Description
A report by the US DoD's Inspector General released earlier this year brought into question the adequacy of training provided to civilian personnel who would directly support ‘surge' sealift missions.
The report, published in July, acknowledged that sealift is how the US transports most of its military equipment overseas. In the majority of scenarios, that movement is conducted by Military Sealift Command (MSC), which operates around 125 civilian-crewed ships that replenish US Navy vessels, conduct specialised missions, strategically preposition combat cargo around the world, and move military equipment and supplies used by deployed forces and coalition partners.
