Actually wasnt that the attempted supply run to the Turks?
Thats another reason - why send troops to Yugoslavia when you dont have a hope in heck of supplying them? Not when every ship you send has to run thru narrow waters off both Italy and Greece (both of whom are shooting at you). Only way it makes any sense is if both nations are still in NATO and still assisting you.
I cant see the commanders of those three divisions willingly getting on those ships knowing they were basically being thrown away to die with no hope of support - its one thing if they got sent off in July 1997 not expecting the US to get nuked. "Oh crap where are we going to get out supplies!"
They got sent over eight months later after it was pretty darn obvious that resupply was going to be nothing but fantasy.
