National Defense Advisory Commission

The National Defense Advisory Commission (NDAC) was a U.S. government agency established during World War II to coordinate and advise on industrial production and resource allocation for national defense. Its goal was to efficiently organize industries, labor, and materials needed for wartime efforts, ensuring the military and allied forces received necessary supplies. NDAC worked closely with private companies, promoting cooperation between government and industry, and addressing shortages or bottlenecks. Its work helped streamline production and resource use, contributing significantly to the United States' wartime effectiveness.
