Change title to read "Aggressor Uniforms, Insignia, Currency and Logistics." * * * * * * * Section VI (added). Aggressor Logistics. 24.1. Logistical System. The Aggressor logistical system is con- stantly undergoing changes designed to increase its efficiency and effectiveness. Logistics is a command responsibility at all echelons. A general discussion of Aggressor logistics is published in Chapter 14, FM 30-102. It should be noted that the introduction of new handling methods and equipment apparently has not resulted in any appreciable change in the unique and massive Aggressor logistical structure. The key aspect of the system can best be described as the one that worked because of "pressure from above." It is a very complex system in which the chiefs of the logistical services are responsible for overall logistical coordination, but are only actually responsible for the procurement and supply of food and forage, quar- termaster type supplies, petroleum, oils and lubricants, and medical and veterinary supplies. aA Priorities. Priorities are rigidly adhered to when established by Aggressor. In a tight (limited or short supply) situation, priorities are absolute.

    From representation to inclusion: Diversity leadership for the 21st-Century Military Final RepoRt From representation to inclusion: Diversity leadership for the 21st-Century Military Final RepoRt MILITARY LEADERSHIP DIVERSITY COMMISSION 1851 South Bell Street Arlington, VA 22202 March 15, 2011 The Honorable Barack Obama, President of the United States The 112th United States Congress Mr. President and Members of Congress: The National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2009 established the Military Leadership Diversity Commission. The Commission was asked to conduct a comprehen- sive evaluation and assessment of policies and practices that shape diversity among mili- tary leaders. Sixteen interrelated tasks, given by Congress, informed the Commission’s enclosed final report, From Representation to Inclusion: Diversity Leadership for the 21st- Century Military. As chairman of this Commission, I am proud to present this report for your consideration. The Commission held itself to high standards of openness and transparency in all deliberations. Moreover, we modeled inclusiveness by inviting those with diverse back- grounds, expertise, and experience to have a say in our independent analysis. The Com- mission sought extensive input for our deliberations from the Department of Defense and the Services as well as the private sector. We hosted 13 public hearings, meeting in loca- tions across the country where many active-duty servicemembers and veterans reside. We heard public testimony from top military leaders, subject matter experts, and diversity officers from leading corporations known for their diversity practices. In addition, we con- ducted interviews with servicemembers. The Commission believes that the diversity of our servicemembers is the unique strength of our military.

Military applications emerged fairly early in the infancy of aviation, in the form of first trials to establish the superiority of the third dimension over the battlefield. Well- known examples include the balloon reconnaissance efforts made in France even before the birth of the aircraft, and it was not long before the first generation of flimsy, underpowered aircraft were being tested in a military environment. The Italians used aircraft for reconnaissance missions at Tripoli in 1910-1912, and the Americans made their first attempts at taking air power to sea as early as 1910-1911.

  • GAO-02-914T Military and Veterans' Benefits: Observations on The
    United States General Accounting Office GAO Testimony Before the Subcommittee on Benefits, Committee on Veterans’ Affairs, House of Representatives For Release on Delivery Expected at 10:00 a.m. EST, Thursday, July 18, 2002 MILITARY AND VETERANS’ BENEFITS Observations on the Transition Assistance Program Statement of Cynthia A. Bascetta, Director Education, Workforce, and Income Security Issues GAO-02-914T Mr. Chairman and Members of the Subcommittee: Thank you for inviting me to discuss the military’s transition assistance program, which the Congress established in 1990 during a time of military downsizing to help service men and women return to civilian life. Since its inception, the program has served over one million separating and retiring military personnel and has been administered through the coordinated efforts of the Departments of Defense (DOD), Transportation (DOT), Labor (DOL), and Veterans Affairs (VA). In fiscal year 2001, the military branches and DOL spent approximately $47.5 million to provide transition assistance to about 222,000 separating and retiring service members. Today, I will describe the transition assistance offered by each military branch and how their transition assistance programs and services differ. I will also discuss what is known about how well program objectives, such as transitioning to civilian employment, have been met. To conduct our work, we analyzed program descriptions and administrative data from documentation provided by DOD, DOT, DOL, and VA. We also conducted structured group interviews during fieldwork at five locations, one at each military branch—the Army, Air Force, Navy, Marines, and Coast Guard.1 We talked to about 70 service members, including separatees and retirees as well as members expected to separate with a disability, who had participated in the transition assistance workshop.

How much defense is enough in the post–Cold War era?”1 Finding a satisfactory answer to these deceptively simple questions not only motivated the Bottom-Up Review but has arguably animated defense strategy for the past quarter century.
