Question

Describe the difficulties Americans faced in the European theater in terms of: delivering weapons, food and medical supplies to troops.

Answer 1

The delivering of weapons, food, and medical supplies to the American troops in Europe was not the easiest thing to do. The European Theater was in chaos, and danger lurked everywhere, so delivering anything to any spot was anything but safe, as a surprise attack was always a possibility. Also, the Atlantic Ocean needed to be crosses, and ti is the second largest body of water on the planet, so it was a long way to go, and plus not cheap at all. The troops were constantly on the move, so that also represented problem, as they were getting more and more into the interior of the continent, so apart from having to deliver things further away, the danger was also increasing as the enemy lines were always close.
