We hope that DLSC Cohort 3 had an interesting week studying leadership and change in the logistics context. Always difficult to work so collaboratively on line - thanks for all the engagement- welcome back to the world of study.

A good read from 2014. Why not read the chapters on Logistics and Procurement- good links to strategy and the impact of Military Logistics. After all there are not that many out there.

Found this by accident- a view of the “fourth arm of Defence”. Very interesting view of the industrial base and impact on strategy. Works well with the definition of Logistics from Eccles as the bridge between the home base and the front line. bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0007qb…

Good to be connected- thanks for the text Trevor. Just starting - but looking forward to searching for lessons on large scale logistics in peer on peer operations.
An interesting insight into possible supply solutions of the future to enable resilience. Thanks for sharing with the wider community.

What is PME Anyway? - Wavell Room Short Read % % I hope this is what we do on the Defence Logistics Staff Course. Working hard to provide UK military Logisticians with “military training, CPD and Academic education in an integrated manner...” wavellroom.com/2020/08/04/wh…

As there are not many Military logistics texts anyway thought one with a Naval focus might be interesting: archive.org/details/usnavall…

Thanks Jobbie- I thought this was really interesting. I have had several students wanting to compare the SCs . Although they clearly don't share the same values there is some cross over in the SC concepts. Swarms of autonomous supply vehicles evading an enemy- great concept.
You may wish to explore the CILT FOCUS magazine which has Defence as a special feature.
Why not test this quote: "For every 1000 books on strategy there is one on logistics" These are all focused on military logistics....
