Objective requirements in building military logistics force 1.1.1. Position and role of military logistics force Logistics forces have an enormous role in shaping and decisive combat power, military victory. This big role is expressed as below: Firstly, logistics force is part of the People's Army of Vietnam, contributing directly form of military power Secondly, direct logistics force organized and successful implementation of military logistics a face of military activities, elements and decisions combat power and military victory 1.1.2. Situation of Vietnam revolution after the general offensive and uprising in 1968 Conspiracy, new tricks of American imperialism and the Saigon regime Significant victory of military strategy and people of Vietnam in general offensive and uprising Tet 1968, forcing US imperialism to shift war strategy, constantly bombarding North, perform "nonAmericanized" and "Vietnamize the war" in the South, to withdraw US troops, but remained south of colonialism orbit of them Nichxon maximum use of the military power of the United States, combined with political expediency, diplomatic cunning, trying to gain strength, to isolate and stifle the resistance of the people of Vietnam.

Thus, logistics force has grown in strength, rose to accomplish the task of ensuring the logistics for 21 the army, for the Armed Forces to fight to win completely, completely liberating the South reunification 22 Chapter 3 REVIEW AND EXPERIENCE 3.1 Reviews on the leadership process of the Military Party committee in building logistics force (1969 1975) 3.1.1. Advantages, reasons Advantages Firstly on the policy makers, the Military Party committee has always thoroughly grasp politics, military, Party and tasks of the Armed Forces, the Army, to appreciate the situation of undertakings proposed right leadership, bright created to contribute to clarify some issues fundamental theoretical construct logistics force, do lodestar guiding all operations Secondly, in terms of direct to implement, the Military Party committee has regularly practical, timely closely directing the activities building characteristics logistics force suit the situation and tasks of each agency or unit, close to the object Thirdly, regarding the practical result, under the leadership of the Military Party committee, logistics force has not stopped growing, successfully completed the task, making a worthy contribution to the great victory of the army, the people of Vietnam. Specifically: has built a team of officials, employees and soldiers logistics appropriate quantity and quality to meet mission requirements in all circumstances; construction, are consolidating offices apparatus command, complete logistics steering, full military uniform; built system of material and technical base of logistics increasingly meet the needs of growing war and have intensified in the south a large logistics force duty battlefield logistics achievements on decisions logistics force comprehensively strong, successful completion of the task Reason Achieving this success is due to: The military's Party has always had strong political dignity, independence, autonomy and creativity in building leadership logistics force; Party organization system in logistics force always clean, strong, nuclear is the political unit; always well promoted traditional elements in building logistics force; logistics in the resistance war against American invasion to protect the country of Vietnam's people is the logistics of justice wars 3.1.2. Limitations, causes Limitations Firstly, regarding the policy planning, awareness of present Military Party committee not comprehensive, not caught up with the development of practical situation posed. Specifically: awareness motto of the Military Party 23 committee in building logistics force not comprehensive, not to mention the content build logistics force elite; the Military Party committee awareness about the need to organize a task force to ensure military technology and defense production not keep up the development of the situation Secondly, regarding directing and organizing the implementation of some aspects of the work has not been close. Leadership to build logistics force in the resistance war against American invasion to protect the country from 1969 to 1975, on a number of activities, lacks close, prolonged weakness slowly overcome, such as the management of technical infrastructure is weak; observance of the principles organizational staffing agency logistics force in some units lax; promulgate regulations on the responsibilities and duties, order, work regime is not tight, lacks timeliness Thirdly, regarding the practical result, the quality of logistics force is still partly not comprehensive Organizations logistics force unstable, irrational, payroll is cumbersome, formal orderly unclear, inconsistent. Working qualifications of logistics personnel is low compared to the requirements set forth Technical facilities for logistics increased but considering the development requirements of the war, the missing and weak So, the ability to ensure the logistics of the logistics force for the army and armed forces not fully satisfy demand for drinking and fighting Causes In the leadership to build logistics force, the innovative thinking of the Military Party committee also face delay, not caught up practical requirements posed. Some organizations are not strictly close to the party resolutions, directives and orders of the executive committee, the superiors Level theoretical knowledge of Marxism Leninism, line and revolutionary duty of some party are incomplete. Observe the principle of collective leadership coupled with the head of division of implementation where they become confused. The qualification training in all aspects of party committees do not adequately or organization buildup in some agencies, no serious basis. The inspection organizations perform sometimes, in some places not close, lacking concrete Construction logistics force in Vietnam economic conditions poor, backward; fierce enemy raiding; climate, extreme weather the problem that is causing many difficulties and loss, a great influence on the result of construction and development of logistics force in war 3.2. Experience 3.2.1. Regularly maintain and strengthen the Party's leadership for logistics force 24 The correct leadership of the Party is the leading factor in deciding the maturity and the military victory, the logistics force Maintaining and strengthening the Party's leadership, which is directly against logistics force is objective necessity. Practices maintain and strengthen the leadership of the Military Party committee in building logistics force in the resistance war against American invasion to protect the country from 1969 to 1975 in particular has become a large experience in building leadership logistics force. To maintain and strengthen the Party's leadership, the practical process of leadership building logistics force (1969 1975) specifies must implement fully the principle of the absolute leadership of the Party, directly in all aspects of logistics force; constantly improving leadership capacity and combativeness of Party organizations at all levels in logistics force; often build strong party organizations, comprehensive care for education, training cadres and party members at all levels in logistics force 3.2.2 Always caring to build strong logistics staff to meet the requirements of war Logistics staff is a staff department of the Party, State and army are selected, assigned to work in organizational systems military logistics, assumed the leadership, command and management various operational aspects of logistics, the core force to organize and perform logistics in offices, premises, logistic units in the army. Construction logistics staff with the qualifications and capability to meet the requirements is the key task, determines the growth and maturity of logistics force victory in the resistance war against American invasion to protect the country in general, from 1969 to 1975 in particular. Practice leadership team building logistics officers of the Military Party committee in the American invasion to protect the country from 1969 to 1975drawn the following fundamental issues: mastering and strictly observe the way the Party's personnel work in construction Construction logistics staff; in building staff to better solve the relationship between quantity and quality, between fighting and building, between maintaining the quality of the staff make children; strengthening the leadership of the committees and the responsibilities of the heads of all levels of personnel work 3.2.3. Based on the people and mobilize and organize the people to participate in building the logistics force Forces military logistics is the logistics force serving righteous war, civil war, the entire population, comprehensive.
