<p>United States Army Special Operations Forces (ARSOF) transformation included significant changes and additions to the support units assigned to ARSOF. Amidst all of the structural and personnel additions and changes ARSOF cannot completely transform without considering the human dimension. The human dimension is important because ARSOF missions cover the spectrum of conflict and right individual is necessary to understand and logistically support the diverse capabilities of ARSOF. One way to consider the human dimension is through the Special Operations Forces (SOF) Truths. The SOF Truths can be applied to the tenets of the Army's approved change analysis construct DOTMLPF (doctrine organization training materiel leadership personnel and facilities). Doctrine training leadership and personnel are the most important tenets of the DOTMLPF for ARSOF logistics transformation.

Consistent analysis of doctrine by ARSOF focused training curriculum and courses for the ARSOF logistician and the selection of leaders and personnel that volunteered or were specifically recruited by ARSOF are the way to best consider the human dimension fulfill the SOF Truths and complete ARSOF logistics transformation.</p><p>This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
