Where are you getting your information? I'm sorry but no. The reason this is happening is because the US is to afraid to move the ships to large ports in the region. Most of them have been bombed to shit anyways. These ships have 5000 sailors. Their families are spilling the beans too! And here you are, "No this is sop during war time..." Just no. So wrong I'm wondering if your name is Pette.

    It's absolutely sop during wartime now bud. You're ignoring the fact this is not going to get better, it's going to get worse and we can say that because hey lookie there things are worse today then yesterday.

    I'm aware of the logistics issues, I'm aware the US created them and I'm well aware they're not competent enough to fix the problems hence shortages being the norm as they have been to a less extent for decades and moreso now they gutted a lot of the competent people in logistics for political reasons.

    You're still stuck on "we're better than this" we aren't, stop expecting 1990 when it's 2026.

    So followed up with my friend before going to bed. You're full of shit. Bud. Lol. Yes right now this administration is unable to supply the ships due to incompetence. My friend's exact word from all combat deployments (Sword/Shield/Freedom) "The food wasn't always hot, rearly good, but always enough!"he also mentioned his old heads can't remember a time it was this bad.

    Please stop lying on the internet.

    By your own explanation your buddy is talking about how it's supposed to be and how it was not how it is, we can see how it is and how it's been and that's a graph that skews downward not upward.
