Kek. Just covering the 5Ws&H in case it joggles someone's memory. I just remember it was strange af when it happened. Hesco barriers were used all over SWA. Maybe some Britanons might have insight

They had their chance but canceled Global Combat Suppot System, GCSS-AF, 10 years ago. Based on SAP R3 ERP, it would have given them total asset visibility.

But the cost to roll out GCSS-A to USAF units worldwide was estimated at about 1 billion. Cheap bargain compared to this rounding error in just one program. How much unaccounted for accross all programs?
