Maybe that's why things like Gold Bond aren't available in combat zones....What company out there would want to do something very nice, and get maligned for it?

>>>You know like at the end of those PBS programs, they run a list of Corporate sponsors. This part of the war is brought to you by the generous contributions of the following organizations....<<<

And yes, I too, can seriously relate to the supply end of the military requirements. Especially when the infrastructure of Iraq was in such terrible shape before the war started. Items like water ... entire new systems had to be built for both the Military and for Iraq's citizens.

Even thinking of the logistics of getting supplies to our troops versus any of my complaints of keeping up the supplies needed to run our household ...makes those complaints just turn to laughter.
