据美国军方认为,在现代战争中,作战部队的物资消耗比二战时增加数倍,这对武器弹药和后勤补给的运输提出了更高的要求。有鉴于此,美国运输司令部(又称联合运输司令部)于4月15日正式成立。该司令部由美国空军上将杜·卡西迪任司令,下辖空军军事空运司令部、海军海运司令部、陆军军事运输管理司令部,以及为军队提供服务的计划航空运输局之类的商业运输部门。该司令部是按照美国国防部长温伯格的提议和参谋长联席会议制定的计划而设立的。其主要任务是:在和平时期,制定军事运输计划,为战争做准备;一旦发生战事,统一指挥和控制陆海空三军的运输部队以及将商业运输工具转为军用。
According to the U.S. military, in the modern warfare, the combat units’ supplies have increased several times over World War II, putting higher demands on the transport of arms and ammunition and logistics supplies. In view of this, the United States Transportation Command (also known as the Joint Transport Command) was officially established on April 15. The command was commanded by U.S. Air Force Admiral Du Cassidy under the command of the Air Force’s Military Air Command, Naval Maritime Command, Army Military Transportation Command, and the planned Air Transport Agency to provide services to the military Transport sector. The headquarters was established on the proposal of Secretary of Defense Weinberger and the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Its main tasks are: to formulate plans for military transport in times of peace and prepare for the war; and in the event of a war, unify the command and control of the transport forces of the Armed Forces, the Armed Forces, and the commercial means of transport to the military.
