#8 It is easy to do, unfortunately. Even our pilots get the drop area wrong aided with GPS once in a while.

You have a choice of dropping near the front lines and hoping most of the supplies hits the troops that need it, or dropping it farther back and having a lag time in getting to the troops that need it.
