Article Abstract:
US Army Chief of Staff Eric Shinseki's New Army Vision calls for the deployment of a combat brigade for war or peacekeeping purposes with 96 hours, within 120 hours for a division, and within 30 days for five divisions. Shinseki's plan also calls for the implementation of a service- wide fail-safe/zero defect electronically-driven single-system that can identify, locate and distribute items quickly to soldiers on the battlefield.
