We just aren’t following it.
Following up on Tom’s post below, I note that General Honore discussed the Defense Logistics Agency, which I noted in an early post seemed to be non-existent in this response.
It’s a 26,000 person agency called the “Defense Logistics Agency” which Honore says would normally be enlisted to deal with getting supplies where they need to go. Obviously. They are the experts.
The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) is a combat support agency in the United States Department of Defense, with more than 26,000 civilian and military personnel throughout the world. Located in 48 states and 28 countries, DLA provides supplies to the military services and supports their acquisition of weapons, fuel, repair parts, and other materials. The agency also disposes of excess or unusable equipment through various programs.
Through other U.S. federal agencies, DLA also helps provide relief supplies to victims of natural disasters, as well as humanitarian aid to refugees and internally displaced persons.
This agency has been around since WWII. They have done supply logistics for wars and disaster relief all over the world. It seems to be pretty good at what it does.
Instead, we have Jared.
