Awesome read and website to read what is going on around the world. Some of the challenges I have experience is the constant tendency to try and develop and build to American capacity and capability and not to the capacity and capability of the host nation. This creates a sustainment nightmare for the host nation once we depart the AO.

This is some quality stuff, sir. Thank you.
The challenge we always face with HA and Disaster Response missions is we always seem to want to reinvent the wheel. While the challenges and physical terrain might differ, getting what is needed to the right people logistically and in cooperation with local government assets always seems to be where we get hung up.
Then when we get to transitioning from "giving a man a fish" to "teaching a man to fish", the handoff between USG to LNG and between DoD and DoS always seems to be an afterthought.
