Don't suppose Trump and Hegseth have thought of any need for supply lines to keep our people fed and armed.
Seriously, it would be best for all to strap parachutes on Trump and his cronies and drop them into enemy territory with a couple bullets, on can MRE and a map they aren't smart enough to read.

I doubt we will ever know the accurate numbers.
I am sorry they are sending you!
