Re: Question re: Supplies
Not actual time-related, but I saw something to the effect that the WW2 UK supply organisaton used a rule of thumb that the supply ration in tons for a rifle batallion in combat was 30 times what it would be if it was being held in reserve.
That would be mainly leg at the sharp end with truck supply etc, so probably the supply ratio ratio for a mech inf or armoured unit would be worse than 30 to 1 between combat and reserve postures?.
