Thought provoking fact: In the early 1980’s, the US Military repainted most of their trucks and tanks from OD green to desert tan. I’m guessing they knew we were done fighting in the trees for a while and were going to fight in the deserts ‘somewhere’. Now, we’re changing many of the vehicles from desert tan to OD green again. Weird.
OD green is now cheaper....
I prefer battleship gray myself...😅
As retired mercantile shipping guy, many in old days preferred to pain Hull in Dunhill colour. Can't see rusts!😂
😊
Having been a Ro/Ro engineer during the Desert Shield operation, I'm still fascinated by these tremendous endeavors. I remembered, once the ships master received the orders, the vessel discharged all the containers on the nearest port and the ship sailed empty to load war materials to the assigned port, and back for more.
The handling of logistics for the 1944 D-Day invasion was nothing short of mind boggling. Continuous improvements & adaptation to current & future situations is imperatively important.
🇺🇸👍
As a table-top exercise, I would love to see today's logistics applied to June 6, as applied to materiel movement only. We'll gain some efficiencies, but how much would actually be changed?
@@beauregardb6108 Sad fact is we most likely could not pull off what was done on day d
My last active-duty assignment prior to my retirement from the US Navy was Navy Cargo Handling Battalion One out of Williamsburg, VA.

@@joeyjamison5772 Yes...the quote comes from Napoleon...but in the end it did not do him any good. Fortunately...otherwise Europe would certainly be speaking french and there would be frog legs and grilled snails for dinner. And i hate frog legs and snails.
Have a nice day my dear friends. All my best wishes for you and USA
Now those ppl are the military back bone. The logistics

Wonderful
Thank you !

Awesome video!
There is nothing else you can do in life that gives you the experience you gain by serving in the military.
I had never heard of the sealift command. I guess I never really thought about it. That's cool 😎!
Excellent video! Thank you. 😊😊😊❤❤❤
Huh, I thought they just left their equipment behind after quitting a conflict.

And you Sir, are you above reproach?
I spent five years on the S S Cape Inscription plus being electrician on Jupiter moving cargo to Saudi Arabia. Seen a lot of this.
One of the RoRo ships, the Nedlloyd Rosario that I sailed on as a sailor in 1980 under the Dutch flag, was sold to the United States Maritime Administration in 1995. The ship has been renamed Cape Kennedy and is still in active service in the National Defense Reserve Fleet.
( there's always money for weapons, to all naturals ?)

Wow❤❤❤
You should give back all the ships used to transport american military equipment back to China. Surely it is a security concern.
How many vehicles can carry this ship?
Nos dias de hoje o poder militar não está somente no poder de fogo e quantidade mas acesso à pontos de estrangulamento bases pelo mundo parcerias capacidade logística naval e aérea rapidez e a palavra chave como deve despender um esforço gde p deslocar divisoes inteiras de um continente p outro algo complexo !
I trust that the red and gold "US Army" locomotive is US-based...
Emperor Augustus:Varus Varus where are my Legions!
President Biden: Zelensky Zelensky where are my Billions!
😂😂😂😂😂
Putler should not mess with the Us
why they acting like they dont just leave there equiptment to continue instability.
God bless America ! Without America all will eat with chopstick or better eating vodka, lmao 😅
Best in the world.
😂😂
russia can't even keep a 40 mile convoy supplied with enough fuel to reach their target! Incredible to see the mammoth job they have. These folks do NOT get the respect and gratitude they deserve! If you are a part of this world, thank you. The amount of tonnage they carry is insane. Nobody can compare or compete with this. Pretty awesome to see.
Want to see positive outcome on the battle front,;NOT impressive videos
All for Peace in the World 😅
Your Presidents of the USA
Peace Nobel Price laureate 🤣
bloody business
❤️🇬🇧
Imagine spending all that money for education and healthcare! We can live with less enemies
An idealistic world that would be exactly how it spent but unfortunately we don't live in that kind of world we got to have a military to protect us especially the United States army
Too late again. Sprayed in Sahara colors? Hopefully all still intact.
Waste of money. I want my tax dollars back. Build a road or someth8ng and stop all the endless wars.
My biggest worry is where the hell are we sending this equipment? The Somali pirates already stole our Navy ships, aircraft and white bodies of our soldiers. Are they stealing everything on that ship and delivering it to Africa? They sent the new Space Force to Africa and the soldier's bodies were taken over by the blacks and replaced with black witchcraft reinsertion physical bodies with black spirits and the white souls would have been sacrificed guaranteed. They then sent them to Europe. How convenient to keep them away from their home families who would notice the personality differences. The Africans have taken over our military bases and this country. They come via electric frequency metal spirits and take over the white bodies of our soldiers. They are stealing us blind.

I guess you are sounding like an American even tho you are a pro Palestinian from the middle east lmao 😂
The public do not want war. British, American, Australian , Chinese, European Russian. Nobody wants war. If Governments talked peace instead of war it would be wonderful..
