Logistics is so key to victory. It was my secondary specialty. Even though Patton is criticized for ignoring logistics, I disagree - I think Patton had a keen understanding of how American logistics and our massive industrial capacity were going to crush the Axis. Patton's issue was that he was so aggessive on the offensive that he was willing to play his logistical string out to the last thread and then some. But Patton was right that aggressive behavior wins wars and saves lives.
