Nice read. G.I.'s have a way of importing a little bit of America where ever they are around they world, don't they?
I've heard, "amateurs talk tactics, professionals talk logistics." I am in awe that the advance on Baghdad was supported the way it was. The mishap of the 507th was tragic. The column did have to hold up a couple of days to regroup and resupply. But to go the distance in the time the 3rd I.D. and Marines did means the logisticians were definitely on top of their game.
Phil, you are a hoot.
