Identify major areas of emphasis for supply sergeants for IDT and AT training

Establish guidelines for assisting supply sergeants to prepare, anticipate and execute supply functions during unit training periods.

Your success will be dependent on three general concepts:

Preparation

Anticipation

Execution

Logistics in general, is geared towards identifying the supply implications of future actions and preparing yourself to support those actions.

Preparation is VITAL to mission success

Look ahead at future training and “predict” or anticipate what requirements you will need to provide.

Initiative-Don’t wait to be told what to do

Leaders may not have the experience or knowledge about logistical support and they will be looking to you for that expertise

Execution will be a success if you have performed the prior steps correctly
