Iris, your calculations support the old saying, "amateurs talk tactics but professionals talk logistics."

Thanks for the kind words.

Believe it or not, I like military logistics.

Like SAM pointed out Rommel in North Africa is a logistical story. There are so many others. Barbarossa, the Confederacy, the Sherman tank not being replaced in a timely fashion, and New Guinea - Guadalcanal come to mind. Ludendorff spent most of his time on supply.

Bedford Forrest always made sure there was enough stuff to win and to get home. Maybe two to a horse, and no food at all for the last three days, but enough to win and get home.

I like that "win and get home" part!!!
