They need to be soldiers to understand the ebb and flow of the conflict situation they are in.
Whilst a civilian contract may be supplying the goods/servcies it most likely won't deliver them right at the front line where it matters most.
At the highest levels military logisticians and their civilian counterparts do however work very closely together

No, however the specific needs of a military operation, whether it be offensive or civil support, requires an in depth knowledge of group and unit requirements specific to the operational field.
This type of knowledge is most easily resourced from the military field or ex-military. Any skill can be taught but this area is so different to business models the extreme events military action provokes are not catered for, as they are not economic in the civilian world.
Supply the wrong parts to Ford and you may have the costs of re-supply and contractual breach to consider; supply the wrong kit to a REME recovery unit and they don't come back!
