The PLA's 20th Logistics Subunit was established in 1961 at
Nanning. In November 1962 it was relocated to
Jiashan,
Guilin. When the HQ was moved back to Nanning in 1965, the logistic unit remained in Jiashan. In 1975, the unit was given the
MUCD of unit 54041. As part of the
2015 military reforms the Joint Logistics Support Force was established in January 2016. Its principal organ was the
Wuhan Joint Logistics Support Base. On 13 September 2016, the five main Joint Logistics Centers at
Wuxi,
Guilin,
Xining,
Shenyang and
Zhengzhou were established as the subordinate units of the Wuhan JLSB, using the existing logistic units of the
Theater Commands. ==Organization==
