Since time and space limitations did not permit a thorough discussion of all important aspects of the USAF logistic system, this study concentrates on certain issues that reflect changes in basic policy. These include logistic planning to provide the optimum in war readiness, the relationship between the Air Force and American industry, and certain significant efforts to streamline the supply, maintenance, and transportation capabilities of the Air Force. This study does not consider the development of ballistic missile logistic support, which will be covered in a forthcoming study prepared by this office.
