I am sure the decision makers did think of the people (despite the poor communication of intent to the troops).NL_engineer said:Well another good example of senior leadership out of touch with the troops. I think before people make these decisions they should look at its affect on troops; and not stop as far as the wire.
Have you ever been involved (even on the periphery) with stratigic lines of communication? An airport only has so much capacity to bring things into a theatre of operation. There is a fininte number of flights that can come or go in a day, there is a finite amount of space on the ramps, there is a limit to the rate at which crews & equipment can off-load materiel, etc. If APOD congestion is causing the US is to have trouble getting ammunition, parts, consumables and other war materiel into country, then it is a military imparative for reductions in non-essential flow through that APOD ... even if that means no more McWoppers.
