Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Quartermaster and Ordnance Supply: A Guide to the Principles of the Supply Service of the United States Army On May 5, 1917, the Storage Committee of the Council of National Defense requested the School of Commerce and Administration of the University of Chicago to offer a course in army supply work. This request was later supported by the Ordnance Department and the Quartermaster Corps. The course was organized and has just been given for the third time. The numbers taking it and the frequency of requests for an outline of its subject-matter have seemed to justify putting this subject-matter into accessible form. An appropriate title for the book would have been "Army Supply Work." Although the work of only two army bureaus is considered in extended form, the principles developed are applicable to the supply work of other departments. Not all phases of this supply work have been treated. Manufacturing operations, the work of constructing quartermasters, and the work of paymasters are some of the outstanding exclusions. Numerous changes are now being made in the details of our army supply work, but no great modifications seem likely to occur in its fundamental principles. In view of this situation and also in view of the existence of various books and manuals concerning themselves with details, it has seemed that this book would render its best service by presenting the general outline or basic principles of supply work, with only such use of details as would be helpful in showing how the principles are applied. Anyone who has mastered the principles concerned will not find himself at a loss when changes are ordered in technical details. Adequate acknowledgment cannot be made of the cordial cooperation which has been received from every side. Worthy of particular mention are: the long periods of overtime work by an already heavily burdened office force and library staff, the material furnished by the Quartermaster Corps School connected with the Philadelphia Depot, and the contributions of the instructing staff.
