United States Transportation Command's ability to project and sustain military forces and equipment anywhere in the world with overwhelming speed and efficiency is unmatched, and ensures America's ability to influence events on a global scale in support of the National Security Strategy. Through superb collaboration and coordination, our component commands Air Mobility Command, Military Sealift Command, and Military Traffic Management Command (renamed Military Surface Deployment and Distribution Command in 2004) consistently deliver the right people and equipment, in the proper sequence, to the exact place, at the precise moment. Our talented team of military, civilian, and commercial partner professionals are the best our nation has to offer. While directing, scheduling, or operating the Defense Transportation System's planes, trains, trucks, and ships, these miracle workers achieved outstanding operational results in the recent Operations ENDURING FREEDOM and IRAQI FREEDOM conflicts moving almost three million tons of cargo and more than one million troops from Sep 2001 to date. Our current processes and capabilities are the world's gold standard for logistics and transportation and we are not resting on our laurels. We have implemented dramatic organizational changes at the headquarters and component levels and on 16 Sep 2003, the Secretary of Defense designated United States Transportation Command (USTRANSCOM) as Distribution Process Owner (DPO) for Department of Defense (DOD). As DPO, USTRANSCOM is tasked with integrating peace and wartime logistics into one seamless, synchronized process. This designation provides flexible, reliable, responsive support to the warfighter from factory to foxhole. The DPO serves as the single entity to direct and supervise the execution of the strategic distribution system. We are not attacking this alone. Success hinges on the collaborative efforts involving the Services, combatant commands, and logistics partners.
