In spring 1945 Japan, having lost all non home islands and >330 ships, developed “Ketsu-Go” the last stand battle plan for a full US invasion

Among their planning was arming 2 million children & elderly w/ bamboo spears & grenades

…so if you’re “winning” you don’t enlist kids https://t.co/K5TFDwmqhd

Good news, @benshapiro. The U.S. Army is increasing the maximum enlistment age from 34 to 42. You made the cut. https://t.co/z1X4UIeGsT pic.twitter.com/R4cTELvIFl

France is saying more than a third of gulf oil infrastructure is GONE. We still have markets operating as if this will be over soon and we'll pivot to the next flavor of the month. People have no fucking clue what has ALREADY been done to the global economy in a few short weeks. https://t.co/lskFwGPVvK

• No pause from Tehran, war footing deepens: Iran denies requesting Donald Trump's 10-day halt
• Escalation on all fronts: IRGC HQ targeted by US-Israsel; Iran signals expansion by naming UAE targets, hitting Kuwait ports and sending drones on Riyadh
• Israel doubles down amid reports of manpower strain: IDF chief warns of manpower pressure even as Defense Minister Katz vows to "intensify and expand" strikes.
• Risk rises that Iran is holding back more advanced missiles for a prolonged war: WSJ writes "The US and Israel are pounding Iran's missile-launching sites... But Tehran's missiles keep flying."

U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent stated that the U.S. does not view the Strait of Hormuz as a "choke point" for the global economy, per PBS

'13 US Regional Bases Uninhabitable': NYT

...Something analysts suspected was the case over the course of the last weeks of expanding war: "Many of the 13 military bases in the region used by American troops are all but uninhabitable, with the ones in Kuwait, which is next door to Iran, suffering perhaps the most damage." This is based on statements by unnamed US defense officials who admit they've had to scramble to find 'alternative' housing and office solutions for personnel.

Would think missiles would be linked to uninhabitable. The NY Times article ended by saying how well the US operates when remote.

"Sergeant Bryant, a former Air Force special operator, pointed out that one area that the U.S. military excels at is what he called "decentralized execution," or the ability to continue to do its job even from far afield.


"You could cut off the head of the snake and down to the last individual soldier, we're still going to be operating," he said."

The OP made it sound like the AF guys were not willing to stay in combat level accommodations.

Here are a few articles on it.
