The Pentagon is never going to get their equipment back; that’s a pipe dream at best.

Given the tangled web that has been woven, it is best to get our boys out and home and address the very serious problems that we face.

Israel can handle it.

They new from the beginning that they would never get the equipment back.

If they did, Turkey would roll over 1/2 of Syria. Human suffering would be incredible and Turkey would again try to commit Genocide. (not over stated)

“The Pentagon is never going to get their equipment back; that’s a pipe dream at best.”

I learned long ago in military logistics classes that retrieving hardware and shipping it back for reconditioning is cost-prohibitive and that is the reason why we leave things to the local governments as a military gift or destroy it.

It would probably cost just as much to remanufacture new and therefore the practice of salvaging battle-worn equipment has gone out of fashion.
