The probable origin of the term logistic is the Greek logistikos, meaning ‘skilled
in calculating’. It was initially developed in the context of military activities in the late
18th and early 19th centuries and it launched from the military logistics of World War II. It
was initially a military activity concerned with getting soldiers and munitions to the
battlefront in time for flight. Military typically incorporate the supply, movement and
quartering of troops in a set. The main background of its development is that the
recession of America in the 1950s caused the industrial to place importance on goods
circulations. Now it is seen as an integral part of the modern production process.
