Transportation, Supply, and Logistics


Occupations in this career field focus on the acquisition, allocation, preparation, transport, and storage of the numerous supplies and materials needed to conduct military operations.
The military is a large, mobile force consisting of aircraft, tanks, trucks, ships, submarines, and other equipment, and hundreds of thousands of service men and women—all continually on the move. Ships, aircraft, trucks, buses, vans, and trains are all part of the military’s transportation system. Keeping the armed forces ready and able to travel anywhere and everywhere in the world safely and efficiently requires strategic planning and strong organizational and troubleshooting skills. It is essential to effectively coordinate and carry out the movement of troops, equipment, supplies, mail, weapons, and machinery to ensure they arrive at the correct destination in an orderly and efficient manner. Keeping the military’s supply system operating smoothly is also an important job. The military maintains a large inventory of food, medicines, ammunition, spare parts, and other supplies, which must be ordered, stored, and distributed each day.
