Knowing the US military Logistics, that won’t be a diversion; it’ll be an addition. A friendly reminder that we deployed Fucking ice cream barges, barges with the singular purpose of making ice cream, to the South Pacific during WW2.

Supposedly a Japanese POW saw the barges, and knew at that moment that the war was lost, as the US could afford to supply servicemembers with ice cream, while Japan was facing widespread rationing and food shortages at home. (But I can’t find any confirmation of this story)
