And the day before, the Allies in the south liberate Rome with a large invasion force. Within a few days we repeated the enormity of the DDay invasion with the invasion of Saipan…on the other side of the world.
These few weeks represented “peak logistics” for the US.
Now we cheer when Boeing gets a space capsule up into space after 7 attempts.
I imagine that communication to coordinate the logistics must have been a nightmare.
