The Army G-4 - A Brief History
Throughout the past century, the U.S. Army has successfully managed and carried out its logistics mission to sustain Soldiers and units in peace and war even as the scope, complexity, and difficulty of that mission have increased dramatically. From a small, perennially under strength, and largely constabulary force that had to worry as much about supplies of horse fodder as ammunition stocks, the U.S. Army has grown into a mature service capable of rapidly deploying thousands of Soldiers around the globe, arming them with an array of cutting-edge weaponry and motorized vehicles, and supporting them for years at a time. Even though the character and management of U.S. Army logistics have changed over time and the nation’s evolving strategic interests have changed the demands it made of the Army, one thing has not changed. Senior Defense and Army leaders have relied on the logisticians serving at the service’s highest level— the Office of the Deputy Chief of Staff of the Army, G–4—to ensure that every Soldier deployed to a faraway forest or desert has food to eat, a reliable rifle in hand, and the best equipment available.
