LOGISTICS | Strategy is the planning of warfare. Tactics is the execution of those plans. Ixigistics, the third branch of military science, is the supplying of I everything necessary to strategy and tactics-in the right amount, at the right place, at the right time. Now, in total war, we must apply the science of logistics to all of our activities as a nation—civilian as well as military. WE-A 1.1. arc part of the Victory Program. Our supply lines are literally life lines of the United Nations. Man-power and munition-power are the controlling factors. Today, Ixjgistics dictates strategy—determines tactics. Congress has appropriated billions of dollars but it cannot appropriate one single second of time. I Time favors those who appreciate it as the priceless commodity it now is. In war, when we save time we aave lives—and we make our individual contribution to Victory. Department of Logistics International Business Machines Corporation
