This seems to have WAY gone off the original topic.

But here we go, I do recall this as 1975, if that is mistaken, correct me please.

During an "electronic wargame" that the US was running on a super computer of a "Limited Nuclear Exchange" war (probably similar to T2k), they found that the US lost EVERY time they did it, no matter what they did to the variables of it.
It was found afterwards that it was because the US did not have a proper logistical support, something that the UK had learnt from France around 100 years earlier during the Crimean war.
