About

Naval logistics is the sine qua non of our combat power and is the bridge that connects our nation's industrial base to forward- deployed naval forces. Whether appearing in the form of effective peacetime forward presence or decisive power projection, readiness and the ability to sustain such operations are the hallmarks of our Navy-Marine Corps team-and both readiness and sustainability hinge upon logistic sup- port. Certainly, effective logistic support will not always guarantee success; lack of such support, however, inevitably will bring failure. Naval Doctrine Publication (NDP) 4, Naval Logistics, is the fourth in the series of capstone publications that articulate naval doctrine. Every naval professional must understand its contents.
