NDTA President
elcome to this year’s DTJ Almanac edition—our annual “go to guide” for the people in government and industry who together keep our nation supplied, supported, and moving. We’ve assembled for you all the information needed to stay connected with every facet of our enterprise, and hope that you will keep it close aboard and refer to it often as a convenient reference. All of us—to do our jobs properly—need to coordinate and communicate frequently; I think this Almanac goes a long way toward facilitating those conversations. As a relative newcomer to the organization, I have referred to my copy often! This edition also marks the debut of our newly updated logo which we believe is reflective of the positive direction NDTA is headed
as we begin our seventh decade of service. You can expect to start seeing it appear in all of our publications, mailings, and on our website. As I have said in previous columns, it’s nice that we’ve been around so long, but unless we stay attuned to the times and the needs of our constituents, we are no longer a part of the solution. We will continue to evolve, adjust, and keep moving forward, and our sporty new logo just underscores that notion. Planning for this year’s Fall Meeting (2830 September) at the Gaylord National in Washington DC is proceeding apace. We are again this year joined by our co-sponsor Commander USTRANSCOM in presenting what we believe will be an exciting and engaging program centered around the theme “Delivering Readiness Amid Risk
– Together.” Through a lineup of featured speakers, and round table panels designed to drill down into the crux of the issues and engage the audience, we believe that this year’s program will be one of the most topical and important in recent years. In addition, on Day 1 (Monday) prior to the start of the main meeting on Tuesday, we will be introducing the inaugural “University Day” featuring a wide range of educational opportunities for both government and industry personnel seeking to improve their understanding of the global transportation system. Please check our website at www.ndtahq.com/FallMtg15Home.htm for all the details, and to register for both the University day and the main Fall Meeting which follows. We have also been forging ahead in our quest to reorganize the Security Best Practices Committee to focus on Cyber Security. On February 13th, we hosted a conference call open to the entire NDTA membership entitled “NDTA Organizing for Cyber Security continued on page 120

he mission of the Office of the Secretary of Defense Logistics and Materiel Readiness is to provide globally responsive, operationally precise and cost-effective joint logistics support for the projection and sustainment of America’s warfighters. One of the top priorities of the Under Secretary of Defense (Acquisition, Technology, & Logistics), is supporting forces who are engaged in Overseas Contingency Operations, which includes timely and reliable logistics support. The Department continually strives to improve the efficiency of its logistics processes, organizations, and systems— while maintaining readiness and ensuring effective support for America’s warfighters. The Assistant Secretary of Defense for Logistics and Materiel Readiness established four logistics goals: • Ensure effective logistics support for current operations; • Ensure effective management of contractors; • Integrate life cycle management principles into DOD and Service acquisition, and implement product support assessment recommendations; • Integrate supply chain operations that effectively support warfighters and are efficient from source of supply to point of consumption. Two key elements of the DOD logistics enterprise—Transportation Policy and Supply Chain Integration—are highlighted herein.

When combatant commands, services, other government agencies, and coalition partners require movement, they rely on USTRANSCOM. Established in 1987, USTRANSCOM is responsible for the synchronization and interoperability of distribution-related activities supporting force projection, sustainment, and redeployment/retrograde of military forces and materiel. USTRANSCOM directs and supervises the execution of the distribution system and develops and implements distribution process improvements. USTRANSCOM’s assigned responsibilities as identified in the Unified Command Plan are: • Mobility Joint Force Provider • DOD Single Manager for Transportation • DOD Single Manager for Patient Movement • Distribution Process Owner • Global Distribution Operations • Global Standing Joint Force Headquarters.

teroperable information technology solutions and enhancing total asset visibility to distribution customers; institutionalizing sustainment planning into our contingency response processes; and streamlining distribution accountability (providing an accountable person for the supported combatant commander to contact for their distribution needs). USTRANSCOM works with the services and combatant commanders, using the best transformational concepts and ideas available. USTRANSCOM executes its mission through three component commands: 1. The US Army’s Military Surface Deployment and Distribution Command (SDDC) manages military land transportation and common-user ocean terminals. 2. The US Navy’s Military Sealift Command (MSC) is responsible for strategic sealift in support of worldwide deployment and sustainment of military forces. 3. The US Air Force’s Air Mobility Command (AMC) provides global airlift, aerial refueling, and aeromedical evacuation support for peacetime and wartime military movement requirements. USTRANSCOM also has one subordinate command, the Joint Enabling Capabilities Command (JECC). The JECC is designed to efficiently and effectively meet joint task force commanders’ requirements for a rapidly deployable, tailored team of experts in plans, operations, knowledge management, intelligence support, logistics, public affairs and communications. USTRANSCOM is responsible for distribution aspects of worldwide mobility planning and centralized global distribution management. Included in global distribution management is the responsibility of the command to support rapid execution planning, deployment, employment, and sustainment of US forces throughout the world. USTRANSCOM’s excellent relationship with the US commercial transportation industry allows DOD to augment organic capability and leverage significant capacity to meet both peacetime and wartime requirements.

ir Mobility Command (AMC), a major command headquartered at Scott AFB, IL, was created June 1, 1992. AMC provides America’s global reach. This rapid, flexible, and responsive air mobility promotes stability in regions by keeping America’s capability and character highly visible. AMC’s mission is to provide global air mobility . . . right effects, right place, right time. The command enables humanitarian support at home and around the world. Mobility Air Forces Airmen—active duty, Air National Guard, Air Force Reserve, and civilians— provide airlift and aerial refueling for all of America’s armed forces. Many special duty and operational support aircraft and stateside aeromedical evacuation missions are also assigned to AMC. United States forces must be able to provide a rapid, tailored response. A core
competency of mobility air forces is rapid global mobility. This puts the“global” in the Air Force’s global reach, global vigilance and global power. As the US winds down operations first in Iraq and now Afghanistan, AMC provides critical flexibility for US national security. As US Transportation Command’s air component, AMC is the single manager for air mobility. AMC’s mission encompasses nearly 135,000 active-duty and Air Reserve Component military and civilian personnel. The command has one numbered air force, 18th Air Force, which is charged with tasking and executing all air mobility missions. Units reporting to 18th Air Force include all operational AMC wings and groups based in the continental United States. They are key to the execution phase of warfighting, providing worldwide mobility support. The 618th Tanker Airlift Control Center (TACC), located at Scott AFB, also reports to 18th Air Force and serves as the organization’s air operations hub, planning and directing tanker and transport aircraft op-
erations around the world. AMC also has one major direct reporting unit, the USAF Expeditionary Center, located at Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, NJ. It oversees air base wings and a contingency response wing, which provides expeditionary mobility support. The USAF Expeditionary Center also serves as the Air Force’s premier organization for expeditionary innovation, education, training, and exercises. AMC’s ability to provide global reach is tested daily. From providing fuel, supplies, and aeromedical support to troops on the front line, to providing humanitarian supplies to hurricane, flood, and earthquake victims both at home and abroad, AMC has been engaged in almost nonstop operations since its inception. Command tankers and airlifters have supported peacekeeping and humanitarian efforts throughout the world and continue to play a vital role today. These many examples of the effective application of non-lethal air power indicate that air mobility is a national asset of growing importance for responding to emergencies, and protecting national interests around the globe.

T
he Deputy Chief of Naval Operations (Fleet Readiness & Logistics) (OPNAV N4) staff shapes, anticipates, innovates, and leads Navy readiness and logistics to enable and sustain Fleet operating forces and shore readiness, now and in the future. The staff issues policy, conducts program assessments, and serves as Resource and Requirements Sponsor to plan, program, and resource the readiness requirements of the Navy. OPNAV N4 enables responsive, adaptive, and effective logistics support to maximize and sustain readiness, and enable the integration of Naval forces into the Joint force. OPNAV N4 is committed to creating and maximizing alignment between our Joint partners, the Secretariat, OPNAV staff, our Fleet Customers, the Warfare and Provider Enterprises, and our stakeholders. Faced with an increasingly uncertain world and regional conflict, the demand for Fleet capabilities is only expected to increase, but it will be challenged by an increasingly constrained fiscal environment. N4 integrates readiness requirements to enable optimal allocation of scarce resources across all readiness and logistics programs, promote responsible stewardship of our environment, develop and implement policies governing logistics
supported by best practices, and guide the Navy in developing and executing a longterm energy strategy. N4 is responsible for a $13.7 billion annual budget, which accounts for 10% of the Navy’s Total Obligation Authority and 23% of the Navy’s OMN. Primary goals are to: • Excel in Our Role as Requirements/ Resource Sponsor to Ensure Afloat and Shore Readiness – N4 integrates the full spectrum of readiness requirements to enable optimum resource decision-making by Navy leadership. As the Fleet Readiness Requirements Sponsor and the Shore and Logistics Resource Sponsor, N4 works closely with US Fleet Forces within the framework of the Planning, Programming, Budgeting, and Execution System (PPBES), to ensure the optimal balance of operational availability and cost to support execution of the Fleet Response Plan. N4 also develops and executes the Chief of Naval Operations Shore Investment Strategy in close coordination with Commander, Navy Installations Command and the Fleet Warfare and Provider Enterprises.

MAY 2015
• Safety: Improving transportation safety remains DOT’s top priority. Our goal is to bring a department-wide focus on reducing transportation-related fatalities and injuries. In our safety chapter, we highlight roadway safety for all users; combating distracted driving and other dangerous behaviors; the need for a more effective Federal role in transit safety; and our strategies for addressing the most serious safety risks in other surface transportation modes and in aviation. • State of Good Repair: Recent reports on the condition of key facilities— highways, bridges, transit systems, passenger rail and airport runways—reveal that many fall short of a state of good repair and thus compromise the safety, capacity, and efficiency of the US transportation system. DOT will bring a strong programmatic emphasis and new resources to improving the condition of our infrastructure. DOT will encourage its government and industry partners to make optimal use of existing capacity, minimize life-cycle costs, and apply sound asset management principles throughout the system. • Economic Competitiveness: With demand for both freight and passenger transportation expected to more than double by 2050, our goal is to support the US economy by fostering smart, strategic investments that will serve the traveling public and facilitate freight movement. Our central strategies for achieving maximum economic returns on our policies and investments include leading the development of in-
tercity, high-speed passenger rail and a competitive air transportation system; increasing travel time reliability in freight-significant highway corridors; improving the performance of freight rail and maritime networks; advancing transportation interests in targeted markets around the world; and expanding opportunities in the transportation sector for small businesses. • Livable Communities: Fostering livable communities—places where coordinated transportation, housing, and commercial development gives people access to affordable and environmentally sustainable transportation—is a transformational policy shift for DOT. Over the last 50 years, transportation spending has often been poorly coordinated with other infrastructure investments resulting in auto-dependent residential communities where access to job opportunities and key amenities is inadequate and expensive. Our livable communities chapter addresses these and other related issues to show how we will pursue coordinated, place-based policies and investments that increase transportation choices and access to public transportation services for all Americans. • Environmental Sustainability: Transportation is crucial to our economy and our quality of life, but building, operating, and maintaining transportation systems clearly have significant environmental impacts on our air, water, and natural ecosystems. The transportation sector is a significant source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, accounting for 33 percent of total US GHG emissions in 2009. Our environmental sustainability chapter describes how we will address these challenges through strategies such as fuel economy standards for cars and trucks, more environmentally sound construction and operational practices, and by expanding opportunities for shifting freight from less fuel-efficient modes to more fuelefficient modes. • Organizational Excellence: Our organizational excellence chapter outlines the management strategies we will implement to make DOT a high-performance, outcome-driven agency, and the best place to work in the Federal government.

VISION AND MISSION
The vision of homeland security is to ensure a homeland that is safe, secure, and resilient against terrorism and other hazards. Three key concepts form the foundation of our national homeland security strategy designed to achieve this vision: • Security, • Resilience, and • Customs and Exchange. In turn, these key concepts drive broad areas of activity that the Quadrennial Homeland Security Review (QHSR) process defines as homeland security missions. These missions are enterprise-wide, and not limited to the Department of Homeland Security. These missions and their associated goals and objectives tell us in detail what it means to prevent, to protect, to
respond, and to recover, as well as to build in security, to ensure resilience, and to facilitate customs and exchange. Hundreds of thousands of people from across the federal government, state, local, tribal, and territorial governments, the private sector, and other nongovernmental organizations, are responsible for executing these missions. These are the people who regularly interact with the public, who are responsible for public safety and security, who own and operate our nation’s critical infrastructures and services, who perform research and develop technology, and who keep watch, prepare for, and respond to emerging threats and disasters. These homeland security professionals must have a clear sense of what it takes to achieve the overarching vision articulated above. THE CORE MISSIONS
There are five homeland security missions: 1. Prevent terrorism and enhance security 2. Secure and manage our borders 3. Enforce and administer our immigration laws 4. Safeguard and secure cyberspace 5. Ensure resilience to disasters In achieving these goals, we are continually strengthening our partnerships with communities, first responders, law enforcement, and government agencies—at the
state, local, tribal, federal, and international levels. We are accelerating the deployment of science, technology, and innovation in order to make America more secure. And we are becoming leaner, smarter, and more efficient, ensuring that every security resource is used as effectively as possible.

We will manage the shipment details from door to door and handle all of the paperwork required from pick up BOL to Powertrac billing. Our teams are trained for IN THEATER DOOR DELIVERY and on base service in Europe. If you are shipping critical shipments for DOD, Defense Contractors, GSA and Civil Agencies to any point in the world Mainfreight can fully support you About Mainfreight Mainfreight began its operations in Auckland, New Zealand, in 1978, soon growing into New Zealand’s most extensive freight network. A shift in focus, in 1984, saw the opening of the first Mainfreight International branch. Investment in Australian operations began in 1989 driven by a desire to treat New Zealand and Australia as a single market. Mainfreight’s presence in Australia continued to expand through both acquisition and branch proliferation across strategic locations. Mainfreight became global in 1999 with the acquisition of businesses in both Asia and the United States. Full ownership of our Asian operations was completed in 2007 and today Mainfreight has several branches operating out of China. Expansion further continued in America with the purchase of Target Logistics Services in 2007. Mainfreight USA offers extensive services across the supply chain. In 2012 Mainfreight acquired the business of Wim Bosman Group providing further opportunities to expand Mainfreight’s international global network with branches throughout Europe. The Mainfreight Culture “Special people, Special company” embodies Mainfreight and its unique culture. We have developed a style of doing business successful not only in New Zealand, but around the world. Mainfreight is built on a 100-year vision. All decisions are made on the basis that we will be here for another 100 years. This view shapes our approach to recruitment and training of team members, customer and supplier relationships and growth strategies. As a customer of a Mainfreight Group company, you can rely on: • An “anything is possible” attitude • A commitment to delivering your freight consignments on time and damage-free, and to promptly and honestly resolve issues when they arise • Improvement in service through reinvestment in people, facilities, equipment and technologies. We promote our people from within, and encourage innovative, non-hierarchical and decisive outlooks. Our teams regard each other as family and often share mealtimes together. At the same time, we are focused on performance—every branch reports weekly results that are available for all team members to see. Individual responsibility and accountability for quality are reinforced. Key performance indicators important to our customers, like error rates, are linked to team members’ bonuses. All Mainfreight branches have quality boards and are internally audited every six months.

A Transportation Revolution – The Road Not Needed Hybrid Enterprises is the exclusive worldwide reseller of Lockheed Martin’s Hybrid Airships. Heavier than air and designed for stable ground operations, the Lockheed Martin Hybrid Airship was developed for cargo operations in remote locations. Using an innovative air cushion landing system (ACLS) the Lockheed Martin Hybrid Airship can takeoff and land on unimproved surfaces including sand, snow, ice and water. With comparatively low carbon emissions, low noise and the ability to eliminate costly infrastructure, the Lockheed Martin Hybrid Airship will significantly reduce the cost of transportation and the environmental impact for remote operations, and will enable the launch of new projects previously thought inaccessible.

eginning with a crazy plan hatched by a suspect prince, and an even crazier reliance on the word of the Nazis, Operation Chowhound was devised. Between May 1 and May 8, 1945, 2,268 military units flown by the USAAF, dropped food to 3.5 million starving Dutch civilians in German-occupied Holland. It took raw courage to fly on Operation Chowhound, as American aircrews never knew when the German AAA might open fire on them or if Luftwaffe fighters might jump them.

DC, Tampa, Atlanta, and Jacksonville, with several others soon to follow. In June, I will be on the West coast to meet with NDTAers from the San Joaquin Valley and San Francisco Bay Area chapters. Getting around to the chapters is a great way for me to hear firsthand what is going on in our industry so that I can be a more effective spokesman. I welcome your ideas to improve our Association and make it stronger. Finally, don’t forget about Nation Defense Transportation week (11-17 May) and National Transportation Day (15 May). This year’s theme is “Veterans in Transportation – Still Serving” focusing on the efforts to hire transitioning service members in the logistics/transportation industry. I ask you to strongly consider hiring a veteran for any position you may have available in the near future; they will enhance your organization. Yours aye, Mark H. Buzby

Best Practices: The CEO Team’s Perspective.” Chairman Ted Rybeck led the discussion, and Mr. Marc Boyle of Boyle Transportation provided insights from a CEO perspective. Deputy Commander USTRANSCOM VADM Andy Brown expressed his strong support for the formation of the committee as a venue to build situational awareness and develop stronger working relationships with industry as we deal with the very real threats to our IT networks. Follow-on face to face conferences will occur this month and another this summer. I strongly encourage all of our membership to be a part of the cyber conversation if for no other reason than to stay informed in this rapidly evolving area. Watch for additional details and dates. My calendar is filling up quickly as I begin to make my way around to visit as many of our active chapters as I can. Thus far I have met with NDTA members in Washington
them, they would have no chance to bail out if their B-17s were hit--and yet, over eight days, 120,000 German troops kept their word, and never fired on the American bombers. As they flew, grateful Dutch civilians spelled out “Thanks Boys” in the tulip fields below. Many Americans who flew in Operation Chowhound would claim it was the best thing they did in the war. In this gripping narrative, author Stephen Dando-Collins takes the reader into the rooms where Operation Chowhound was born, into the aircraft flying the mission, and onto the ground in the Netherlands with the civilians who so desperately needed help. James Bond creator Ian Fleming, Hollywood actress Audrey Hepburn, as well as Roosevelt, Eisenhower, and Churchill all play a part in this story, creating a compelling, narrative read. DTJ
