Congratulations to SFC Bilbraut on his retirement from the Army after over 20 years of selfless service. He was an invaluable asset to the unit in the last year and a half he has been with the unit and will be missed. He will continue to serve the country, assisting Soldiers through his work at the Department of Veterans Affairs. You will be missed SFC Bilbraut!

Logistics - back in the day
"An army of 30,000 men, properly fed, required daily 45,000 lbs (20 tons) of bread - that is, over 100,000 lbs of flour plus the ovens to bake it - and 30,000 lbs of meat (equivalent to 1,500 sheep or 150 bullocks). Moreover, although the livestock could be transported 'on the hoof' until required, a week's supply of flour and its ovens required 250 carts and a corresponding number of draught animals"
