peace and war.
With the support of five subordinate commands, MTMC tackles its operational goals.
MTMC Eastern Area, located in Bayonne, N.J., covers Central and South America, as well as 28 states in the Eastern United States.
As the premier DOD deployment engineering and analysis center, the Transportation Engineering Agency, Newport News, Va., employs state-of-the-art transportation and information system technologies to satisfy the warfighter's total force projection needs.
MTMC Western Area, headquartered in Oakland, Calif., covers the 20 Western contiguous states and Alaska.
MTMC Pacific, headquartered at Wheeler Army Air Field on Oahu, Hawaii, handles operations in the Pacific Far East and Indian Oceans, an area of responsibility stretching from Hawaii to the east coast of Africa and down to Antarctica.
Headquartered in Rotterdam, The Netherlands, MTMC Europe and Southwest Asia is responsible for Europe, the Near and Middle East and Africa.
Focusing now on our four core competencies, let's
discuss worldwide port operations. MTMC has a presence in 25 water ports worldwide. We transport troops and materiel to ports of embarkation in the United States and overseas. We are also the interface between DOD shippers and the commercial carrier industry.
TEA oversees our deployability engineering competency. The agency has sophisticated analytical systems and advanced technolo-

gie s to formulate timely, accurate solutions to deployment engineering and analysis problems, critical links in achieving DOD mobility gains.
Our integrated transportation system allows customers to track their equipment and enables DOD to revise its business practices to better provide quality service to our customers.
For example, the CONUS Freight Management System gives DOD transportation managers automation to buy commercial freight transportation services. CFM allows shippers to route freight and to electronically notify finance centers so carriers can be paid.
The Transportation Coordinator Automated Command and Control Information System automates transportation functions used to deploy/redeploy Army units worldwide. The system, now undergoing a major hardware/software upgrade, is fielded at 57 sites.

move module in August 1996. The IBS mission is to provide a single worldwide system to integrate existing cargo booking methods.
The Worldwide Port System, planned for 70 sites worldwide, is currently in use at 68 sites in CONUS, Europe and the Western Pacific.
The Transportation Operational Personal Property Standard System is an Office of the Secretary of Defensechartered joint project to automate and standardize all DOD personal property movement, storage, and manage~ ment functions worldwide. The system is cµrrently operating at 313 locations in CONUS and outside CONUS. There are 45 additional OCONUS sites in various stages of implementation.
The Integrated Computerized Deployment System, initiated during first quarter fiscal year 1996, will begin operating during second quarter fiscal year 1997. We tested prototype versions at Sea Deployment Readiness Exercises during 1996.
To summarize our global traffic management function, we decide how military traffic moves and what controls we need to ensure response to our customers' needs. As traffic manager, we influence nearly $4 billion dollars worth of commercial transportation services annually.
Working with industry and other parties helps us to give customers higher quality service, reduce damages, and make it easier to recover claims. One example of this effort is our Household Goods Reengineering Program, which began in 1994. Recently, based -on congressional direction, MTMC met with industry six times during a four-month period to develop a negotiated reengineedng program. As a result, MTMC released a draft solicitation in early December 1996 to test the Household Goods Reengineering Program.
In all of our four core competencies, quality customer service tops our list of mission priorities. To that end, we established a customer service hotline at 1-800 756MTMC (6862). If you have questions about defense transportation issues or want to know how to become a defense contractor, the staff stands ready to assist you from 7:30 a.m. to 4 p m.

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. 7 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 and reengineering of 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 and traffic management policies and participates in DOD efforts to reengineer the entire transportation process. It also develops requirements for Army overocean transportation funding, as well as procedures in support of the Army and and Air Force Exchange Service's cargo movement requirements paid by Army appropriated funds.
The Personal Property/Nontactical Vehicle/Cos-

toms 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 as well as the Army's initiative to outsource transportation services. It 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 (DALOTSD) was formed 1 October 1994. DALO-TSD is the Army staff focal point for strategic and tactical transportation automation. Day to day responsibilities involve proponency and programming responsibilities and staff oversight of assigned system acquisition programs, functional content and integration with existing automation baselines, force structure, policy and procedures. DALO-TSO determines the impact and coordinates Army transportation automation integration with Service and Joint CZ and logistics process initiatives (Velocity Management, Battlefield Distribution, deployment process modernization, Joint Transportation Corporate Information Management Center [JTCC], Global Command and Control System).

Strategic Mobility Division
The Strategic Mobility Division serves as the Army's focal point on strategic mobility, transportation contingency planning and mobilization/deployment issues. Two teams (Strategic Lift and Mobilization/Force Structure) supervise the day-to-day operations and a Mobilization Augmentation Cell provides support during contingency and wartime situations.
A key element of the Division's mission is implementation of the Army's Strategic Mobility Program (ASMP). This program complements the Navy's Strategic Sealift Program and the Air Force's C-17 Program, enabling the US military to project power, rapidly, anywhere in the world. ASMP has evolved into a comprehensive framework for power projection initiatives through which the Army continues to aggressively implement the recommendations of the Congressionally-mandated Mobility Requirements Study (MRS) and NRS Bottom Up Review Update (BURU). Specifically, ASMP provides for prepositioned afloat assets, CONUS infrastructure improvements, force projection "enablers" (such as rail cars, containers, and watercraft), the development of movement command and control systems, and increased deployment training opportunities. Our goal is world~class warfighting power projection platforms from which units can successfully train, mobilize, deploy, sustain, and support America's Army. In view of this, ASMP provides for upgrades to power-projection platforms to ensure efficient deployment of those forces necessary to support CINC warfighting requirements defined in MRS/BURU. Training is essential to rapid deployment capability;
therefore, the Army continues to include Sea Emergency Deployment Readiness Exercises (SEDRE) as a routine part of training, and budgets for periodic Army Prepositioned Afloat exercises.
The Strategic Division's commitment to a synchronized deployment system in support of Army force projection is reaffirmed as we execute the $400M FY 97 program. The initiatives include: 1) continued lease/operation of prepositioned ships, and operation of the prepositioned ships maintaining facility in Charleston, South Carolina; 2) procurement of a floating crane (100-205 Ton), two pusher tugs (small), approximately 200 rail cars, and unit deployment containers; 3) start of four deployment outloading infrastructure projects, and 4) expansion of individual training to include Army War Reserve (AWR)-3 mobile training teams to support units having AWR-3 mission.
The Drilling Individual Mobilization Augmentee Cell (DIMA) augments the Army Logistics Operations Center providing force deployment and transportation management oversight during periods of crisis.

Craig D.Hunter
Deputy Chief of Staff for Logistics and Operations (703) 617-8000
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 285 locations in over 40 states and half a dozen foreign countries plus 70 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 requesting 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 Direc-

tives 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 the foundation of its success. The Directorate's responsibility for developing and implementing Air Force transportation policy is conducted by three divisions: Traffic Management Division (ILTT), Combat Readiness Division (ILTR), and the Vehicle Operations and Maintenance Division (ILTV). Their responsibilities are as follows:
Traffic Management Division. Develops and implements policy for all Air Force personal property programs, passenger air travel eligibility to include patients,

Mission
Th e DoT will " Tie America Togeth er" with a safe, technologically advanced, and e fficient transportation system that promotes economic growth and international competitiveness now and in the future, and contributes to a healthy and secure environment for us and our children.
The Department of Transportation is the federal steward of the nation's transportation system and speaks for transportation in the federal government. It carries out its mission in four ways:
• setting standards for safety and other key aspects of the transportation system and enforcing those regulations.
• distributing funds to state agencies, transportation providers and other transportation-related institutions to plan, construct, and operate the transportation system of America-and shaping the direction of its development in partnership with state and local entities.
• interacting with other federal agencies to carry out broader federal mandates such as clean air and national security policies.
• providing law enforcement and traffic management services for the nation's airspace and waterways.

Federal Aviation Administration
The DoD, with FAA authorization and oversight, operates an Air Traffic Control (ATC) system which is second only to the FAA as the world's largest. Over 500 former military airports are included in the Nation's airport system. FAA personnel are also working in support of the President's 5 Point Plan to stimulate economic development at closing military installations. Other areas of close cooperation include: increasing mutual logistic support; best use of the Global Positioning Satellite System; and research on explosives/weapons detection and aircraft catastrophic failure. In addition, the FAA is responsible for all DOD flight inspection worldwide, in peacetime and all conflict situations.
Federal Highway Administration
Several 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 FHWA 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.

General Services Administration
The General Services Administration's (GSA) Office of Governmentwide Policy is responsible for prescribing policies and procedures pertaining to Governmen twide travel and relocation allowances and entitlements for civilian Federal employees, and transportation and traffic management. In addition to this policy and regulatory development role, GSA's Federal Supply Service makes available to Federal agencies a variety of commercial services programs which control and reduce Federal travel costs and encourage the economical and efficient movement of freight and household goods and shipments. GSA also contracts with commercial auditing firms to provide prepayment audit services to those agencies interested in having their transportation bills examined prior to payment.
• Travel Management
The government spends over $ 7 billion a year on official travel for its employees. PSS commercial travel management services programs (e.g contractor-issued travel charge card, travel management centers, discount passenger transportation and discount lodging 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 and Household Goods Management
FSS's freight and household goods programs simplify the procurement of transportation services. Use of the negotiated rates obtained through these programs ensures that the transportation of freight and household goods shipments is accomplished by the most efficient and economical means. FSS maintains a standard

tender of service which standardizes participating carrier qualifications and performance requirements and includes the rules under which shipments are to be handled by carriers in the program. PSS also conducts liaison programs with civilian agencies to assist them in the establishment and/or improvement of their freight traffic program.

P08~ Port of Beaumont Bosnia was the scenario, but the Port of Beaumont was the setting for a military deployment exercise called Operation Phantom Lifeline. Some 1,000 soldiers of the 64th Combat Support Group ( CSG) from Fort Hood , Texas, simulated a complete logistics task force departing to Bosnia. They brought along about 325 pieces of military equipment, which traveled to the port by convoy and rail. Once at the port, a mock loading took place on a simulated ship outlined by hatch on a ten-acre all-weather storage lot The mem-
bers of the 64th CSG simulated arrival in Bosnia by transforming the port's Shed #4 into a Tactical Operations Center, food service center and billeting area. The soldiers spent two nights in the port conducting the mock staging, loading and discharge before moving by convoy to Camp Bullis, Texas, their simulated destination.
American Bus Association. ABA's board of directors approved in October the formation of a non-profit ABA foundation to enhance educational opportunities in the motorcoach and travel and tourism industries. The foundation's initial program is the George T. Snyder, Jr., Scholarship Fund, honoring the former ABA president and CEO who died in 19.95. During Marketplace, Hard Rock Cafe International donated $10,000 to the scholarship fund at the Afterglow Reception. The annual Hard Rocksponsored event will become a fund-raiser for the scholarship fund beginning with the 1997 American Bus Marketplace scheduled for Dec 7-12 in Nashville, Tenn.
Battelle. Following years of stagnation, investment in research and development (R&D) in the United States will show a real increase in 199 7, according to the annual Battelle R&D Magazine forecast. R&D expenditures in 1997 are expected to increase to about $192 billion. This is a 4 2 percent increase over the $184 billion that the National Science Foundation estimates to have been spent in 1996. Although total R&D investment stalled in the early 1990s, the anticipated increase in 1997 follows a pattern that Battelle predicted at the beginning of the decade. Furthermore, the increase in 1997 signals the beginning of a trend that will last into the 21st century.

LANDSTAR
In an effort to reduce accidents ·involving passenger cars and large trucks, Landstar Ranger introduced its new "No-Zone" trailer at a rest stop south of Tampa, Florida. The 53 ' trailer, covered in illustrations of a large truck's blind spots, is designed to increase the public ' s awareness of how to drive safely around large trucks. According to DoT, in 70 percent of all crashes involving passenger cars and large trucks, the automobile was cited as the responsible party To give motorists a truck's-eye view of the road, Ranger contractor Larry Wren helped participants climb into the cab of his black 1993 Volvo Conventional to see if they could spot the cars parked in the truck's blind spots . Several participants commented they had no idea where the blind spots are on a large truck.

Secretary of Defense Approves Voluntary lntermodal Sealift Agreement (VI SA)
Defense Secretar y William S. Cohen approved th e Voluntary Intermodal Sealift Agreement (VISA) on January 30, 1997.
The VISA is an int eragency agreement between the DOD and the DOT and represents a new level of cooper a tion between the DOT's Maritime Administration (MARAD), DOD , and U.S. commercial shipping companies to m eet military sealift requir e ments during contingenc y operations. VISA was approved by Secretary Cohen as an alternative to the current DOD Sealift Readiness Program (SRP) .
VISA integrates the capabilities of the U.S. Flag fl ee t to augment the DOD's organic fleet of ships it uses to me et contingencies. Whil e DO D's fleet will primarily be us ed to move combat forces, the VISA capability will be focused on the much needed resupply and ammunition needed by combat forces. The VISA program, which developed from lessons of Desert Shi e ld and Storm, parallels the existing DOD program to integrate civilian aircraft into the Defense Transportation Sy stem (DTS) called C ivil Reserve Air Fleet (CRAF) Implemented during the Gulf War, CRAF added s i gnificantly to the U .S.'s abilit y to move large numbers of troops and deliver high-priority parts and equipment globally. Like CRAF, VISA would be implemented in thre e stages, with the final stage being implemented only during times of gravest national crisis.
The VISA agreement integrates commercial shipping capacity coming from three sources:
1) Vessels enrolled in MARAD's new Maritim e Security Program (MSP) which provides operating assistance to support continued pres ence in international trade of U.S. Flag vessels operated by U.S . merchant mariners ;
2) Ocean carriers transporting military cargo under DOD peacetime contracts; and
3) Other vessels volunteered by shipping companies for sealift contingencies.
VISA offers improved flexibility to meet today's demanding contingency scenarios. The new agreement, nearly two years in development, was reached as a result of close cooperation betw ee n USTRANSCOM, MARAD , and commercial shipping companies. It has also resulted in an ongoing joint executi v e-level mechanism to exchange ideas and ensure understanding of sealift requirements and capabilities among participants. This creates closer working partnership s in peacetime instead of trying to create new arrangements during crisis situations .
The VISA program pro v ides a phased plan for U S carriers o provide th eir capacity to meet varying levels of crisis. The keyston e of VISA is that for the first time, it brings the carriers into the DOD planning process . This enables carriers both to better meet defense transp o rtation needs and to plan for options for their own o p erations to continue ongoing commercial arrangem e nts during contingencies.
One of the objectives of this joint planning is to develop contingency contracts with the v arious carriers that will provide DOD with assured access to their sealift capabilities. In return for their VISA commitment during contingencies, carrie r s will have priority to be aw a rded DOD peacetime contracts to move military cargo within the DTS.
NDTA Employment Referral Program
To place any NDTA member into the program, we need three things from him or her:
1 A copy of a resume for the individual
2 A short summary, not to exceed 75 words, for publication in the Defense Transportation Journal
3 A short employment history/work chronology. This is used to look for specific skills or experiences a prospective employer is seeking, and which may not be apparent from a resume. Does not need to be in detail
If the prospective employee is currently overseas, we need to know when he or she plans to return to the United States, approximate availability date for employment, commercial phone number overseas, and a CONUS address/phone number where prospective employee can be reached upon his/her return to CONUS. Also indicate area (geographic preferences for employment.
We use the resume to look for possible candidates in response to inquiries from prospective employers. If we find a resume generally meeting the qualifications which a prospective is looking for, we provide the employer with the name, phone number, and address of the candidate. We may also contact the candidate for permission to release the resume to the employer.
The summary is published , with a referral number, in the Defense Transportation Journal. Prospective employees reading DTJ contact us through use of the referral number, and we go through the same process outlined above.
We also periodically send a compendium of summaries to our corporate members. Please contact me if you have additional questions.

SCOTT-ST. LOUIS CHAPTER
Many people, even those working in the logistics discipline, have never traveled by rail. On October 26, the Scott-St. Louis Chapter brought railroading "American Style" to 46 people. Organized by the Chapter's A-35 members, the rail trip to Washington, Missouri, was a real crowd pleaser. AMTRAK generously provided discounted fares for the entire group. Leaving AMTRAK's St. Louis station, the one-hour trip passed through the beautiful Missouri foothills, where autumn's bountiful colors were in full display. Dinner was served at Elijah McLean's Restaurant, a restored historical mansion which sits at the edge of the Missouri River in the central part of the state. After our delicious dinner, we boarded the train and returned to St. Louis. Everyone had a terrific time, meeting friends, promoting NDTA to non-members, and raising money for the Chapter Scholarship Fund. Additional details are available from Marshall Mantiply at (616) 256-6839 or DSN 576-6839.

This sixteenth annual survey of logistics software is available in a 908-page soft cover book and contains information on over 1,600 software packages of interest to logistics personnel. Individual data sheets for each software package shows such things as: system name, vendor (complete address and phone number), contact, price, maintenance fee, installations (number and date first installed) , update (frequency and last update), hardware, language, databases, processing mode, code provided, functions provided, comments on what the package includes , what other functions th e package supports, etc., and distinguishing characteristics.
The survey is divided into four subsections (mainframe, minicomputer, microcomputer, and client server) to assist readers in identifying those packages which have the greatest potential for their operation or their company's configuration of management information systems hardware. An introduction to the survey offers several suggestions for evaluating software. In addition to the publication, readers will also receive the Software Selection Aid, the new electronic version of the survey. The Aid contains the same data found in the Logistics software publication with detailed information for system requirements, installation and instructions for its use.
This book is of interest to managers of logistics, managers of logistics information systems, and students of logistics.
General Robert L. Rutherford, An Oral History, Commander-in-Chief United States Transportation Command and Commander Air Mobility Command, conducted by Dr. James K. Matthews, Director, Research Center, USTC, and Mr. Robert T. Cossaboom, Command Historian, AMC Scott Air Force Base, Illinois; October 1996. Copies are available from Transportation Command Research Center, (618) 256-6167.
This history, organized around questions submitted in advance of the interview. It covers a wide range of issues including readiness, recent operations, jointness, reserve forces and the integration of the three transportation modes: air, land, and sea. His answers to the questions are candid , illuminating, and provocative . I believe that this oral history should prove to be of great interest to defense transportation operators and planners. It is a valuable reference for government and business decision makers in the transportation arena and those concerned with strategic mobility. It is an important primary source for academic and government historians.
