Logistics, +1. The Allies were led by a man who decided we needed nearly two hundred thousand deuce and a half's to win WWII (which were mainly used as non-combat vehicles). How's that for a source? ;)Mazura– Mazura2016-11-02 08:20:07 +00:00Commented Nov 2, 2016 at 8:20

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. world-war-two), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
