Fair enough :)

Why is it US kit being put there though..... why not European equipment?

Because european kit is already in Europe and ready to go, they store yank stuff over here so that if they need to deploy over this side of the world in a hurry all they have to do is send bodies to pick up the kit already here.

I guess it's a modern bigger scale version of how the first nation people in the US used caches of food and kit to travel light in time gone by :)

On chance in the Dales - not flat straight roads.

Plus local cavers would soon have them emptied. USMC no match for Dales cavers

That depends on whether they send one Marine? Or if there's an army of cavers they might need to send 2 Marines.

That sounds like the American government alright: people at home suffering economically, and the government poking money down a crawdad hole in some other country,,,

Neither you nor any of your family work in the aviation industry do you? Nor the oil industry? You know; the basic middle class jobs that depend on the defense industry contracts? The contracts that put millions into the economy every year.
