I know a great way to bring this exercise to a screeching halt, because I have seen it happen before. I got to see a major military exercise halted for several days because of it.
Ban coffee sales to other than local residents, who can only buy “customary” amounts for their own use.
In that other exercise, soldiers were dispatched to drive hundreds of miles to buy coffee on a Sunday holiday with most stores closed, because many senior officers and NCOs refused to continue without it.
If nothing else, it would toss a huge monkey wrench into the exercise.
Wow, that’s mart.
I would have said TP.
Are you giving away military secrets?/s
