  12-64. Motor transport becomes essential as supplies are moved forward from
  railheads, field depots, or supply points to combat units. After the relocation
  of supplies from national-level depots, the OPFOR distributes them within
  OSCs primarily by truck. Within an OSC, the heaviest truck transport
  requirements are primarily above the division level.2
  SUPPLY AND EVACUATION ROUTES
  12-65. Within their AORs, OSCs establish and improve supply and
  evacuation routes, using the network of military roads, and maintain them in
  passable condition. Staff responsibility for this is shared by the OSC
  resources officer and the chief of infrastructure management at that level.
  Engineer units at OSC level may form road and bridge construction and
  repair groups to prepare and maintain these and other movement routes. At
  national level, the Strategic Integration Directorate (SID) also organizes civil
  engineering and construction efforts required to sustain military actions.
  During wartime, civil engineering units from the Ministry of the Interior, as
  directed by the SID, may be employed at the national and/or OSC levels.
  Employed on an area basis, these units are responsible for the upkeep of
  supply and evacuation routes and for repair of battle-damaged roads and
  bridges. The OSC chief of infrastructure management must coordinate and
  prioritize the route construction and maintenance functions of both civil and
  combat engineers within his AOR.
  PERSONNEL
  12-66. The MOD establishes policy, assigns responsibilities, and prescribes
  procedures for personnel readiness issues as they apply to all members and
  components (standing forces, reserve, and militia) of the armed services. The
  Manpower and Readiness Department under the MOD Chief of Logistics is
  responsible for the administration and management of the personnel support
  system.
  12-67. During peacetime, the State may be unable to fully man the military
  with critical professional and technical specialists to maintain an elaborate
  support structure. Thus, the OPFOR may experience a shortage of doctors,
  engineers, computer programmers, electronic technicians, and other support
  professionals. Once the country has been mobilized, however, these critical
  professionals are detailed into the military structure to augment existing
  professionals.
  12-68. The State considers people as one of the assets most critical to the
  success of any military operation. Thorough planning and efficient personnel
  support directly influence mission readiness. Therefore, the MOD requires
  each of the armed services to resource personnel requirements in a timely
  manner to support operational requirements. The State views “personnel
  support” as all activities associated with assignment of personnel against
  authorized billets and validated individual augmentation requirements, as
  well as those administrative activities associated with personnel programs
  within a command.

  tical group (DTG) and brigade tactical group (BTG), unless specifically stated otherwise.
