Logistics is key to winning any engagement. The Army has done an excellent job of logistics management and innovation and continues to push the other Services to do the same. There is much to be said for coordinated Service Logistics, and I think the Army is strongly in favor of this. It is already being done in the medical field; I suspect since I recently retired it’s probably spreading to other fields as well. If she is responsible for consolidated/coordinated Service logistics, then she’ll need those 4 stars to go toe-to-toe with her male operational counterparts.
Congrats to the General—I’m glad you’re breaking the glass ceiling! Esp. in the logistics field (as a former boxkicker, I know!), which has always been a good ole boys club.
Thank you for your service!
