Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. While many books have been written on the Falklands War, this is the first to focus on the vital aspect of logistics. The challenges were huge; the lack of preparation time; the urgency; the huge distances involved; the need to requisition ships from trade to name but four. After a brief discussion of events leading to Argentina's invasion the book describes in detail the rush to re-organise and deploy forces, despatch a large task force, the innovative solutions needed to sustain the Task Force, the vital staging base at Ascension Island, the in-theatre resupply, the set-backs and finally the restoring of order after victory. Had the logistics plan failed, victory would have been impossible and humiliation inevitable, with no food for the troops, no ammunition for the guns, no medical support for casualties etc. The lessons learnt have never been more important with increasing numbers of out-of-area operations required in remote trouble spots at short notice. The Falklands experience is crucial for the education of new generations of military planners and fascinating for military buffs and this book fills an important gap. AUTHOR: Major General Kenneth L Privratsky served in the US Infantry in Vietnam before becoming a logistics specialist. He taught at West Point and commanded organizations supplying US Forces worldwide. He was a military fellow at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University. In civilian life he was an executive in the ocean transportation industry. He writes and lectures regularly. He lives in Alaska. First in-depth study of the ingenious logistics plan for OP CORPORATE, written by a highly experienced and senior military logistician. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Book
Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The first account in English of this war winning asset, denied to Hitler. At the outbreak of the Second World War, Britain, desperately short of merchant shipping, turned to the Norwegians who agreed to loan several hundred of its modern cargo and tanker ships. In early 1940 when Hitler invaded Norway, both the British and Germans rushed to seize the remainder of the fleet. King Haakon VII and his government, now fleeing from Nazi occupation, refused to relinquish control of this vital national asset. Instead, they nationalized the fleet and established the Norwegian Shipping and Trade Mission. Nicknamed Nortraship, it became overnight the largest shipping company the world had seen with a thousand ships and offices on six continents. Generously made available to Great Britain, it became a priceless Allied asset without which victory over Germany would arguably have been impossible. By the end of the war, about half Nortraship's fleet had been lost to enemy action. The Saga of Norway's Merchant Fleet in the Second World War is a superbly researched addition to Second World War history being the first detailed account in English of Norway's critical contribution to the Allies. As well as telling this little-known but hugely significant story, the author covers the controversies that developed and persist into the present day. AUTHOR: Major General (Retired) Kenneth L. Privratsky served in the US Army infantry in Vietnam before becoming a logistician. A graduate of the Airborne and Ranger Schools, he gained multiple academic degrees, an honorary doctorate, and taught at West Point. He served as a National Security Affairs Fellow at the Hoover Institution of War, Revolution and Peace at Stanford University. The Defense Logistics Agency inducted him into its Hall of Fame and recently named a new headquarters building in his honour. His work Logistics in the Falklands War (Pen and Sword Military, 2014) has been reprinted numerous times and is recommended US military reading. A keen fisherman, he and his wife, Kathy, live mainly in Alaska but travel widely. 32 b/w illustrations The first account in English of this war winning asset, denied to Hitler. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
