Okay, since now I am interested in military logistics, I
decided to look it up myself:
Two cracking books on the subject, if you're interested:
"Supplying War" by Martin van Creveld, and "Lifeblood of War" by
Julian Thompson.
IMO the best book for learning about 'real world' military
logistics is the chapter on the subject in the book: 'How To Make
War' by James Dunnigan.



Okay, that I've heard of.
