Abstract

When I was a student here in 1936, there was very little consideration given to the subject of logistics. At that time we in the Navy had, as we have now, a fine supply corps. Our supply officers were men who had a good knowledge of how to get things, when to get them, and how to distribute them, but the average line offi­cer took very little active part in such matters and in fact there was a tendency to avoid them if possible.
