Supply Chain Management Review

Abstract

During most of the invasion of Iraq I was safely ensconced in a headquarters outside of Venice, overseeing transportation of many millions of tons of supplies and thousands of people originally destined for the northern front. We tracked sometimes more than 300 flights per day, not to mention ships, trucks, trains, tankers, and thousands of specialists from dozens of transportation-related specialties.
