Operational research : flexible response to the needs of Canadian defence through the postwar years / by G.R. Lindsey.: D68-13/1-1980E-PDF
"Operational research and systems analysis have developed to meet the changing needs of DND through the postwar years.

Since then there has been an increasing demand for analysis of logistics and manpower, and for research into strategic and economic problems.
