One question about fuel may be more is there fuel in Europe - i.e. its great if you can ship stuff there but you need to get the boats or planes home too or you are not going to be able to keep up any supply effort for long

One of the issues is that the only relevant verbiage here is incredibly vague.
"When the smoke clears, the US has obliterated the Soviet navy [in the Atlantic], but suffered huge losses in the process. President West has lost his capacity to ship more troops and equipment to Europe - as well as the ability to bring the forces already there back home."
Does this mean the US doesn't have enough ships to carry large amounts of troops/equipment? That they don't have enough fuel? That the men operating the ships have lost contact with command? That their morale is so low that they're simply unwilling to risk further trips?
It could be any or all of those reasons. Or something else entirely.
