A Comprehensive Look at the North Atlantic Treaty Organization Mutual Support Act of 1979

Abstract

This thesis examines the NATO Mutual Support Act of 1979. A review of the legislative history raises serious questions concerning DOD's implementation of the special authorities for acquisition and transfer of logistic support created by Congress through passage of the Act. This thesis concludes that DOD implementation has been confusing and overly restrictive and recommends that some statutory, regulatory, and policy changes are warranted.
