Very good point! Logistical re-supply could very well be the main contributing factor. However, I also wonder how the other element managed to accomplish the mission. One would think that a trans company would have about the same issues across the unit. I would also like to see their OR rating!

Remember one thing though ..... one of the best BDEs in the Army for Armored Gunnery is the 86th BDE .... a NG unit from the 42nd ID!!! [img]tongue.gif[/img] They were recently given a Unit Citation for their service at NTC as OPFOR.
