Can't bring himself to say who took the food aid. "Some people.." The United States said that no humanitarian aid from the US-constructed temporary pier in the central Gaza Strip has reached the broader Palestinian population.. Link Pentagon spokesperson Maj. Gen. Pat Ryder said on May 21 that the pier has facilitated the delivery of 569 metric tons of humanitarian aid. The United States, United Kingdom, United Arab Emierates, European Union and other unspecified US partners have donated the aid. Ryder said that unspecified people or agencies still need to distribute the aid, which has so far only been delivered to the shore. Palestinians intercepted trucks delivering aid from the pier over the weekend which led the UN to suspend delivery operations. Ryder said that the United States and the UN are working to establish ”alternative routes” for the safe delivery of the aid. US officials previously hoped that the pier would process about 90 trucks of aid per day, later raising the number to 150. View Quote |

Whoops! Someone didn't pay attention to the local tide charts. As long as the tides to swell too much they should be able to be refloated/dragged off the beach at high tide.

Quoted: I bet we use ours more often though View Quote Since you retired the Navy cut your community in half, so that ought to show you how they value Seabees. Yeah, they get used more often, but all the wartime reserve capacity is in the USAR. Same with a bunch of other support stuff, engineers, railroad troops, divers and other important capabilities. |

Quoted: My how this might have fallen. From storming the beaches of Normandy to ............This. They weren't even being shot at. View Quote Biden probably has a reverse D Day in mind for that pier. Where the enemy storms the beach, gets into our landing craft, then is taken to the US to invade |

Quoted: https://www.centcom.mil/MEDIA/PRESS-RELEASES/Press-Release-View/Article/3787939/high-sea-states-impact-army-vessels/ TAMPA, Fla. – This morning (Gaza time), four U.S. Army vessels supporting the maritime humanitarian aid mission in Gaza were affected by heavy sea states. The vessels broke free from their moorings and two vessels are now anchored on the beach near the pier. The third and fourth vessels are beached on the coast of Israel near Ashkelon. Efforts to recover the vessels are under way with assistance from the Israeli Navy. The IDF is supporting the recovery efforts near the pier. No U.S. personnel will enter Gaza. No injuries have been reported and the pier remains fully functional. We will release additional details as they become available. View Quote Snip The vessels broke free from their moorings and two vessels are now anchored on the beach near the pier. Putting the best spin possible |

Quoted: But aren't landing craft supposed to run around? View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Army boats? Landing craft? Despite USN and USMC propaganda, the Army has done more landings and put far more men and material ashore via beach landings, than any other service. But aren't landing craft supposed to run around? Yeah, the first one is clearly fucked, but the other looks pretty normal. But why are they using landing craft anyways? There something wrong with the pier we just paid to build? Also, WTF is that semi-sunk one? Seems a little dinky. |

Mission Creep, humanitarian aid program turns into military operation.
Where have we seen this before? |
|
What a giant boondoggle.
We could have fed everyone in Gaza (if that was the actual goal) by simply putting diplomatic pressure on Egypt. Better still, given that $300 mil to Egypt or Jordan to set up refugee camps (for starving women and children only) in their countries. The US military needs to get away, and stay far away from Gaza. |
|
I see the Marines are believing their marketing department again.
|
|
Why is this operation even necessary?
Hopefully, the Israelis don't "mistake" the floundering US vessels for hostile war ships and attack them. |
|
Can someone explain to me why the Israeli/Hamas war is our problem?

Those cargo ships sitting at anchor out there are some mighty tempting anti-ship missile targets.
They don't do airdrops anymore, I wonder how many Pali's they pancaked before giving up that idea? |

Was always told the army has more boats than the navy and more aircraft than the Air Force.
Army definitely has more astronauts than the space force. |

If the aid is not reaching the Palestinian infiltrators, I am guessing there is more going on here. Maybe these are weapon shipments disguised as aid, which the Israelis get to intercept and use it on the terrorists.
I am surprised the swimsuit pics are still on the OP's post. |

If Gaza is such a shithole, why are there people chilling on the beach in bathing suits?

Looking back into it they were talking about prior to/during WWII. Then later I know for a fact a Drill Sergeant told me the same was still true, then again they say a lot of shit that ain't. But my stat on the Army v Marine Pacific participation is true at least. |
