upply and maintenance belong together. They work together as a team. Short of that,
your unit’s logistics system is broken. But it doesn’t have to stay that way.
If supply and maintenance work together, you have the tools and parts you need
whenever it’s time to do repairs or other maintenance tasks.
If your unit needs rations, ammo, fuel, water, or anything else necessary for completing
its mission, supply and maintenance must go hand-in-hand! Rations without a ready
Soldier, ammo without a ready weapon, and fuel without a ready vehicle don’t quite make
the mission a go.
Leaders at all levels must resist the temptation to push supply and maintenance matters
to the side. Without command emphasis, supply and maintenance suffer from lack of
resources and motivation.
Supply alone is important, and so is maintenance. But when supply and maintenance
are combined, the union can produce sweet operational results.
