Army Contractor and Civilian Maintenance, Supply, and Transportation Support During Operations Desert Shield and Desert Storm. Volume 1: Study Report

Abstract

This report documents the maintenance, supply, and transportation support that U.S. and foreign contractors and Department of Army civilians (DACs) provided to the U.S. Army in the Southwest Asia theater of operations during Operation Desert Shield/Storm (ODS/S). It addresses the four logistical phases that occurred during ODS/S: Initial, Alpha, Bravo, and Charlie. Logistics Assistance Representatives are not included in the DAC figures because they are an ongoing integral part of the operational units with which they deployed. Volume 1 of this report provides an overview of the the study results. It identifies who the contractors and DACs were, where they were located by the four major logistical phases of the operation, and the functions that they performed. It also provides the detailed data associated with our findings concerning the contractor and DAC contributions to logistics support of the ODS/ S theater of operations.
