Logistics in 2030 and Beyond: Training Considerations For Distributed Maritime Operations

Abstract

The Marine Corps currently trains logisticians to support conventional Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU) operations and sustained combat operations ashore. These operations rely upon existing global infrastructure, Navy/Marine Corps transportation platforms, command and controls systems, and task organizations. Force Design 2030 and the future operating environment do not project to be in alignment with these resources, exposing a shortfall in how the Marine Corps trains and educates logisticians. Recommendations are provided in an effort to modernize the training continuum.
