If you haven’t spent any time on the military brevity codes for ammunition status, I can’t blame you. This is a niche subject, but there are four tiers: green, yellow, red, and black.

Green – Fully mission capable; sufficient supply for the mission/

Amber/Yellow – Limited supply; degraded capability. You start picking and choosing targets more carefully.

Red – Serious shortage; the mission is significantly impacted. You can only address the most critical targets…if that.

Black – No supply. Completely exhausted.

So when Trump posted this lunacy on Trash Social, my ear pricked up. (And with my ears, there’s a lot of prick up.) Despite his boasting, I suspect we’re deep in the Yellow status, knocking on the door of Red.




As a saying goes: Piss-poor planning leads to piss-poor performance.

Much much more about the logistics of this situation and Trump's stupidity in the link:
