[QUOTE="caveeagle, post: 14719233, member: 128063"] Of course. I have worked many logistics projects and have over $20MM in savings to my credit over the last 15 years. I should have not used the "BS" comment, as that was way to harsh. (sorry) I am actually a little surprised to hear there was actually some significant cost savings, logistics that played into our decisions as we were managing our withdrawl in '13. I also think that future risk and liability would play into this. Just the thought that future US forces might actually have to go out against our own armor and weapons would have made us put more effort NOT leaving anything usefull behind. Anyhow.. It just drives me nuts to see our equipment being driven around on TV by terrorists and potentially being used against our own brave soldiers that are likely to be back over there soon. And, lots of things play into logistics. Many make the mistake of considerring only known options such as A or B type decisions. We still have bases in Italy, and Soudi and Jordan are at least friendlier than the locals. I bet there were better options to get that gear out of there. [/QUOTE]
