LOGISTICS
Abstract
This activity supports Marine Corps Expeditionary Logistics which is the practical discipline and real world application of the deployment, sustainment, reconstitution, and re-deployment of forces engaged in expeditionary operations. Expeditionary Logistics replaces mass with assured knowledge and speed, is equally capable ashore or afloat in austere environments, and is fully scalable to meet uncertain requirements. Expeditionary Logistics logically divides into five pillars: deployment support, force closure, sustainment, reconstitution/redeployment, and command and control. These pillars are thoroughly integrated and perpetually related in execution. The FY 2014 to FY 2015 funding decrease is due to the early completion and transition of a solid oxide fuel cell capable of directly oxidizing liquid logistic fuels. The FY 2015 to FY 2016 funding increase is due to the acceleration and early completion of the logistics C2 systems for optimizing the transportation of materiel across multiple intra and inter-theater connector vehicles (aka: Transportation Exploitation Tool).
