Inhaltsangabe

This volume completes the bridge between combat and services in the European theater for which the author laid the foundations in Volume I. It is as important a book for combat commanders as for those who have to plan and execute logistical operations. It will leave the nonmilitary readerin no doubt of the enormous weight and complexity of the administrative burden that the Army had to assume to assure the success of its ground and air forces, and the resourcefulness with which it managed that burden.On the other hand, those who have to think about the future can here study a test of the principle of a single service of supply supporting thenational element of allied forces under a coalition headquarters and a supreme allied commander. (1958)
