Books, Manuscripts
¿́¿Thompson has produced a study of the place of logistics in the military campaign, using a number of campaigns to illustrate how the problem of supplying forces has been tackled over the centuries. By examining the changes in logistics operations over selected campaigns, Thompson identifies the essential elements in successful supply and how campaigns have suffered as a result of logistic defi ciency. This book is not a about ¿́¿nuts and bolts¿́¿ but an absorbing and highly readable study of principle and practice.¿́¿ -- SAF Professional Reading Programme, 4th Edition ¿́¿ STAGE III: MAJ 2 to LTC 1.
