People forget the wisdom in the adage that “an army fights on its stomach”. The key to any successful outcome is logistics, logistics, logistics. No matter how good or motivated the soldiers may be, then almost always are defeated when they run out of food, fuel, ammunition and functioning weapons.

” No matter how good or motivated the soldiers may be, then almost always are defeated when they run out of food, fuel, ammunition and functioning weapons.”

So very true. General Pershing said that a century ago. “Infantry wins battles, but logistics wins wars.”
