Navy Readiness: Actions Needed to Maintain Viable Surge Sealift and Combat Logistics Fleets : Government Accountability Office (GAO) , August , 2017
From the report: "The readiness of the surge sealift and combat logistics fleets has trended downward since 2012. For example, GAO found that mission-limiting equipment casualties—incidents of degraded or out-of-service equipment—have increased over the past 5 years, and maintenance periods are running longer than planned, indicating declining materiel readiness across both fleets."
