It is inexcusable not to do the proper planning that has to be done in order to make sure that their deployment is not overextended, that they’re getting the supplies they need, that they’re getting the support they need.

But the facts speak for themselves.

It’s poor planning to wind up with your stockpiles of key weapons being depleted.
