"The 3rd Infantry's supply line was a constant problem during initial fighting for control of Iraq. After the fall of Baghdad, senior officers determined the division would be leaving within weeks — and its vehicles would be taken out of service — so they never filled orders for parts...
One battalion's operations officer said he has more than 2,600 parts on order and that all the tanks in his unit require extensive repairs. A commander said his Bradley Fighting Vehicles all had two-page lists of parts that were ordered but never delivered.
"None of my Bradleys are fully mission capable," said Capt. Chris Carter, an infantry company commander.
С уважением,
