On March 5th SSgt. Ken Russell sent us his farewell from Incirlik. He has been one of the most consistent contributors to this column, and he has successfully helped build a very active chapter in Hodja. He's now off to Okinawa, so I expect to start hearing a lot from that chapter soon. I've already received greetings from his replacement at Hodja, SRA Parmer, and I look forward to the continuation of great activities by the A35ers for all the members.

SSgt. Russell's last submission includes information about his chapter luncheon's guest speaker from the American Red Cross, Ms. Elizabeth Stapleton, and also about the introduction of newly elected A-35 Chair SRA Parmer. In March the chapter had a skeet shoot and will be sponsoring a golf tournament in April. Good luck, Ken, and please stay in touch.

The Scott-St. Louis chapter is working on a full week's worth of activities for Transportation Week, with a full day and a half scheduled for A35 activities. Included are tours, workshops, guest speakers, and panel discussion. I hope to give you a lot of feedback regarding these activities in the next column.

I want to take a moment here to restate and emphasize the purpose of the A-35 program. We want to encourage young professionals to join NDTA and actively participate in chapter and national NDTA affairs. The A-35 program benefits our chapters and the NDTA as a whole by providing for future NDT A leaders at the chapter, region, and national levels. For the

young professionals, A-35 provides them with the opportunity to broaden their professional knowledge, hone their communications skills and develop their leadership skills through serving on committees or taking on officer roles. The program also provides an opportunity for networking with fellow professionals.

Young transportation professionals throughout the industry and government sectors have a real opportunity here. It is up to you to take advantage of it. By taking an active role in your chapters and regions, you not only develop your own skills but make NDT A a much stronger organization. Be creative and develop activities that appeal to and include the entire chapter, and have fun. And don't forget to let me know what you're doing!

Intermodal Transportation

Nothing intrigues me more than an article title such as this one appearing in the March 1999 issue of Inbound Logistics "Everything Intermodal is New Again" by Marcia Jedd. Why so you may ask. Maybe its my age or my experiences which make me wonder about the word, everything, followed by a subject which has been around almost continuously since World War II and probably since the beginning of animals and water craft. e.g. How did Hannibal get the elephants to the Alps? Right quickly, I begin to try to discover what is new. Of course, you must read such articles because maybe there is something new. Intermodal transportation has been and continues to be reported both favorably and unfavorably in the transportation press. e.g. In the April issue of the American Shipper an article titled "Hard Times for European Intermodal" written by Henrik Baasch outlines existing problems in Europe.

I have always maintained that the goal of intermodal transportation operations has to be the offer of an improved transportation service which permits producers to lower the total logistics cost of providing the product to the user. I believe the improvements to our transportation infrastructure, the increase in the use of improved logistics information systems, the development and use of the full service logistics companies, the development and use of non-asset-based companies and the development of supply chain planning processes are contributing factors in the increased use of intermodal transportation. I continue to believe the economic benefits of using intermodal transportation systems will increase the use of the system. What economic benefits are necessary for this to occur? Improved intermodal transportation services should provide shippers with shorter transit times and lower packaging, handling and claims cost. This requires the provision of a quality service even though more than one mode of transportation is used. Quality Service includes on time and safe delivery at lower rates than the use of a single mode of transportation would provide. Many changes have occurred in our transportation systems including transportation companies, domestic containerization stack trains, articulated rail cars, bi-modal trailers, just-in-time inventory services, the availability and capability of information processing services.

Shippers will judge the success of intermodalism by its ability to lower the producers total supply chain cost through a reduction in transit times, lower claims, less documentation, more accurate information about shipment status, reduced inventory and lower rates. The use of seamless logistics systems and electronic data interchanges permit the economic benefits of intermodal transportation operations to be gained. The producer can deal with one

entity and can track the shipment without regard to which carrier is moving their products. The use of reliable and accurate required delivery dates will allow intermodal operations to become an essential element in the nation's transportation system.

It appears to me that the truly new things about the use of intermodal transportation are the wise people who are realizing the benefits of the system . Both carriers and shippers seem to be willing to cooperate to gain the benefits of the use of intermodal transportation services. The developments of partnerships in the supply chain are providing economic benefits for all members of the chain and the ultimate consumer. Cooperation is the key to the success and the growing use of our intermodal transportation systems. It has already developed changes in the size and types of containers to be used by both rail and motor carriers. The willingness to change is the required ingredient to continued improvements in the intermodal transportation system.

Global economics will continue to pressure cooperation between carrier and shipper and to use intermodal transportation operations. The favorable economics of using the intermodal transportation system are being proven every day. Mutual benefits occurring to all members of the supply chain will drive the increased use of intermodal transportation to move products to the consumer. An efficient transportation system is essential to provide the logistical support to meet the nation's economic development and national security needs.

President

Does 1999 appear to be moving fast to you? I have the same feeling as we race against the clock to structure and introduce new programs and plans for our 54th Transportation Logistics Forum and Exposition in Anchorage, AK.

The purpose of this issue of DTJ is to provide information on the military, government and logistics agencies, our corporate members and leadership of NTDA on the national, regional, state, and chapter levels. Many websites have been added this year to increase the usefulness of the publication. I believe you will find this Almanac edition to be an invaluable reference that will assist you in your professional endeavors.

BG Charles Edmiston, a long-time friend and member of NDTA, has resigned from our National Board of Directors as the Vice President for Chapter and Membership Development. However, I would hasten to tell you that he did much more than that for the Association by volunteering to assist me in many areas. I will truly miss his candid advice and counsel. The Chairman of the Board, NDTA has appointed Ron Conardy, President of Transportation Management Training, to complete Chuck's unexpired term. Ron is also a long-time member and worker in NDTA. He has been our top recruiter in the Association for the past four years. I welcome Ron to the Board and we all look forward to working with him. Our Chairman of the Board also recently appointed Mark Shafer, currently our State Vice President for Northern California, to complete the unexpired term of Charles Madison, Regional President-Pacific Southwestern Region. I wish to pub-

licly thank Charlie for his dedicated service and I look forward to working with him at his new location in Anchorage, AK.

Our February DTJ contained information on making hotel reservations for our Forum in Anchorage. I would encourage you to make them early. We also announced that Northwest Airlines and Dollar Rent a Car would be our official airline and car rental companies for the Forum. Both of these companies have supported our programs for many years. For your planning purposes, we will publish information about pre and post forum activities. There is a lot to see and do in Alaska, so don't miss the opportunity.

The membership renewal invoices that you will receive on or about 1 May will permit the use of credit cards (American Express, MasterCard and Visa). New membership applications will also be distributed in time for use on 1 May 99. In addition, your forum registration and exhibit booth space can be charged on one of these credit cards.

I wish to compliment MG Montero and his MTMC team for another superb Symposium in Denver during the month of March and I extend my congratulations to all of the companies who received the MTMC Quality Awards. Four NDTA members: Dollar Rent A Car, Emery Worldwide, a CNF Company, Omega World Travel, Inc., and Southwest Airlines were among the recipients-a sp ecial congratulations to them. I wish to thank the companies who provided sponsorship and exhibited with us at the MTMC Symposium. I hope that you will participate with us in Norfolk at the Navy Symposium 6-9 July, and this fall in Anchorage.

In closing, I wish to thank our new corporate members for their confidence in our work. I encourage you to become involved and participate in our work for Defense Transportation Preparedness. DTJ

Ms. Marian Unterman, DLA ••u area codes above are 703

On behalf 0£ the Secretary of Defense, the Assistant Deputy Under Secretary of Defense for Transportation Poticy (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 qualify oflife."

To ensure a 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 by

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 Traffic Management Command (MTMC) and Military Sealift Command (MSC).

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. CRAF forces are mobilized in three stages that allow for tailoring an airlift force suitable for the contingency at hand. Stage I is used for minor regional crises; Stage II is used for major regional contingencies; and Stage III is used for periods of national mobilization. In return for their participation in the CRAF program, carriers receive preference for DoD's peacetime passenger and cargo business. By participating in CRAF, the carriers are also guaranteed that the burden of a deployment will be spread fairly among all participants.

Calling up Stage I aircraft provides DoD with access to about 9 percent of the passenger capacity in the long-range U.S. commercial fleet and 13 percent of the cargo capacity. With the addition of Stage II aircraft, those figures rise to 28 percent and 32 percent, respectively. Aircraft from Stage III bring the CRAF contribution, as a share of total U.S. longrange commercial aircraft capacity, to 53 percent for passengers and 75 percent for cargo.

The NDTA Military Airlift Committee has provided an excellent forum for facilitating dialogue between the air carrier industry and DoD. Following the first-ever 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 contracts to CRAF participants; (2) making CRAF participation a prerequisite for General Services Administration passenger and domestic express small package airlift contracts valued at $1.3 billion; (3) Congressional approval of legislation authorizing the Secretary of Defense to use Defense appropriations to pay aviation war risk insurance claims in a timely manner; and (4) Congressional approval of legislation allowing CRAP carriers to use military airfields. Continuous dialogue and annual contracts with CRAP participants ensure the CRAF program is responsive to changing conditions while assuring access to the airlift capability essential to preserve our national interests.

Sealift

Sealift capacity comes from: ships operating in commercial trade, commercial ships under long-term charter to the DoD, government-owned Surge ships maintained by MSC in a fast response breakout status and Ready Reserve Force (Surge) ships maintained in reserve status by MARAD. These vessels provide three primary types of capacity: 1) container capacity, primarily for moving supplies (food, parts, consumables, and ammunition); 2) Roll-On-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 191 ships with military utility. These include 101 dry cargo ships, 1999 ALMANAC

88 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 CRAP-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. The Maritime Security Act (MSA) of 1996 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 165 vessels that could contribute to military missions-65 dry cargo ships, 85 tankers, and 15 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 9 dry cargo ships and 8 tankers from the commercial operators to transport military cargoes to locations not accessible by regular commercial service. Additionally, MSC has 5 Ready Reserve Force (RRF) ships, 22 chartered ships, and 4 DoD-owned ships 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 con-" tainer ships may take too long and may still not permit the ships to offfload 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, MSC maintains nine ships in the Surge fleet. Eight are Fast Sealift Ships (highspeed RO/ROs) bought during the early 1980s and maintained by MSC with partial crews so they can be ready to sail in four days. MSC also maintains one Large Medium Speed RORO (LMSR) in this fleet and is in the process of accepting delivery of ten additional ships of this class. The government also maintains a fleet of 91 dry cargo ships, 8 tankers, and 2 passenger ships in reserve status for use in military operations.

• Two are aviation support ships-floating Marine Corps maintenance depots-capable of full operation in five days.

• The remaining 89 are dry cargo ships, tankers, and 2 passenger ships in the RRF.

• In addition MSC manages two hospital ships capable of full operation in five days.

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 earlydeploying 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. 1 billion in ship construction funds to complete the LMSR program.

Transportation

Transportation is a primary function of the DoD logistics system. During FY 98, DoD's worldwide transportation pro-

gram exceeded $8 billion. The program supports the acquisition of transportation services and the maintenance of transportation infrastructure 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 ex tensive intermodal capabilities.

Management Reform Memorandum (MRM #15) directed the reengineering of the Defense transportation documentation and financial processes. In February of 1998, the Deputy Secretary of Defense directed Surface/ Express, Airlift, and Sealift Prototypes be conducted to test the "to be" concept for improving transportation documentation and financial processes The prototypes tested a purchase card process, and US Bank's PowerTrackSM system, to procure and pay for transportation. The results of the prototypes and recommendations were presented to the Deputy Secretary of Defense (DEPSECDEF) on February 4, 1999.

Based on MRM #15 analysis and prototype results, the Deputy Secretary of Defense has directed implementation of the following significant changes in the Defense documentation and financial processes:

• Eliminate government-unique documentation for transportation movement (Government Bills of Lading for freight movements and the military manifest for commercial sealift liner movements).

• Use US Bank's PowerTrack service to pay for transportation services. Further efforts to encourage carriers to submit electronic invoices to the Defense Finance and Accounting Service Defense Transportation Payment System will not be expanded.

• Eliminate unnecessary DoD-unique data elements from transportation transactions.

• Conduct a prototype to assess the ability of Third Party Logistics Providers to meet Defense transportation requirements.

The DEPSECDEF has approved the phased implementation of the MRM #15 recommendations over the next two years and directed that all system and process changes to implement MRM #15 be given the highest priority, with the exception of Year 2000 modifications.

The DoD issued a Transportation Acquisition Policy for the first time in January 1998. The Transportation Acquisition Policy achieves a balance between our acquisition reform and readiness goals, enabling the DoD to reap the benefits of a flexible, efficient acquisition process, while simultaneously enhancing transportation readiness. It will improve the quality of transportation services provided to the DoD, enhance transportation readiness, and reduce administrative costs by streamlining and bring consistency to the varied transportation acquisition processes already in place. The policy requires the use of best-commercial practices and best value evaluation procedures when acquiring transportation services. It basically requires that commercial transportation providers under direct contract to the DoD commit to support DoD contingency requirements through participation in the Civil Reserve Air Fleet (CRAF) and Voluntary Intermodal Sealift Agreement (VISA) programs, as a condition for receiving DoD business. Finally, it requires that carriers use Electronic Commerce/ Electronic Data Interchange and provide In-Transit Visibility data to DoD.

DoD's expanded use of the Automatic Identification Technology (AIT) continues to be a priority. AIT is a suite of technologies, including bar codes, optical memory cards, smart cards, radio frequency devices and a satellite tracking capability that allow the automatic capturing of data for manage-

ment information systems. The use of AIT greatly improves the Department of Defense's logistics business processes and enhances its warfighting capability by enabling and facilitating data collection and transmission to Automated Information Systems (AISs).

DoD tested the use of a suite of technologies in the EUCOM theater during 1998. These technologies were used in conjunction with TC-AIMS II Beta version to re-deploy forces- from Bosnia in May through June of 1998. Based on the results of the prototype, the appropriate AIT will be fielded to support a baseline backbone in PACOM and CECOM over the next 2 years.

In addition to freight , the Defense Department moves hundreds of thousands of military and civilian personnel and their families every year at a cost of nearly 1.2 billion dollars. Despite the fact that the DoD moves more people than any United States corporation, the system we have created to do so lags far behind any used by the private sector. Under the DoD system, the burden for these moves is placed on our personnel rather than on the government that is requiring them to move in the first place. Moreover, a process where contracts are awarded to the "lowest bidder" has often led to the most inadequate service for those who deserve it the least.

Moreover, the DoD is actively pursuing a number of pilot programs that attempt to infuse DoD moving procedures with the best industry practices. These programs include: The selection of moving companies based on "best value" rather than lowest cost; Service member-arranged moves that allow the Service member to select their own mover and cause the government to pay the moving company directly using a purchase card; and a commercial relocation service that entails outsourcing the entire "household goods shipment process" to a commercial third party company in order to adopt industry best practices. Although different in approach, these initiatives are grounded in a common principle to which DoD is dedicated-military families deserve the same quality moving services enjoyed by their civilian neighbors.

Travel

This has been a monumental year in our efforts to reengineer our temporary duty travel (TDY) processes. The first Defense Travel System contract, valued at $264 million, was awarded on May 7, 1998 to TRW. The contract includes a worldwide Common User Interface system, capability, and travel services for Defense Travel Region 6 - which includes eleven upper midwestern states. The system is undergoing acceptance testing and is scheduled for implementation this summer.

Transportation Management Professional Enhancement (PEP) Program

The 12-month DoD Transportation Management Professional Enhancement Program, sponsored by the ADUSD(TP), is designed for transportation professionals that have the potential to meet high-level management positions. Participants representing the Military Services and Defense Agencies receive unique rotational assignments with DoD and transportation organizations that include the Defense Logistics Agency, the United States Transportation Command and its components, and the Military Departments. Nominations are submitted via their respective Service chiefs where selection is made. The program runs annually from July to July.

WELCOME TO THE DOLLAR RENT A CAR TRAVEL UPDATE

This page is intended to keep you informed about changes in the travel industry and especially its impact on government travel.

HAVE YOU HEARD THE GOOD NEWS?

Dollar Rent A Car received the MTMC Quality Award! Dollar is very proud to be the first car rental company to receive this prestigious award. The Director of Transportation for the U.S. Navy nominated Dollar for our long term dedication to providing a high level of service to government travelers. We were also recognized for our perforn1ance on a new method of contracting large numbers of rental vehicles. Our company appreciates the recognition and will continue to provide quality service, competitive pricing, and new, innovative services and products.

HAVE YOU EVER WONDERED HOW CAR RENTAL PRICES ARE SET?

You know about supply and demand. Pricing is determined by demand-generally, the greater the demand, the higher the price of the product. Airlines, hotels, and rental cars are no different. The car rental industry learned about revenue and yield management from the airlines.

Most large travel suppliers have teams of analysts in a Revenue Management department who are responsible for making sure they have the right " mix " of business - retail, corporate, government, association, tour, meetings and conventions, etc -and that each segment is priced to attract the volume of business that fills their capacity at the most profitable rate.

Government travelers get the benefit of contracts and agreements , negotiated with the travel industry for preferential pricing and services. The airline city pair contract is the most rigid and best known of these programs. Not only does the government demand special pricing, but other benefits are included.

For instance, MTMC administers the U.S. Government Car Rental Agreement for all government agencies, military and civilian. Each car rental company files their "maximum" rate by car type, and then can fluctuate their rates as needed , as long as they do not exceed the filed maximum rates. Often, lower rates are available when reservations are made well in advance of your travel date. But, as the travel date gets closer and capacity decreases, the price can go up.

We strongly recommend that you contact your designated travel agency to make reservations as soon as you know your travel requirements. This is true for official as well as leisure travel.

NDTAFORUM

It won't be long before we'll be gathering in Anchorage for the NDTA Forum. Dollar is again proud to the Official Car Rental Company for the Forum. Did you know that every time you rent a car from Dollar and use the NDTA rate, you help support the NDTA Scholarship Fund? That's because we return a portion of your rental fee back to NDTA. Just provide the NDTA Customer Discount Number NDOOOl when making your reservation and NDTA scholars benefit. Reservations can be made by your professional travel agent, by calling our 24-hour toll-free reservation center at 1-800-800-4000 or by visiting our website at www.dollar.com.

e Defense Logistics Agency provides comprehen1ve logistics combat support to America's warfightrs "Around the Clock, Around the World." It takes arge-scale logistics to defend America's interests and commitments around the world. DLA professionals work quietly behind the scenes every day, helping to put equipment, weapons systems, services, and supplies wherever they are needed by America's warfighters, anywhere in the world and at the lowest possible cost.

With more than 4.1 million DLA-managed items and servi?g customers in most countries of the world, it is imperative that DLA meet a variety of logistics requirements. DLA provides supply and distribution support, contract administration services, and technical and logistics services to the

DL~ accomplishes its mission primarily through two or! mzatwns-The Defense Logistics Support Cornman responsible for materiel management , and the Defer Contract Management Command, responsible for acqui tion management.

. DLA's Defense Logistics Support Command, or DLSC, p1 vides American warfighters with the logistics support th n:ed to fulJ'.ill !heir ~perational mission. The command p1 v1des Amen ca s service men and women the basic hardw, and repair parts to keep weapon systems combat ready. Th outfit military personnel with the clothing, subsistence ai medical support to keep them able bodied and w equipped. DLSC provides the massive energy and fuel nee for forces at their installations and on the move. The co1 mand also provides the full range of logistics services: caloging and logistics information, reutilization and dispo:

of equipment and supplies, storage and packaging services ... and specialized support like lab testing, as well as hazardous materiel disposal.

DLSC has established two weapon systems inventory control points, the Defense Supply Center, Columbus and the Defense Supply Center, Richmond. The Defense Supply Center, Columbus was designated as the lead center for land and maritime systems. Defense Supply Center, Richmond was designated as the air, aviation and space supply center. A general troop supply center is located at the Defense Supply Center, Philadelphia. The Defense Energy Support Center, formerly known as the Defense Fuel Supply Center, provides all forms of facility and mobility energy support.

The distribution function of DLSC is managed by the Defense Distribution Center. The DDC provides distribution management support for the distribution depots located throughout the United States and in Europe. The network of depots manages and stores over 5 million items under 618 million cubic feet of storage space. The depots make more than 25.2 million receipts and issues annually. They are strategically located to take full advantage of the existing transportation, including rail lines, airports and highways.

DLSC also manages other Department of Defense logistics services programs, the Defense Logistics Information Service, the Defense National Stockpile Center and the Defense Reutilization and Marketing Service.

Besides managing its own contracts, DLA also manages contracts awarded by the military services, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, other federal Agencies and certain foreign governments.

DLA's Defense Contract Management Command is responsible for assuring that procured material is of satisfactory quality and delivered when and where the customer requires it. DCMC successfully manages more than 366,000 prime contracts worth in excess of $920 billion, using over 23,000 contractors. DCMC provides customerfocused contract management services throughout the acquisition lifecycle. The DCMC Contract Administration Offices, managed by the DCMC Districts, are located throughout the United States and the world, and provide valuable transportation services within a geographic area and within contractors' plants. DLA is especially attentive to the customer satisfaction level.

New emphasis is being placed on adapting its approach to customers to ensure they receive the tailored support they need. By providing effective , reliable, agile support, DLA can best sustain the military services' focused logistics. These programs include the Army's Velocity Management, the Navy's One-Touch Supply, and the Air Force's Lean Logistics, and the Marine Corps' Precision Logistics. DLA is moving closer to the customer in peacetime as well in order to provide optimal support and combat readiness.

PowerTrack

PowerTrack is a freight transportation payment system offered by U.S. Bank under the current International Merchant Purchase Authorization Card (IMPAC) contract. This payment system links the shipper, carrier, and U.S. Bank in a seamless payment system that accelerates the payment to the carrier while simplifying the invoicing and payment functions for the Government. Most of the DLA distribution depots and some of the DCMC Contract Administration Offices use the PowerTrack system Several motor and airfreight carriers participate; DLA plans to expand the use of PowerTrack with all major carriers.

Guaranteed Traffic (GT)/Optimum Benefit Negotiation (OBN) Program

DLA partnered with the Military Traffic Management Command (MTMC) on the Guaranteed Traffic (GT)/Optimum Benefit Negotiation (OBN) Program, a competitive, bid-based traffic award program. Commercial carriers are evaluated on price (the rate submitted by a carrier) and on technical elements (carrier services provided, carrier past performance and carrier managerial capabilities). The GT/OBN traffic awards cover a specific period of time, from a DLA depot or a DoD contractor facility, to a grouping of states, point, or by round trip movements. The GT/OBN review allows active participation by the DLA transportation officer and gathers information from a variety of sources. Two evaluation teams are used: one from the DLA facility /depot and a second from the Joint Traffic Management Office at MTMC.

The program has seen significant growth the past year, with five GT/OBN awards made from DLA sites in San Diego, San Joaquin, CA; Seattle; Anniston, WA; and Oshkosh, WS. A delay in the full implementation of GT/OBN occurred due to required improvements as a result of the Management Reform Memorandum No. 15 initiative. The use of the PowerTrack software solution under the GT/OBN Program will allow for a smooth transportation implementation.

Premium Service

Premium Service is a DLA program that uses the latest in commercial practices to significantly reduce order-ship time, thus allowing a reduction of both wholesale and retail stocks. Customers store critical, mission-essential items in a centralized contractor-owned, contractor-operated facility in Memphis, TN. The contractor provides guaranteed direct door-to-door delivery within 24 hours in the continental United States and 48 hours outside the continental United States. Premium Service is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

Prime Vendor

Prime Vendor uses a single distributor for commercial suppliers to 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 can obtain some economies of scale, which are then passed on to the customer. The Prime Vendor program is being expanded to include containerized shipments to overseas locations, such as subsistence shipments to Europe. The subsistence Prime Vendor has been expanded to include Japan, Okinawa, Guam, Japan and Hawaii. The agency expects to add Korea no later than the fourth quarter of fiscal year 1999.

Automatic Identification Technology (Alij Lead Organization

DLA was appointed the lead organization for directing and executing the DoD Automatic Identification Technology Concept of Operations and Implementation Plan and for managing the AIT Operational Prototypes. AIT is a suite of technologies that enables the automatic capture of source data, thereby enhancing the ability to identify, track, document, and control deploying and rede-

ploying forces, equipment, personnel and sustainment cargo. DLA, as the lead organization for AIT, is responsible to the Deputy Under Secretary of Defense for Logistics and the Director for Logistics 0-4), Joint Staff , with oversight by the AIT Principals (deputy commander-in-chief U.S. Transportation Command and Service Logistics Chiefs). The Army retains the responsibility as the Executive Agent for AIT procurement.

Direct Vendor Delivery Barcoding

The DoD AIT Concept of Operations provides that bar codes will be used to collect initial source data for all items moving throughout the DoD. Bar codes eliminate the need for keystrokes or other manual means to input source data. The baseline requirement is the linear bar code, with a gradual transition to two-dimensional bar codes Twodimensional bar codes contain considerably more storage capacity-1,850 characters-and have a redundancy feature that enhances readability. DLA depots under the Defense Distribution Standard System (DSS) all utilize linear bar codes on Department of Defense Form 1348-IA, Issue Release/Receipt Document and on Military Shipping Labels.

Three DLA depots are currently prototyping two-dimensional bar codes. DLA recently instituted a policy requiring DLA contractors (vendors) making shipments directly to DoD activities to provide linear bar coded shipment information similar to that provided by our depots on the DD Form 1348-IA This requirement was developed with participation and direct input from all of the Services. The goal is to enhance the speed and accuracy of receiving activities, thereby achieving manpower and inventory savings. By mimicking the DD Form 1348-IA data elements, no changes to Military Service Automated Information Systems will be necessary.

The policy, however, does allow contracting officials to consider costs to meet this requirement. Subsequent to the EUCOM AIT Operational Prototype that is currently being evaluated, a newly formatted shipping label containing both linear and two-dimensional bar codes will be finalized. This label will become the basis for both depot and direct vendor deliveries. Contractual modifications and amendments will be necessary on the part of DLA and Military Service Inventory Control Points to require contractors and vendors to bar code the predetermined data elements. To facilitate conformance, options are being considered to publicize the data elements, label formats ~ nd bar coding on the worldwide web and embed the formats in the CONUS Freight Management System (CFM). This flexibility will allow prudent procurement practices, in concert with defined Service requirements , to achieve the best valu~ for DLA and our customers.

"Dedicated Truck

Dedicated truck is a service in which a truck is committed to a specific customer or a route composed of several customers. Because the truck is dedicated to a customer or route, services can be tailored to meet the customer's requirements to a degree not possible with ad hoc transportation arrangements. Examples of tailored services are compressed transit times, scheduled deliveries , split deliveries, and flexible schedules.

Direct Express Delivery

This initiative gives customers reliable door-to-door delivery from defense depots using commercial express small package air carriers. Traditionally these stocks moved

by surface or organic air assets. This new innovative service dramatically reduces transit times. This reduction in transit time, when coupled with superior service reliability, allows customers to gain substantial inventory savings

Medical Air Express (MEDEX) and Commercial Air Lines of Communication (COMALOC)

MEDEX and 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 par ts 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-to-door delivery within four business days

NAVXPRESS

A local delivery system, using organic or commercial assets, NAVXPRESS is derived from the DLA/Navy partnership in distribution. It is a reimbursable material movement network within a defined geographical area supported by an automated system, which provides asset visibility and tracking. NAVXPRESS provides central receiving and delivery services to, from, and between activities in the supported area Before the emergence of the partnership effort, local delivery in many areas was a blend of many stovepipe organizations providing their own receiving and transportation. Deployment of NAVXPRESS with reduction of underused capacity and elimination of duplicate services allowed substantial savings in local delivery costs.

United States Air Force, United Transportation Command, and DLA Carrier Consortium States Express

This is a reinvention laboratory and partnership between DLA, USTRANSCOM, and the U.S. Air Force that has worked state-of-the-art business practices for over three 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. The focus is on those initiatives that will enhance Door-to-Door Distribution and Lean Logistics concept, that is, those items/forces requiring express delivery services. Notably, the lab's Mail-Like Matter Movement initiative that moves classified and sensitive materiel by commercial express means was a recipient of the prestigious "Hammer Award" presented by Vice President Gore's National Performance Review team.

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, the agency functions more like a broker, managing information . The new approach has allowed the agency to improve the quality of service it provides to America's warfighters with a reduced burden on America 's taxpayers . This outlook supports DLA as one of the most customer-oriented organizations in the federal government. DLA strives to keep our forces ready for war and peace and looks forward to supporting them "Around the Clock, Around the World," and into the future DTJ

e United States Transportation Command USTRANSCOM) is the single manager of defense ommon-user transportation. With its transporta10n 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 maintains a defense transportation system (DTS) ready and capable to meet the nation's needs.

In the past year USTRANSCOM has been busy. In any week the command oversees about 1300 airlift missions, 300 ~ajor unit movements, and 24 ships carrying U.S. military cargo to support forward deployed forces, on exercises, or in support of contingency missions around the globe. In 1998 the command supported Operations Desert Thunder I & II and Resolute Response (following the bombings of American embassies in east Africa) and relief operations in the wake of Typhoon Paka, the northeast ice storms, Florida wildfires, and Hurricanes Georges and Mitch.

The strength of USTRANSCOM and its component commands is people-soldiers, sailors, airmen, Marines, active duty, guard, reserve-dedicated civilians and, just as ~ml?ortan t, industry partners. The success of every m1s~1?n depends on each of these links in the global mob1hty chain-there's no other way to do business.

Although no other nation or corporation could fulfill USTRANSCOM's mission of providing timely, customerfocused global mobility in peace and war through efficient, effective, and integrated transportation from origin to destination the command must not become complacent. It must always look ahead and continually improve as a military transportation organization. Since arriving in July, U.S. Air Force General Charles T. Robertson Jr., USTRANSCOM's Commander-in-Chief, has focused the command's attention on three themes -readiness, force modernization and process Improvement-and a continuing and dedicated focus on the needs of the command's people and their fami-

lies. Achievement in these areas, says General Robertson, spells success or failure of global mobility in the 21st century.

Readiness

Readiness must and will continue to be the command's primary focus. It must be ready to support the warfighting Ci Cs in the accomplishment of their core missions.

USTRANSCOM's job, simply put, is to make them successful in the accomplishment of theirs. To that end, USTRANSCOM must

Maj Gen Charles H. Coolidge Director, Operations and Logistics (TCJ3/J4) (618) 256-3821

continue to maintain both the ability to support the requirements of the national defense _strategy, ~s well a~ to maintain the ability to support the dally peacetime reqmrements of our customers around the world.

The national defense strategy calls for America's military forces to be prepared o fight two nearly simultaneous Major Theater Wars (MTW). Yet USTRANSCOM is sourced to support only one MTW. Only by maintain~ng its readine_ss through detailed plamning, constant overview of global missions through state-0f-the-art communications, comm~nd and control systems, and agile responses to ever-changmg situations, can USTRANSCOM be ready to support America's military forces anyti e, anywhere.

M d mza •o n Process Improvement

The command's second theme concerns force modernization and process improvement. Readiness is hollow unless it is backed up by good equipment and proven processes that gain the most effect from our forces. The comm~~d h_as made tremendous pmgress in recent years modermzmg its forces, as well as fine-tuning its processes.

LTG Roger G. Thompson, Jr., USA Deputy Commander-in-Chief (618) 256-2478

The new C-17 Globemaster III cargo aircraft has become AMC's core airlifter for direct delivery and strategic airlift. Though few in number-the Air Force had accepted delivery of 46 C-17 aircraft in early 1999-it has become recognized by people worldwide as it supports U.S. military deployments and humanitarian missions around the globe. The last six of the originally planned 120 C-17 aircraft will be delivered in FY04. The Air Force has requested an additional 14 C-17s in its FY 00 budget to support special operations.

Upgrading the aging C-5 Galaxy is key to meeting strategic airlift requirements. Reliability, maintainability and availability of the venerable aircraft have fallen drastically in recent years. To correct these shortcomings, and to restore the C-5 to its full support role, AMC has developed a comprehensive plan that covers three major modernization programs-new high-pressure turbine engines, avionics modernization to meet Global Air Traffic Management (GATM) requirements, and re-engineering and other reliability improvements.

Other aircraft-KC-135 Stratotanker and C-130 Hercules -will undergo similar modernizations. Updates in the cockpit avionics of the KC- 135 will eliminate or reduce the need for a navigator aboard the aircraft, and will add traffic collision and avoidance systems and altitude alerting systems.

The C-130 fleet faces several obstacles. About 150 aircraft will reach the end of their service life by the year 2020; the range of 20 models and variations is becoming obsolete and is getting more and more expensive to repair, and the aircraft does not comply with GATM and other navigation and safety requirements. Recommended fixes include acquisition of 150 C130J-30s to replace those aircraft with the worst structural problems, and modifying the remaining aircraft to a common C-1 30X model.

Modernization goes beyond aircraft-in the past year the command took delivery of the first of more than 300 Tunner aircraft loaders. This new-design loader, with a 60,000pound cargo capacity, can handle all cargo types, will work with all aircraft, and is air transportable. Complementing the Tunner will be Next Generation Small Loader. It will have a capacity of 18,000 pounds and will be deployable on a C-130.

Historically, more than 90% of military cargo has been transported to conflict regions by sea. USTRANSCOM's sealift capability was expanded greatly during the past year with the delivery to MSC of several Large, Medium-Speed Roll-on/Roll-off ships (LMSRs). The last of five converted cargo ships was delivered in FY 98, and the first two of 14 new construction ships have followed. Four of the converted ships already have been loaded with Army prepositioning cargo.

The command is working with the Maritime Administration to improve RO/RO ships in MARAD's Ready Reserve Force (RRF). These ships, essential elements in the nation's surge sealift capability, are undergoing an expansion program that will add more than 200,000 square feet of capacity to the fleet.

The integration of USTRANSCOM's modernization efforts with the continued improvement of its core transportation processes will be key to preparing the command for the 21st century. From dealing with the command's customers in the Defense Transportation System to fine-tuning its in-transit visibility capability, USTRANSCOM has been working to make the DTS efficient and responsive.

This effort has not gone unnoticed. In 1998, the Secretary of Defense named USCinNCTRANS as the first "Reinvention CinC" for the command's work in submitting some of the

best and most innovative ideas for streamlining and improving processes throughout the Department of Defense. These Defense Reform Initiative Directives (DRIDs) resulted from discussions with DTS customers and commercial transportation partners and comparisons of the cost• effectiveness of defense transportation with that of commercial services. They comprise a variety of recommendations from a separate working capital fund for USTRANSCOM to a streamlined process for tailoring transportation rates charged to DTS customers.

USTRANSCOM continued to improve its Global Transportation Network (GTN), the premier command and control system for the command-and the DTS -in 1998. This year GTN began providing DTS customers the ability to track cargo carried by 21 commercial carriers. The first three carriers to provide this interface with GTN were Federal Express, CSX Transportation and Sea-Land Service. Now GTN provides an unprecedented level of in-transit visibility of military cargo moving through both the military and commercial shipping systems.

Similarly, the TRANSCOM Regulating and Command and Control Evacuation System (TRAC'ES) for support of global patient scheduling and movement graduated from a prototype to full-scale development with initial operating capability projected for July 2000. Full operational capability is projected for May 2002. This system will provide an ability, previously unknown, to provide timely, uninterrupted transportation of patients from overseas locations to hospitals and treatment facilities in the United States and certain locations in Europe and the Pacific.

USTRANSCOM's Business Center, which began in 1997, continued to work daily through 1998, to leverage commercial partnerships, to seek economies and efficiencies through outsourcing and privatization, and to employ agile metrics. The center's Customer Support Team serves as advocate for the command's customers and works to better identify their needs. The Pricing and Rates Team manages the Cost Driver Program; the Assessment and Standards Team measures the performance of the DTS and assesses the impact of new products and services; and the Business Practices Team strives to identify new business and reengineering opportunities for the DTS.

USTRANSCOM has introduced several other innovations to improve the deployment process for America's military. The Joint Deployment Training Center, which completed its first year of operation in 1998, works with the military services and CinCs to develop joint doctrine on deployment and redeployment, standardized instruction, exportable training and distance learning, and selected in-resident and mobile training for unit-level deployment managers.

Also during the past year, USTRANSCOM began development of a Munitions Carriers Readiness Program to provide assured access to commercial munitions carriers in peace and war. USTRANSCOM worked with representatives of the Army's Military Traffic Management Command and Industrial Operations Command, Naval Ordnance Center and commercial transportation companies.

In recognition of its efforts toward efficiency and customer service, USTRANSCOM's Joint Intelligence Center OICTRANS) was awarded the National Intelligence Meritorious Unit Citation. JICTRANS was singled out from a field that included intelligence organizations in the Department of Defense, Central Intelligence Agency, Federal Bureau of Investigation and the State Department.

Similarly, USTRANSCOM's computer network security team won the Frank B. Rowlett Award for organizational

achievement in information systems security in 1998. A panel of National Security Agency judges named the USTRANSC0M team the best of a field that included finalists from United States Air Forces in Europe and United States European Command. The team provides network security for USTRANSC0M, and in turn, USTRANSC0M's part of the Defense Transportation System.

Looking ahead, USTRANSC0M already has begun testing and checking its computer equipment and software for Y2K compliance. Equipment testing and evaluation of the command's systems and processes within the DTS will continue throughout the year in a series of exercises and operation evaluations as part of the Department of Defense Y2K Program.

Vear of the Family

The Cine's third theme is-in his view the most critical to USTRANSC0M's continued warfighting and peacetime readiness excellence-a continuing and dedicated focus on the needs of the command's people and their families. The

year 1999 is The Year Of The Family in USTRANSC0M and AMC.

The command is working to curb the impacts of high 0VfEMP0 and mission turbulence on the command's people and their families. At the same time, everyone from local commanders, to the CinC, to our elected members of Congress are continuing to work to provide an adequate .standard of living and quality of life, everything from comparable pay and retirement benefits to safe and affordable housing, from quality household goods movement to quality medical care . It is the people, the dedicated men and women of USTRANSC0M who, no matter what the odds, always get the job done successfully.

Day-to-day, the United States relies on USTRANSC0M to support its national interests worldwide. The command strives to improve readiness, continue force modernization and process improvements , and focus on quality-of-life issues for its people and their families. The command is a lean, mean, global military moving machine and it must stay that way as it moves into the 21st century. DTJ

Air Mobility Command, one of the Air Force's nine major commands, provides strategic and tactical airlift and aerial refueling for all of America's military forces. Its global mission ranges from supporting contingency operations via the transport of personnel and equipment to delivering critical humanitarian aid and aeromedical evacuation throughout the world.

Although other commands possess mobility aircraft, AMC is the lead command for all U.S. Air Force mobility operations and determines standards necessary to meet the force's global-reach mission.

AMC was formed in 1992 when the Department of the Air Force integrated tanker and cargo aircraft into a single team. The command's strategic and tactical mobility aircraft include: C-5 Galaxies, C-9 Nightingales, C-17 Globemaster Ills, C-BO Hercules, C-141 Starlifters, KC-10 Extenders, KC135 Stratotankers and C-21 operational support airlifters. These aircraft are assigned to AMC's 12 active duty bases and at AMC-gained Air National Guard and Alr Force Reserve units throughout the United States.

The command's headquarters and its Tanker Airlift Control Center-the agency responsible for coordinating all mobility missions worldwide-are located at Scott Air Force Base, IL.

Since its inception, AMC has been called upon by the National Command Authority to support major contingencies and humanitarian operations around the world, including operations Joint Endeavor and Provide Promise in

Bosnia-Herzegovina; Support Hope in Rwanda; Maintain Democracy in Haiti; Restore Hope in Somalia; and the buildup of forces in Sou ;west Asia. At home, the command has provided much-needed aid to disaster victims from coast to coast, and throughout the Americas.

In January 1998, c mmand aircrews delivered more than 2.7 million pounds of relief supplies to Andersen AFB, Guam, after Super 'l.j'yphoon Paka battered the island and nearly 40 tons of mergency relief supplies to China's Northern Hebel province after an earthquake rocked the region. C-17 aircrews from the 437th Airlift Wing, Charleston AFB, S also flew relief missions to eastern Canada and the northeastern United States after the areas were blasted by sevei;e winter storms.

AMC responded to Saddam Hussein's continued refusals to comply with UN weapons inspectors in February. Mobility for.ces throughout the world supported the massive deployment of troops and equipment to Southwest Asia, including combat aircraft, special forces and members of the Army's 3rd Infantry Division. In all, active duty, Guard and Reserve forces flew more than 300 airlift and nearly 200 refueling missions, delivering 10,000 passengers and 11,000 tons of cargo and off-loading 4.1 million pounds of fuel.

in March, a C-141 assigned to the 62nd Airlift Wing, McChord AFB, WA., air-evacuated six victims of an oil pipeline explosion in Esmeraldas, Ecuador, to a bum treatment facility in Galveston, TX. The government of Ecuador requested U.S. assist nee after the explosion in the small

refinery town February 26 killed seven people and injured many others. The Starlifter also carried an eight-member critical care transport team from Wilford Hall Medical Center, TX, to Ecuador to help transport the injured.

In July, the command flew 10 C-5 missions and two C-141 missions to assist with fire fighting efforts in Florida. During the operation dubbed "Phoenix Flame," the aircraft delivered more than 300 people and 740 tons of equipment to Naval Air Station, Jacksonville, and Patrick AFB, FL. Active duty, Guard and Reserve units also helped battle the blaze that spread across some 200,000 acres of Florida.

A C-141 from the 305th Air Mobility Wing, McGuire AFB, NJ, air-evacuated 15 seriously injured State Department employees from Nairobi, Kenya, to Ramstein Air Base, Germany in August. The 11 Americans and four Kenyan patients were hurt in the August 7 bombing of the U.S. Embassy in Nairobi. The patients-the first victims to

receive U S. medical attention outside Kenya-were rushed from Ramstein to Landstuhl Regional Medical Center. Other AMC aircraft flew missions to deliver a FBI team and relief workers and supplies to the region and to bring home the remains of the Americans who had been killed.

In September, the command received international media attention when one of its C-17 Globemaster Ills from Charleston AFB, SC, delivered Keiko the killer whale and star of the movie series, "Free Willy," from Newport, OR, to his home waters off Iceland. That same month, AMC aircraft also transported a team from the Federal Emergency Management Agency and relief workers and supplies to Puerto Rico after Hurri-eane Georges devastated the island.

e Navy's Military Sealift Command, headed by ear Adm. Gordon S. Holder, U.S. Navy, provides cean transportation for Department of Defense 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 addition to the command's transportation mission, MSC operates Combat Logistics Force ships that replenish and support the Navy fleet at sea as well as special mission ships that serve as at-sea platforms for various federal government agencies.

In peacetime, MSC accomplishes its diverse missions with more than 100 ships, plus nearly 100 in reduced operating status, or reserve. The command's key business operations are managed in five programs: the Naval Fleet Auxiliary Force Program, the Special Mission Program, the Prepositioning Program, the Ship Introduction Program,

and the Sealift Program. The programs function as independent modules-each tailored to the needs of its own unique customer base.

The Naval Fleet Auxiliary Force Program operates approximately 26 ships that provide direct support for Navy ships at sea. Most NFAF ships replenish supplies, including food, fuel, spare parts and ammunition, for naval forces afloat. Ocean-going tugs provide towing services to Navy ships at sea. All NFAF ships are crewed by civil service mariners, and each ship carries a Navy department ranging in size from four to 45 people, depending on the ship's mission.

The NFAF mission has grown in the last five years. The NFAF Fleet currently includes six combat stores ships, three ammunition ships, six ocean-going tugs, and eleven oilers. 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 can be fully activated, crewed and ready to sail within five days.

The Special Mission Program features 27 ships that carry out highly specialized missions around the world, including oceanographic surveys, missile tracking, navigation test support, coastal surveys, counter-drug operations and cable laying and repair. Most of the ships are U.S. governmentowned and are operated by mariners employed by private companies under contract to MSC or by civil service mariners. Chartered ships from private industry provide services such as ocean surveillance using towed surface sonar arrays and submarine escort for deep submergence rescue and exploratory vehicles. Military and civilian scientists and technicians are assigned to the ships to conduct specialized missions.

The Prepositioning Program operates 33 strategicallylocated ship s laden with military eq uipment and sup plies for the U.S. Army, Air Force, Navy, Marine Corps and Defense Logistics Agency. The ships are critical to the U.S. military's rapid response to crises anywhere in the world .

• Thirteen Combat Prepositioning Ships carry enough equipment, food , water and other supplies to support an Army 2X2 h eavy b riga de of 6,000 so ldiers for up t o 30 d ays. These ships are prepositioned in the Arabian Gulf, the Indian Ocean near Deigo Garcia and the western Pacific near Guam. By 2001, three additional ships will be part of the force.

• Thirteen Maritime Prepositioning Ships are laden with U.S. Marine Corps supplies and equipment. Each of the three MPS squadrons carries everything needed to support a Marine Corps Air/Ground Task Force of up to 17,000 Marines for 30 days. These ships are prepositioned in the Mediterranean Sea, the Indian Ocean near Diego Garcia and the southwest Pacific near Guam.

• Seven Logistics Prepositioning Ships support Air Force, Defense Logistics Agency and Navy needs. Three are loaded with Air Force precision munitions. Three more carry more than 600,000 barrels of fuel for the Defense Logistics Agency. A final ship is used by the Navy to rotate prepositioned fleet hospitals and carries an additional 500-bed fleet hospital.

• The Prepositioning Program also oversees two ships that are ordinarily kept in reduced operating status, the aviation logistics ships SS Wright and SS Curtiss. When activated, these ships provide at-sea maintenance facilities for Marine Corps aircraft.

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 to MSC from the Navy's uniformed operations. The program is especially important as MSC continues to acquire Combat Logistics Force ships transferred from military crew operations and adds 13 new large, medium-speed, roll-on/rolloff ships by the year 2001.

The Sealift Program is responsible for a fleet of approximately 20 ships, primarily tankers and dry cargo ships that 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 six Fast Sealift Ships, as well as another 8 7 Ready Reserve Force ships that are owned and 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 chartered dry cargo ships and tankers. The tankers carry DOD fuel from remote supply points worldwide to DOD fuel depots.

Headquartered in Washington, D.C., MSC employs about 7,000 people worldwide and has five major area commands: MSC Atlantic in Norfolk, Va.; MSC Pacific in San Diego, Calif.; MSC Europe in Naples, Italy; MSC Central in Bahrain 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 1998, sealift remained on the front lines of international events as Military Sealift Command ships visited more than 100 ports in 78 countries around the world. We sustained the U.S. Navy Fleet worldwide, conducted critical special missions for all services, operated prepositioned ships carrying supplies and equipment for our warfighters, acquired new vessels for the MSC fleet and met all Department of Defense ocean transportation needs.

We prepared for war in the Persian Gulf; helped keep the peace in Bosnia; carried routine supplies to Antarctica; conducted oceanographic surveys in Southeast Asia and the Middle East; supported domestic missile testing; helped the Coast Guard interdict drugs in the Eastern Pacific and resupplied carrier battle groups and amphibious ready groups around the world.

MSC carried relief cargoes for Hurricanes Georges and Mitch, taking much-needed construction supplies to Puerto Rico, Antigua and Central America.

MSC ships were there when they were needed, rescuing four Sumatran fishermen whose fishing boat sank after a collision in the southeast Pacific Ocean, providing proper burial at sea for 34 bodies discovered and recovered in the Gulf of Aden, aiding a disabled fishing vessel that was adrift for five days in the Straits of Malacca, and providing a tow to a disabled Greek merchant vessel, saving her from grounding on the Ulithi Atoll in the western Pacific.

As MSC enters 1999, its roles and responsibilities continue to grow. The lessons learned in the Persian Gulf War 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. Sealift will remain an enduring mission. DTJ

The Military Traffic Management Command (MTMC) plays a vital role In our Nation's defense by providing Worldwide Port Operations, Global Traffic Management, Integrated Transportation Systems, and Deployability Engineering to the Services, Defense Agencies and Unified Commands.

MTMC is both a Major Army Command and the Army's component of the United States Transportation Command (US1fRANSCOM). Its approximately 3,300 active duty military and civilian employees are stationed throughout the world to maintain the effectiveness of the Defense Transportation System. Through a total force augmentation of approximately 2,600 reservists, and commercial industry partner, MTMC provides the backbone of USTRANSCOMs capability for supporting CinC transportation and power projection requiremem.ts. Headquartered in Falls Church, VA, operations are executed through three geographically oriented subordinate commands and one functional command.

• MTMC Deployment Support Command (DSC), located at Fo t Eustis, VA, supports the CONUS power projection mission and has an area responsibility that includes the Continental United States, Alaska, Centnal and South America, and the Caribbean.

• 598th Transportation Group (Terminal), located in Rotterdam, The Netherlands, supports EUCOM and CENTCON1, and is responsible for Europe, the Middle and Near East, and Africa.

• 599th Transportation Group (Terminal), located at Wheeler Army Airfield, HI, supports PACOM and is responsible for Asia. and the Pacific.

• MTMC Transportation Engineering Agency in Newport News, VA provides DoD with the technical and analytical expertise to improve the deployability of the U.S. Armed Forces.

As a global traffic manager, MTMC routes nearly 99% of DoD shipment tonnage through its guaranteed traffic and direct cargo booking programs, and influences nearly $4 billion worth of commercial transportation services annually. This requires MTMC to approve domestic and international freight and household goods carriers and warehouses, negotiate rates and services for motor and rail transport within the continental U.S., arrange commercial ocean lift of export containers, and book ocean cargo worldwide. While not a mode operator in the traditional sense, MTMC manages a fleet of nearly 2,000 DoD owned railcars and over 11,000 containers. Although much of MTMC's passenger business has been absorbed by USTRANSCOM and Air Mobility Command in recent years, MTMC is the single manager for moving recruits from all services to their basic training sites.

Working to maintain its leadership in the traffic management field well into the next century, MTMC has developed a new, more efficient Privately Owned Vehicle (POV) shipping program designed to provide better service to service members and their families while relying on industry partners to reduce DoD infrastructure investment. MTMC is also reengineering the Household Goods Program to bring full competition and best value contractor selection to personal property contracts.

As DoD's single port manager, MTMC maintains a presence at 26 commercial and military water ports throughout the world and manages approximately 10.3 million measurement tons of cargo annually through its ports. MTMC arranges for the transport of cargo to the sea ports of embarkation, performs ship load planning, loads and discharges, and coordinates onward movement from the port of debarkation. MTMC's expertise in managing and conducting port operations and its port presence enables it to respond rapidly to global contingencies at any common user port location. Through process improvement initiatives and modernization, MTMC constantly strives to enhance the operating efficiency of its water port activities. This year MTMC consolidated it's Western Area Command headquarters into the Deployment Support Commend (DSC) at Fort Eustis, VA, to provide streamlined command and control for MTMC water port facilities in North and South America. As a result of Base Realignment and Closure actions, the 596th Transportation Group, Oakland Army Base, Oakland, CA, was relocated to Beaumont, TX, and the 600th Transportation Group, Military Ocean Terminal, Bayonne, NJ, was relocated to Fort Monmouth, NJ. All MTMC water port operat10ns on the East Coast are now the responsibility of the 597th Transportation Group located at the Military Ocean Terminal Sunny Point, NC. All of the terminals located on the West and Gulf Coasts of CONUS, Alaska, the Caribbean, and Central and South America are now the responsibility of the 596th

Military Traffic Management Command

Transportation Group located at Beaumont, TX. This new water terminal alignment will provide MTMC with an organization structure that can provide more efficient support to deploying units.

ln 1998, MTMC water port facilities participated in 29 field Training Exercises worldwide in support of the warflghting Commanders-in-Chief. In addition, the Command assisted with three Sealift Emergency Deployment Readiness Exercises in CONUS and three Command Post Exercises. Humanitarian assistance and natural disaster support was rendered in 25 countries including assistance to the people of the Caribbean and Central American countries that were devistated by Hurricane Mitch. MTMC provided port operations in the Balkans for two force rotations.

As a transportation information systems developer and integrator, MTMC manages nine DoD transportation systems that enable MTMC and USTRANSCOM to conduct port operations, traffic management and deployability engineering. MTMC uses the Integrated Booking System (JBS), Integrated Computerized Deployment System (!CODES), and the Worldwide Port System (WPS) to support port operations. IBS is used by shippers and MTMC worldwide to book cargo on both commercial and military vessels. !CODES is a decision support ship stowplanning system using artificial intelligence technology which enables MTMC port operators to quickly develop stow plan options. WPS is MTMC's automated information system which tracks and documents the movement of DoD ocean cargo through water ports CONUS Freight Management (CFM) is the central traffic management system for the domestic movement of DoD freight. The Group Operational Passenger System (GOPAX) is used to generate passenger group movement requests, provide solicitations to industry, and provide routings and price data back to the customer. The Transportation Operational Personal Property System (TOPS) automates and standardizes the DoD personal property movement and storage program worldwide. Air Load Module (ALM) enables transportation planners to develop accurate air load plans The Enhanced Logistics Intra-Theater Support Tool (ELIST) assists planners in determining whether a movement plan is feasible based on infrastructure and assets. Lastly, the Asset Management System (AMS) supports MTMC's railcar and intermodal container management mission, providing requests, tracking, and reporting.

A major application of emerging information management technology within MTMC was the implementation of our new Personel Property Rates online system, which improves the accessibility of rate data through use of the World Wide Web. Electronic Transportation Acquisition System provides MTMC customers the ability to conduct business through the MTMC home page. Improvements to CFM, including movement towards Web-based technology, are progressing. Continued fielding and enhancements to IBS, WPS, !CODES, GOPAX, TOPS and ALM reflect MTMC's

(cont'd from page 33)

commitment to developing and fielding systems that are state-of-the-art, respond to our customer's needs, and improve accountability and business practices.

Tbe MTMC Transportation Engineering Agency (MTMCTEA), Newport News, VA, provides DoD with the technical and analytical expertise to improve the deployability of U S. Armed forces. This is accomplished by developing and applying modeling and simulation tools to support force projection and focused logistics; by ensuring military equipment is designed with appropriate transportability characteristics; by assessing and improving the DTS infrastructure; and by managing and supporting DoD interests in the civil transportation engineering programs.

MTMCTEA develops and fields state-of-the art modeling and simulation tools capable of supporting OSD, JCS, Unified Commands, and the Services . These tools, which are part of the Force Projection Modeling Suite, include the Transportability Analysis Reports Generator (TARGET), Transportation System Capability (TRANSCAP), Port Simulation Model (PORTSIM), and E.LIST. AU of these tools were selected and approved as DoD migration systems.

MTMC headquarters will reorganize to align HQ functions with its core competencies and combine operational elements under functional leadership. The new organization will create two new Deputy Chiefs-of-Staff, one for cargo operations (DCSOPS) and one for passenger and personal property (DCSPPP).

The DCSOPS will have responsibility for all DoD freight/cargo movements and port operations. It will combine elements of the current DCSOPS and the Joint Traffic Management Office CTTMO). The ADCSOPSOperations will have the command operations center, terminals, and force protection. The Director, JTMO, will have a distribution analysis center, freight services DLA customer service, services customer service, intermodal customer service, special DoD customer service, intermodal equipment, and contract support divisions. The ADCSOPS-Plans will have readiness, strategic mobility, and mobility systems support division.

The DCSPPP will absorb responsibility for all DoD personal property and POV shipment and storage programs and all MTMC-coordinated passenger movements, along with proponency for the systems that support these movements. The organization will have four divisions. The Personal Property Division will include domestic and international rates, special movements, storage and POV, and carrier qualification and performance. The Passenger Programs Division will include carrier qualifications and performance, recruit movement, travel services and special actions. The Systems Support and Business Integration Division will include a passenger branch and personal property branch for systems support, along with a business integration branch. The Personal Property Reengineering Division will focus on reengineering DoD's personal property and POV programs. DTJ

Transportation Policy Division

e Transportation Policy Division develops and mplements policy, procedures and guidance for ransportation and services for Army-sponsored argo, passenger, personal property movements and nontactical vehicles. The Division has responsibility for Army transportation programs that spend approximately $2.7 billion annually. The Division consists of three teams.

The Passenger Travel/Personal Property/Nontactical Vehicle Team develops policy and procedures related to the entitlement for passenger travel and reengineering of travel services and travel management. It is the Army Staff proponent for all Army and joint service policy, legislation and Joint Federal Travel Regulation and Joint Travel Regulation changes pertaining to personnel movements. In addition, the Team develops policy and procedures related to the entitlement for transportation and storage of personal property and privately owned vehicles (POV) and the DOD POV Import Control Program. It interprets legislated transportation travel entitlements of soldiers and military families to support Army objectives and manages the Army's Do-ItYourself (DITY) move program. It provides general program management for the Army's conventional and alternative fueled non-tactical vehicle fleet, and the expansion of the Interagency Fleet Management System, OCONUS.

The Cargo Team establishes transportation and traffic management policies and participates in DOD efforts to reengineer the entire transportation process (e.g., DOD's Management Reform Memorandum 15). It develops requirements for Army Second Destination Transportation, and

manages Transportation Account Code (TAC) creation and the Internet TAC file. It is also the Army focal point for Special Assignment Airlift Missions (SMMS), Air Cargo Frequency Channels, Transportation of Hazardous Materials (HAZMAT), Border Clearance (Customs/Agriculture/ Immigration) and shipments within the Defense Transportation System.

The Full Service Moving Project (FSMP) Team is a multi-service Integrated Project Team (IPT). The IPT is responsible for developing the FSMP acquisition to provide service members a relocation package that includes the management and movement of household goods, reengineering of the current onerous process soldiers face, and relocation services like home finding for buyers and renters. FSMP is a "one touch" process that makes moving easier.

Troop Support Division

The Troop Support Division serves as the Army staff focal point for soldier support policy for the warfighter. Day~today responsibilities involve proponency programmmg responsibilities and staff oversight of assigned programs involving subsistence, clothing and individual equipment, field service support, fuel and water. To achieve management of these programs, the Troop Support Division is comprised of four separate teams: the Subsistence Team, the Clothing and Individual Equipment Team, the Field Service Team, and the Petroleum and Water Team. Key elements of the Division's mission are Subsistence Prime Vendor, Army Field Feeding System Future, Policy and Resourcing of Army Clothing & Individual Equipment, Central Issue Facility

automation, management and oversight of Force Provider, Mortuary Affairs (Graves Registration), aerial delivery, Airborne and Airdrop Equipment and Systems, bulk petroleum and packaged petroleum logistics, and serving as the DOD executive agent for tactical water support to land-based resources. The Division is also the Service principal on matters pertaining to quality of life issues to include commissary and exchange benefits.

Strategic Mobility Division

The Strategic Mobility Division serves as the Army's focal point on strategic mobility, transportation contingency planning, mobilization/deployment issues and transportation automation. Two teams (Strategic Lift and Plans and Operations) supervise day-to-day operations and a Drilling Individual Augmentation Cell, which provides support during contingency and wartime situations. The Automation Team's day-to-day responsibilities involve proponency and staff oversight of the content, integration with existing automation baselines, force structure, policy and procedures for assigned transportation automation systems.

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 U.S. 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 Congressionallymandated Mobility Requirements Study (MRS) and MRS Bottom Up Review Update (BURU).

The Army's Strategic Mobility Program (ASMP) is synchronized to ensure a total "fort to foxhole" deployment system that provides the Army the ability to rapidly deploy a versatile, lethal, expandable, and sustainable CONUS-based military force capable of achieving decisive victory. This comprehensive program addresses infrastructure requirements such as rail, seaport, and airfield improvements to facilitate movement of personnel and equipment from CONUS bases to Aerial/Sea Ports of Embarkation (APOE/SPOE). Infrastructure and equipment improvements are focused at designated CONUS Power Projection Platforms that include 15 installations, 14 airfields, 17 strategic seaports, and 11 ammunition depots and

plants. Strategic deployment training is essential to rapid deployment capability; therefore, the Army continues to include Sea Emergency Deployment Readiness Exercises (SEDRE) and Army Prepositioned Afloat exercises as a routine part of training.

The Prepositioned Afloat Program (APS3) is transitioning from an interim fleet of Roll-On/Roll-Off (RO/RO) ships to Large Medium Speed RO/RO ships (LMSR). At end state, the Army's afloat preposition-

ing program will consist of 15 ships, 8 of which will be LMSRs, providing Combat/Combat Support and Combat Service Support equipment useful to a force of any mix, regardless of the force deployment sequence.

The Army is the lead Service in developing the Transportation Coordinators Automated Information for Movements System II (TC AIMS ID, a joint program which will replace numerous existing installation and organizational transportation systems with one DoD system for support of deployment, intransit visibility and redeployment.

The Strategic Mobility Division's commitment to a synchronized deployment system is reaffirmed as we execute the FY 00 Program. This investment in prepositioning and infrastructure improvements, in conjunction with the other Service's investments in strategic airlift and sealift, provide the enabling capabilities to meet the requirements of the National Military Strategy.

Some current transportation-oriented DoD and Army programs AMC leads or supports are:

.. Army Strategic Mobility Program involves enhancement of movement of units and sustainment overseas through improvements to ports, automated systems, facilities, rail equipment and containers, floating depots 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) technology is used by transporters to pay bills and move transportation documents and data worldwide in the Defense Transportation System 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.

• The Army/ AMC logistics intelligence file (LIF) requirements are being coordinated with USTRANSCOM's Global Transportation Network (GTN) to accommodate the database needed by the Army to continue providing, for example, lntransit Visibility to commanders on status of materiel and order ship times.

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 expe-

ditiously 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, Saudi Arabia, Europe and the Far East.

Te mission of the United States Air Force, Directorate f Transportation, is to plan, develop policy, program and allocate resources to ensure the Air Force has a esponsive transportation system in peace and war. Our challenge is to meet the demanding requirements of a national policy based on Rapid Global Mobility using integrated logistics and the tenets of Agile Combat Support.

The transportation staff is working several initiatives to meet the challenges of a reduced force structure. 'Ihese indude express delivery, outsourcing, and transportation reinvention activities. The express delivery concept supports the Air Force's Lean Logistics tenet of Agile Combat support. Through Lean Logistics, the Air Force reduced the requirement for on-hand inventories. Because these inventories are no longer available, expedited transportation has become critical to sustain our equipment and weapons systems. The Lean Logistics concept applies in peacetime and contingencies. Several initiatives have been, and are being, developed by our Combat Readiness Division, a strategic partnership between USTRANSCOM and DLA. Fast, reliable, door-to-door distribution is the foundation upon which Industry builds just-intime inventory systems. The Air Force is benchmarking a variety of outstanding industry practices to ensure time-definite delivery in an age of fewer resources.

As the Air Force continues to downsize personnel and strength and resources diminish, emphasis must be placed on improving the way we manage our assets. The goal of the Outsourcing and Privatization program is to improve the performance, quality, efficiency and cost-effectiveness of Air Force activities by relying on private enterprise to provide commercial services. In the process, we will focus ou:r personnel and resources on core activities, sustain readiness and generate future savings for force modernization. Since most of transportation functions fall in the category of "commercial activities," we are heavily engaged in identifying potential candidates for possible cost comparison studies. Though

recent studies, such as the quadrennial Defense review, are indicating a very aggressive timeline for implementation of these contracts, we are engaging multiple levels of transportation expertise to make sure our decisions today are the right ones for the future of our industry. By seeking the right expertise and employing the best ideas, the transportation policies we create will support both peace and contingencies.

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 and Equipment Division (ILTV). Their responsibilities are as follows:

Traffic Management Division

Develops and implements policy for all Air Force cargo, passenger and personal property by military and commei cial transportation. Service representative for traffic management issues working directly with OSD, Joint Staff, Unified Commands and other DoD Service Agencies in the development and implementation of transportation policy. RePfesents the Air Force as executive board member on the Personal Property Coordinating Council, Passenger Service Advisory Group and Cargo Movements Council. In addition, this Division serves as the Air Force focal point and program manager for border clearances and customs requirements. It manages the Air Force Cargo Movement Operations System (CMOS) and the Transportation Operational Personal Property Standard System (TOPS) systems. Finally, the division is the Air Force functional manager for the TCAIMS II program.

The Traffic Management Division is engaging in reengineering efforts desig!).ed to increase traffic management efficiency, streamline o erational procedures, and provide better customer service. It represents the Air Force on the DoD Defense Travel ree:n~neering Task Force, which has ongoing initiatives in temporary duty, permanent change of station and Ready Reserve travel. Additionally, it provides Air Force representation to the DoD reengineering personal property team and is developing an initiative to field an expert system to be used in Personal Property Entitlements counseling. Finally, it rep esents the Air Force on the DoD Reengineering Defense Transportation Documentation and Financial Process efforts. One of its responsibilities in this area is to look at the potential benefits of third party logistics providers performing some of our traffic management functions. The Air Force will participate in a test late in 1999 to evaluate third paf!:Y logistics.

Jane F. Garvey Administrator, FAA

Administrator, FHWA

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), an agency of the Department of Transportation since 1967, has developed a national aviation system that is universally recognized as the safest and most technologically advanced system in the world. The FAA's 47,000 employees are responsible for issuing and enforcing regulations to ensure the safety of America's airways. They set standards and guidelines for air traffic controllers, pilots, aircraft manufacturers, air carriers, and airports. The FAA is headed by an Administrator who

is assisted by a Deputy Administrator. Reporting to the Administrator are six Associate Administrators who direct the line-of-business organizations that carry out the agency's principal functions. Also reporting to the Administrator are the Chief Counsel and eight Assistant Administrators responsible for other key programs. The FAA's field organization includes nine geographical regions and two major centers, the Mike Monroney Aeuronautical Center and the William]. Hughes Technical Center.

Severalelements of the FHWA are actively involved with the DoD on transportation and logistics issues. The agency's Transportation Studies Division works with the US Army Corps of Engineers Water Support Center, as does the Bridge Division with its National Bridge Inspection Program. The Structures Division has an agreement with the Navy to develop two

new high-performance steel grades for use in highway bridge construction.

The Intermodal and Statewide Programs Division works with the Military Traffic Management Command Transportation Engineering Agency (MTMCTEA) to identify 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 and the MTMCTEA established a joint action plan for addressing several high-priority areas These include defense highway and

bridge condition performance assessment, oversize/overweight vehicles, emergency highway traffic regulation plans, and military installation issues on public lands. The agency also works with state departments of transportation to develop Emergency Highway Traffic Regulations (EHTR) to ensure the effective allocation of highway space to defense movements on a priority basis during a national emergency.

The FHWA's participation in DoD's Unmanned Ground Vehicles Program and other activities have helped bring many defense organizations into the Intelligent Transportation Systems era.

The FHWA's Office of Motor carriers (OMC) has a close working relationship with the Military Traffic Management Command and regularly exchanges information on motor carrier fitness. The OMC works with various elements of the Army and the Army Reserve to keep DoD driver issues compatible with the federal commercial drivers licensing standards. In addition, the OMC has a contract with Walter Reed Hospital for some research into aspects of driver fatigue.

As part of the Office of the Secretary, the Office of Intermodalism provides a senior-level focal point within the Department to foster intermodal approaches and solutions to transportation concerns. It seeks to assure that passengers and freight are able to move in an integrated fashion over the nation's transportation systems, whether surface, air, or water.

The Office seeks to improve communication and coordination with all of the interests involved in interstate and international transportation-public and private sector. It becomes involved in infrastructure projects such as Los Angeles' Alameda Corridor, where a 17-mile dedicated rail/truck corridor will relieve congestion and facilitate the flow of freight, as well as in regulatory or process issues such as safety inspections for intermodal truck equipment and facilitating the federal/state environmental review of the proposed Florida Overland Express, which would create high-speed passenger rail service for Tampa, Orlando, and Miami.

In working with its federal partners, the Office is aware of the unique role the Department of Defense plays as the nation's larg est shipper. Over the past year, it has worked closely with the Department of the Army and the United States Transportation Command in analyzing the commercial feasibility of developing either an air cargo facility or a rail/truck intermodal center at Fort Blis s in El Paso, TX. In the upcoming year, it will use the lessons learned from this and past cooperative initiatives to assure that the nation's transportation system is able to provide the mobility needed for personal, commercial, and defense needs.

NHTSA administers grant programs to the states to help them organize, develop and implement highway safety programs. From time to time , NHTSA lends technical and other assistance to the safety officers on military installations in order to increase awareness of, and compliance with, motor vehicle safety standards such as seat belts and child safety seats. The agency is committed to reaching two important safety goals by the year 2005increasing to 90 percent the number of drivers and passengers who use seat belts and reducing by 25 percent the number of children killed in car crashes.

Gordon J. Linton Administrator, FTA

The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) manages a program of financial assistance to public agencies at the state and local level that operate systems of mass transportation. While these agencies are primarily found in the nation's larger urban centers, some FTA resources are also directed to providers of public transportation in rural areas. In recent years, the FTA's annual appropriation has been slightly in excess of $4 billion. Most of these federal resources are used for capital investment in transit infrastructure This includes the construction of new or expanded rail transit systems, the purchase of new transit vehicles, and the construction or rehabilitation of support structures and facilities. FTA funds also support on-going programs of transportation planning at the state and local level, as well as research and development into promising new technologies and techniques.

The Office of Emergency Transportation (OET), a component of the Research and Special Programs Administration (RSPA), serves as the Department of Transportation's (DoT) multimodal crisis response management element. The office is responsible for the development and implementation of a broad range of Department-wide emergency plans and procedures to maintain a high state of federal civil transportation readiness. As DoT's Emergency Coordinator, the Director of OET provides policy direction and coordinates the emergency preparedness programs of the organizational elements of the Department. The Director also develops, maintains, and executes the Department's planning activities for the response to multimodal transportation emergencies, such as major military operations and natural and technological disasters. OET staff and the Emergency Coordinators from the Modal Administrations at headquarters, in concert with Regional Emergency Transportation Coordinators (RETCO) from the 10 regions, form the nucleus of the DoT crisis response team. In addition, OET provides planning assistance to and maintains close liaison with other elements of the federal transportation community, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the military, state and local authorities, and the transportation industry, serving as the lead agency for the transportation element of the Federal Response Plan.

At the onset of a major disaster, OET organizes and activates the DoT teams for the Crisis Management Center (CMC) at headquarters, as well as acquiring and managing transportation support to federal, state and local authorities in the affected region(s). From the CMC, OET manages the information flow on the status of a crisis and coordinates modal response activities with FEMA and the regions. Daily situation reports, including DoT actions, are provided to the Secretary. Following the conclusion of a crisis response, OET develops after-action reports to summarize lessons learned. Those actions requiring further discussion and study to determine if policies, plans or procedures need refinement are defined.

OET and the Washington chapter of the NDTA concluded a Memorandum of Agreement in January 1999 which

enhances the cooperation between our two organizations by forming an Emergency Transportation Working Group under the Emergency Preparedness Committee. The Working Group is designed to facilitate cooperation among the military, government, and private industry to address "matters pertaining to national eme rgency preparedness."

Other OET responslblllties Include:

Strategic Mobility: OET works closely with th e Office of the Secretary of Defense, the Joint Staff, the US Transportation Command and the transportation operating agencies to provide for civil transportation service in support of national mobilization and deployment objectives. The office manages the DoT responsibilities in the Civil Reserve Air Fleet and other mobility programs.

Continuity of Government: OET develops a coordinated plan for the uninterrupted performance of essential DoT functions at the national and regional level in the event of a major disruption of government, i.e. , an act of terrorism or a catastrophic disaster.

International Transportation: OET performs the responsibilities for NATO civil aviation planning assigned to DoT by the Department of State. Also, OET coordinates a cooperative program with Transport Canada for joint trans-border crisis planning and response.

MTMC

The port of Rijeka, Croatia, is the new entry point for American-based equipment bound for Bosnian peacekeeping duties. MTMC has scheduled five additional shipments through the Adriatic Sea port between March and October. "Rijeka has met all our expectations," said Col. Tom Thompson, commander of the Rotterdam-based 598th Transportation Brigade. "The port works real hard for us," he said. Rijeka was first used by MTMC in August to move the equipment of the 1st Brigade, 1st Cavalry Division. The Military Sealift Command's USNS Soderman moved the equipment from Beaumont, TX, and Wilmington, NC, to Rijeka. This port saves two weeks over a previous shipping route , and shortens the distance that helicopters must travel to Bosnia.

In other news, MTMC HQ will move to Hoffman II, at Army's Personnel Command HQ, outside Alexandria, VA at the Eisenhower Station (Yellow Line) no later than April 2000. This is the same move that was under consideration in recent months and abruptly dropped later due to funding restraints. At a recent meeting with representatives of GSA, DoD, DA, and MTMC, an agreement on the movement of the headquarters was reached, and it will commence as soon as possible.

Bookshelf Ideas

Dr. Joseph G. Mattingly Jr.

Contemporary Logistics by James C. Johnson, Donald F Wood, Daniel L. Wardlow and Paul R. Murphy published by Prentice Hall, Upper Saddle River, NJ 07458, 7th Edition 1999.

This text contains three parts, organized into fifteen chapters as follows: Part I: 1-Logistics Systems: their development and growth, 2-The Supply Chain Concept, 3-Logistics Interfaces with Suppliers and within the Firm, Part II: 4-Order Management and Customer Services, 5-Protective Packaging and Materials Handling, 6--The Domestic Transportation System, 7-The Traffic Management Function, 8-Distribution System, Warehouse, and Plant Location, 9-Inventory Management, 10-Distribution Centers and Warehousing, 11-International Logistics, Part III: 12-Reengineering Logistics Systems, 13-Logistics Systems Controls, 14-Supply-Chain Integration and Management, and 15-Logistics Future Decisions. Also included are a Glossary, a Subject Index, and a Name Index.

Chapters are organized to include key terms, learning objectives, summaries, questions and cases to emphasize the topics covered in the chapter. A separate instructor's manual is offered. Several of the case studies require the use of computers. Instructors should obtain the necessary software in advance from Prentice Hall Publishing Company. I believe this is an appropriate text for the first course in logistics at the college level. It can also be helpful to those practitioners of logistics as a reference book. •

Establishment of the United States Transportation Command, An Oral History by General Alfred G. Hansen, USAF (Ret.) Conducted by Dr. James K. Matthews, Director, Research Center, USTC, Scott Air Force Base, IL, October 1996. Copies are available from Transportation Command Research Center, 618-256-6167.

This interview provides General Hansen's candid and personal account of the behind-the-scenes deliberations and maneuverings that led to the establishment of a unified transportation command. It covers a wide range of issues including readiness, jointness, and the implications of the Goldwater-Nichols Department of Defense Reorganization Act of 1986. It also serves as a case study of how the Department of Defense was immediately, significantly and forever changed by the Goldwater-Nichols Act. 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 operating in the defense arena for our national security. It is an important primary source for academic and government historians.

History of Warships-From Ancient Times to the Twenty-First Century by James L. George, published by Naval Institute Press, 118 Maryland Avenue, Annapolis, MD 21402-5055.

This book is a comprehensive survey of the world's warships from antiquity to the present and beyond. The author provides a description of the major types of naval combatants through history. He compares, contrasts, and analyzes the ships in a readable, easy-to-use format for military history buffs and warship enthusiasts. The text is organized into four major ages of warships-galley, sail, steam, and modern.

A very interesting book for all those interested in military and naval history.

In Memoriam

Gerald W. Collins, FonnerNDTA President

Gerald W. Collins, NDTA's twenty-second president, died at age 79 in Bethesda, MD on April 20, 1999. Mr. Collins was a B-17 pilot during World War II and flew 35 missions across France into Germany. His plane, The Lady Jeannette, was the subject of a 1998 book. He entered the service as an Army Air Corps cadet in 1943, and was discharged as a Captain. Born in Canyon City, CO, he grew up in the Los Angeles area where he worked for the Chamber of Commerce. Later he transferred to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce in Washington, DC and then to NDTA.

During his 18 year tenure, America's transportation and travel history, as well as NDTA's own was marked by dynamic change. Man walked on the moon, we experienced the energy crisis, and we were introduced to the terror of skyjacking. We created Amtrak, witnessed the flight of the supersonic Concorde, agreed to turn over the Panama Canal and established the Department of Transportation.

Major events were occurring within the NDTA also, during Mr. Collins service. The Airlift and Sealift Committees were established, and the scope of the Association was extended to Europe and the Pacific. NDTA conferences were held in Paris, Berlin, Venice, and other European capitals, as well as Tokyo, Seoul, and Manila. The Military Unit Awards and the DoD Distinguished Service Award were established and also the A-35 program. And, as a Nation, we endured the Vietnam War.

During this period, Collins served under eight chief executive officers and recalled in his farewell letter that "it had been most gratifying working with the transportation leaders who served NDTA during those years. They were all outstanding businessmen," he recalled.

Collins is survived by his twin sons, Donald H. and Ronald F. Collins, and his brother, Harold Collins, who served as a bomber pilot in the South Pacific. Collins had a third brother, the late Donald Collins, who served as a fighter pilot in France. Gerry Collins was the beloved husband of the late Beverly G. Collins and Helen Amidon Collins. Helen Collins served the NDTA as DTJ Business Manager and National Secretary-Treasurer for 13 years.

The family has asked that memorial contributions, if desired, be made to the Comprehensive Cancer Center, University of Alabama at Birmingham, 205 Wallace Tumor Institute, Birmingham, AL 35282.
