Look, don't think I don't understand your point. Decisions were made in haste no doubt. But here is the deal. And let me preface this with a disclaimer, I am only one guy, one soldier, who had this experience, KBR was the BEST and ONLY pre-positioned company to make this all happen. They have been doing it for years. I experienced it. Their support is real, tangible, effective. So not to discount all of the critical statements, because there is merit to them, no one and absolutely no one could have done the job they did. Opportunist companies sprung up overnight to take advantage of the needs required by the military, but guess what, experience and history were more important than fair play at this juncture. They had the ability, the contacts, the supply trains, the wherewithal, the experience, the list goes on, to deliver to the boots on the ground. And for that I am grateful. No disrespect to you personally but fuck everyone else who doesn't get it. I am tired of the bull shit. Ok, lets go back and get what they owe the taxpayer, fuck them, take them to court, whatever... But quit the sniping about how or why they were chosen in the first place. IMHO it had very little to do with Cheney or any other idiot. The defense industry is a revolving door of insiders, get over it already.
