Supply & Logistics in the North Dakota Army National Guard
Guard Soldiers need food, fuel, parts and supplies, so our logistics specialists provide them all—and make any mission possible. Supply experts are masters at acquisition, tracking and distribution, overseeing asset storage and delivery. Fuel professionals drive tanker trucks to forward troops to keep fighting vehicles and helicopters on the move.
When natural disasters strike, these specialists coordinate and deliver aid to their communities, at times when it’s needed most. And because logistics careers transcend the military, Guard supply experts gain skills and experience highly valued by numerous civilian industries.
