What the hell are Navy boys doing flying Boeing 737s? That's kinda like an Air Force dude steering a battleship.

The Navy’s requirement for Navy Unique Fleet Essential Airlift (NUFEA), stems from the constantly changing, “moving target” nature of deployed naval forces. These forces, typically the first to arrive on-scene during a crisis situation, and the last to leave, require a flexible, reliable, on -demand logistics chain. When ships and airwings are deployed, their warfighting capabilities are directly related to the condition of their weapons systems and personnel. The importance of this has long been recognized, although not completely understood. As Fleet Admiral King remarked to a staff officer in 1942, “I don’t know what the hell this ‘logistics’ is that Marshall is always talking about, but I want some of it.”
Navy Unique Fleet Essential Airlift is complementary to and does not compete with, nor is duplicative of, Air Mobility Command (AMC). AMC is responsible for providing intertheater, or strategic airlift, and does an outstanding job in that arena. However, lack of flexibility in the AMC approach to scheduling severely limits airlift accessibility when meeting unforeseen and emergent Navy demands.
The mission of maritime air logistics is important, demanding, and unrelenting. To many, the mission may seem easy. But it just doesn’t happen, someone has to make it happen, and the talented and dedicated professionals of the Fleet Logistics Support Wing have made it happen for over 25 years. While often tagged with the label of “no warfare specialty,” the personnel of FLSW are in fact a cross section of every aviation community, and represent the finest from every aviation warfare specialty. This diversity in backgrounds is a source of strength, insight, and experience few airwings in the Navy can claim.Last edited by Tony G; May 12, 2012, 11:06 AM.Benny Blades~"If you break down this team man for man, we have talent to compare with any team."Comment
