    Okay, this does give me a satisfactory answer however it raises other questions, perhaps for another occasion. My take from you is that this is relatively normal and that the media is fussing too much over this. Fair, it’s not nice but at least I’m not puzzled, thanks for the answer

      This war is being incredibly mismanaged on every level in the US. There’s no strategy, there’s no objective, there’s no plan.

      Food quality is dropping because they didn’t plan, this isn’t about front line troops where there’s supply line issues due to enemy actions.

      This is all self inflicted. It should be a scandal of incompetence.

      This is far from normal. The United States is typically highly effective at maintaining resilient supply chains. What this situation reveals is just how poorly planned these decisions have been. There is no clear justification for how things have unfolded.

        That explains why, that’s the reason I was looking for initially. This makes sense and completes the picture, thank you
