DOD has increasingly been involved with other agencies in complex humanitarian operations. Military logisticians are faced with the fast pace of events and insufficient and inaccurate information. Time is critical in getting relief supplies to affected areas. DOD has the resources and know-how to be an invaluable interagency partner in these efforts to project the best of American values. The experience of U.S. European Command in bringing relief in the Georgia crisis of 2008 provides lessons learned about the logistics aspect of effective U.S. Government responses to humanitarian crises.
