Background of the Central Logistic Base
Central Logistic Base continues the tradition of the 608th Rear Base, whose roots date back to 1953 when the Import Acquisition Base was established in Zagreb. To adapt its structure to the former Yugoslav People's Army, it was reorganized as the Acquisition Base in November 1961. On November 20, 1961, it was restructured into the Acquisition Base with the HQ in Pančevo.
Since 1987 it existed as the Technical Supplies Base of the Federal Ministry of National Defence. Finally, on November 16, 1992, the 608th Rear Base of the General Staff, Armed Forces of Yugoslavia was established with the purpose of strategic reserves storage and echelonment.
The establishment of the Central Logistic Base on December 15, 2006, merged all storage capabilities of the Serbian Armed Forces.
The Day of the Central Logistic Base is 16th November, when 608th Rear Base was established.
