The Army wants to get the load soldiers carry down to 55 pounds

Indulging in a little literary license... although the 'wise ammunition husbandry' item is directly relevant to logistics.

All else being equal bad, soft troops need more support... good, tough troops need less support.

The quality of our soldiers will (partially) determine how much gear they need to do their jobs effectively, and probably shouldn't be considered separately from logistics.

One small example:

Them: Wait for the trucks so we can drive you to the range.

Me: It's only 5kms, we'll march and get there before the trucks arrive.

Them: But that's 'abuse of troops'.

Me: They're good troops, so I doubt it.
Ok, now I get your point.
