Does Logistics Eat Strategy for Lunch?

An interesting review of two books about World War II entitled: "When Logistics Beats Strategy". The review states:

"Disciples and devotees of "strategic thinking" might find both books humbling. They should. In wartime, logistics eats strategy for lunch"

Given how many companies develop "War rooms" and discuss business using "going to war" metaphors it is fascinating how many of them refuse to learn the importance of logistics and the role logistics has played in the big battles of our time.

I wrote about this in previous installments about the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF).
