Sustain the Fight transforms military logistics from administrative support into strategic warfare. This combat-focused manual shatters the dangerous illusion that logistics officers are “support personnel” operating safely in rear areas, revealing instead their proper role as lethality enablers whose decisions determine victory or defeat in modern warfare.Through four intensive phases, the book addresses the most critical vulnerability in American military preparedness. While logistics officers studied peacetime procedures, adversaries spent decades analyzing U.S. supply dependencies to weaponize them for strategic advantage. Enemy forces now target logistics networks with the same precision previously reserved for capitals, conducting cyberattacks, space-based surveillance, and precision strikes against fuel depots, ammunition storage, and digital systems.The manual develops “logistics warriors” capable of sustaining multi-domain operations when everything goes wrong simultaneously—when cyberattacks corrupt every digital system, when GPS is jammed, when supply routes are interdicted, and when enemy forces specifically hunt logistics personnel for elimination. Each chapter opens with high-intensity combat scenarios, integrates mathematical frameworks for tactical decision-making, and provides immediately applicable Standard Operating Procedures.Key transformations include mastering mission command when communications fail, fighting and winning in cyberspace while sustaining physical operations, building teams that can operate under direct fire, and conducting offensive logistics operations that turn enemy advantages into friendly opportunities. The book prepares officers for warfare spanning from cyberspace to the edge of space against threats involving artificial intelligence, quantum computing, and biological warfare. This is logistics warfare for the 21st century, where warriors sustain the fight regardless of what enemies deploy against them.

Captain David Wallace spent twenty-four years transforming Army logistics, from Light Wheeled Vehicle Mechanic to Bronze Star recipient in the 82nd Airborne Division, 2nd BCT, 407th BSB, and as Field Maintenance Company Commander in Iraq (2011–12). As a Joint Readiness Training Center Observer-Controller (2012–14), he documented the integration failures that resulted in the deaths of simulated soldiers and the techniques that enabled success. He published his first observations in Army Sustainment in 2014. His perspective expanded through strategic deployment roles. As the Contracting Officer Representative in Kuwait (2015-2016), he managed the most significant U.S. government contract to date—Base Operations and Security Support Services. As Port Operations Supervisor in Jacksonville, Florida (2016–17), he oversaw a $560 million maintenance contract supporting waterborne distribution operations, demonstrating that sustainment principles transcend service boundaries. Since retiring in 2017, Wallace has validated these military principles through commercial supply chain consulting. He holds an MBA in Supply Chain Management from Westford University College, is an ASQ Certified Quality Auditor. His professional journey—from enlisted mechanic to company commander to international consultant—provides him the rare combination of tactical experience, operational observation, and strategic perspective.
