Jones Commission - DOD Study of the Military Commissary System. Volume 1. Study Report.

摘要

The Department of Defense Study of Military Commissaries was initiated Mar 31, 1989 by the Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense (Resource Management & Support), Mr. David J. Berteau. The study responds to a Congressional request that military commissaries be thoroughly and comprehensively analyzed. The study was to conduct an unrestrained baseline reassessment to be used to reduce the systems' dependence on appropriations and in the development of policies that will move the commissary system forward in an orderly and consistent manner into the next century. This study is submitted to fulfill this requirement. The study organization included a steering group chaired by Lieutenant General Donald W. Jones, Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense (Military Manpower & Personnel Policy) with Deputy Assistant Secretary and flag/general officer representation from the Office of the Secretary of Defense and the Military Departments. The steering group received assistance from a Technical Advisory Group composed of the four commissary system commanders. The steering group provided executive direction to a study staff composed of representatives from the Service's headquarters staffs, the commissary systems, and technical support agencies such as the Defense Personnel Support Center, Army and Air Force Exchange Service and Military Traffic Management Command. This structure brought together the most knowledgeable individuals in these organizations under a single oversight body and provided an effective way to approach and resolve the complex issues under review.
