Rhumb Lines
Naval Logistics Integration
“The essence of flexibility is in the mind of the commander; the substance of flexibility is in logistics.” -- Rear Adm. Henry E. Eccles, Logistics in the National Defense, 1959
“We finally broke the code on logistics; working with the Navy our equipment stayed above 94% during the deployment.” -- Brig. Gen. Ronald Johnson, Commanding Officer, 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit (2003-2007)
Rhumb
Lines is a weekly update for Flag and General Officers
and senior civilians prepared by the Chief of Information
for the Secretary of the Navy, CNO and Commandant. It gives
naval leaders the situational awareness and factual information
they need to effectively communicate the priorities of the
Navy Department. Adm. Vern Clark called Rhumb Lines his
principal "alignment" tool to allow a diverse and
dispersed cadre of naval leaders to speak with one voice
on critical issues. Navy League has been given permission
to share Rhumb Lines with you, our members, so that each of
you can remain similarly informed.
