- W872593175 abstract "Major General Frank Ross of the U.S. Army's Office of the Quartermaster General justly praised the men carrying out the difficult job of keeping American forces in the Mediterranean supplied. Drawing on their experiences with motorized transportation in the First World War, the men of the U.S. Army Quartermaster Corps (QMC) spent the interwar years developing doctrine for motorized logistics, creating organizations to carry out that doctrine and designing training programs that could turn civilians into truckers. Whilst three factors received severe tests in the Mediterranean theater during the Second World War, the QMC showed that their interwar thinking, generally speaking, proved successful in supporting American combat operations which, in turn, contributed to Allied victory. This chapter highlights that, the operational experience of the Mediterranean Theater of Operations during the Second World War essentially validated the doctrine, organization and training that had been developed by the QMC before 1941. Keywords: American combat operations; First World War; Major General Frank Ross; Mediterranean theater; motorized logistics; U.S. Army Quartermaster Corps (QMC)" @default.
