Logistics Handbook for Strategic Mobility Planning
Abstract
This report provides a broad range of transportation planning data and guidance for mobilizing, deploying, and sustaining US Forces worldwide. This publication contains the following information: (1). General discussions of mobility planning considerations; (2). Discussions and specific planning guidance for five transportation modes (highway, rail, inland waterways, sea, and air); (3). Unit movement requirements; (4). Containerization discussion and guidance; and (5). Supplemental transportation appendixes. The information in this report is not directive in nature. It should be used only for planning purposes. While more accurate data may exist for each specific application, exercise, or mission being planned, this report can be used in the absence of such data. Also, more definitive data associated with detailed transportation analyses and the shipment of hazardous cargoes are beyond the scope of this report.
