   Problem Agitation

   Manual Logistics in Combat

   “Logistics is pretty complicated. If you do it right, then nobody notices it. If you fail, everybody knows. The longest deployment I did is 15 months to Iraq. I ran operations and the distribution. We had about 5,000 troops that we were supporting. Food, water, building materials, repair parts, medical supplies, and then you had an enemy that was trying to kill you. And we did all manually.”

   Problem Agitation

   Spreadsheets vs Enemy Fire

   “We might as well be throwing dice. Microsoft Excel is more or less the coin of the realm. A lot of spreadsheets being passed back and forth, a lot of radio-based communication, a lot of writing things down in notebooks. When I went to the career course, we had an Excel spreadsheet. That was the most technologically advanced thing in sustainment. That was it. Any decent logistician has 500 courses of action already pre-thought out in his or her head. Let's say that they blow a bridge. Your MSR (Main Supply Route) is closed. No plan survives first contact.”

   Call to Action

   Credible Deterrence

   “I wish this was available to me in my four deployments. I could complain, or I could be part of the solution. So, that's why I joined Gallatin. The more trucks we can keep off the road, the less exposure we have to the enemy. If we expect to have credible deterrence for our adversaries, we have to be serious about logistics and sustainment.”
