Operativ logistik under operation iraqi freedom : en teorikonsumerande fallstudie

Sammanfattning: Despite Operation Iraqi Freedoms operational success, many reports revealed that the operational  logistics were under considerable pressure. Nonetheless, it did not fail completely, however the operational logistics from OIF had a lot of lessons to learn. This is evident in a number of articles, which have a practical way of viewing the issues at hand. This paper analyses the operational logistics with a more theoretical approach, and incorporates Moshe Kress seven properties for operational logistics. The result shows that the operational logistics was good enough, even though it lacked a few of the operational properties. This is thought to be because of an inbalance between the properties, which can further explain why the operation was a success whilst the operational logistics was just adequate.
