This is a good article. Just one point I'd like to make. While aircraft and helicopter use was still viable, rear-area troops could find themselves fighting special ops, airborne, and air assault troops on a regular basis -- Soviet OPLANs called for huge drops to capture certain supplies such as CEOIs, KYK modules, POL -- and places like B/D/G/JTACS and B/D/G/JTOCS practice sudden mass relocations (sudden for them, still takes about an hour for everyone to get going). They will also find themselves plastered by artillery, rockets, missiles, and air strikes, more than a soldier at the front might see.
