#1 the troops experience an acute shortage of small arms and protective equipment. Only every third fighter can be fully equipped.

We sent them FORTY FUCKING BILLION DOLLARS. Every soldier should have gold-plated armor and unlimited ammo. Where'd the fucking money go?

Oh, you mean sending money to the most corrupt country in Europe, with neo-Nazis, means the money is going to be stolen and little will end up with the troops on the line? Oh, if there had only been some warning!

#2 unlimited ammo

It’s my understanding that ammunition manufacturers have been working flat out for years — since Barack Obama was elected president in 2008, if I recall correctly — in a vain attempt to keep up with the combined demands of A erican citizens and U.S. government departments that ought to have no need for such things. If so, there is no unlimited ammo to be had anywhere, no matter how much someone might have to spend.
