 Commentary: DLA’s historic, current support covers 14 of 15 executive departments 

                    FORT BELVOIR, Va. —                                                DLA has long been a whole-of-government provider and has supplied all but one of the nation’s 15 executive departments.            

Feb. 20, 2024

 Commentary: Foreign military sales reflect national policy, expand customer base 

                    FORT BELVOIR, Va. —                                                DLA has long provided goods and services to allied nations. From NATO cataloging in the 1960s to today’s worldwide crises, the agency has used the Foreign Military Sales program to advance national policy and realize economies of scale.             

Dec. 26, 2023

 Commentary: DLA provides global support in 2023 

                    FORT BELVOIR, Va.  —                                                In most years, events force DLA to focus on one region. Not so in 2023, when actual and potential conflict involved it in six of seven geographic commands.            

Oct. 23, 2023

 Commentary: World War II developmental, formative for first 5 DLA directors 

                    FORT BELVOIR, Va. —                                                When the Defense Supply Agency became the Defense Logistics Agency in 1977, it marked the end of an era. For a decade and a half, agency directors had based organizational and operational decisions on their World War II experiences.            

Aug. 28, 2023

 Commentary: DLA’s support for the Abrams as involved, critical as ever 

                    FORT BELVOIR, Va. —                                                DLA Historian Colin Williams chronicles the agency's long and storied relationship with the Abrams tank, which it helped develop in the 1970s.            

Aug. 1, 2023

 Commentary: McNamara cagey, equivocal about reasons for Battle Creek move 

                    FORT BELVOIR, Va.  —                                                DLA's historian explores the reasons why Army Lt. Gen. Andrew T. McNamara moved cataloging, standardization and utilization programs that were part of the Defense Logistics Services Center from Washington, D.C., to Battle Creek, Michigan.             

July 11, 2023

 Commentary: Director visits form, enhance DLA Europe & Africa 

                    KAISERSLAUTERN, Germany —                                                Senior leader authority is most potent when exercised face-to-face. Put simply, things get done when the boss visits. It’s therefore not surprising the organizational history of Defense Logistics Agency Europe, now DLA Europe & Africa, can be told through DLA directors’ trips to the continent.            

June 21, 2023

 Commentary: First agency director sketches, foretells growth in commodity management 

                    FORT BELVOIR, Va. —                                                Before his tour as first director of the Defense Supply Agency ended, Army Lt. Gen. Andrew T. McNamara shared his ideas for improving military logistics with Defense Secretary Robert S. McNamara.            

April 11, 2023

 Fiscal 2022 history report details agency’s latest efforts 

                    FORT BELVOIR, Va. —                                                Rapid response and technology transformation are among themes of DLA's fiscal 2022 historical report published early this month.

 DLA director’s career mirrors growing opportunities for women 

                    FORT BELVOIR, Va. —                                                Despite a desire to move past the “distraction” of being the first woman in any military role, DLA Director Navy Vice Adm. Michelle Skubic’s career has put her in places that summon attention.
