The Logistics of Gulf War II
Featured Story Image
The recent Gulf War was not fought with just bullets and heavy artillery. It also required a phenomenal amount of resources to sustain approximately 250,000 troops. During the height of the war, American forces in Iraq consumed more than 200,000 gallons of water and roughly a million gallons of fuel a day-all of which had to be trucked hundreds of miles into Iraq from camp Arifjan in Kuwait. The United States Army's 106th Transportation Battalion was responsible for this logistical support for Gulf War II. The Logistics of military combat, an aspect of war often overlooked, is the focus of this series of photographs by Ed Kashi.
