Picture a division of United States Marines ready to advance into a dangerous and unknown situation on foreign soil. The Marines are carrying no weapons to protect themselves. There is no ammunition. The amphibious vehicles they had been expecting did not arrive. Their helmets didn’t come and even the rations to feed them are nowhere to be found.

Somewhere along the line, the logistics broke down.

And this is where Tallahasseean Gus Daniels, First Sergeant, United States Marine Corps, Retired, comes in.

A former member of the Second Marine Division, which includes Force Service Support Group, Marine Base, Air Wing, and the Second Marine Division where he served for 20 years, and an additional four-and-a-half years in Tallahassee as an inspector/instructor, Daniels was responsible for all of the equipment, vehicles, and fuel, all of the weapons and ammunition that would be required to keep two Units with 2,000 men each supplied during combat in the field.
