Here is true logistics (prior proper planning at its finest):

This is an entry from the log of the United States Ship Constitution entered in the years 1779-1780, which relates to the supply management facet of the logistics engineering discipline. The excerpt is as follows:

"On the 23d of August 1779, the United States Ship Constitution set sail from Boston. She left with the following on board:

475 officers and men,
48,600 gallons of fresh water,
7400 cannon shot,
11,600 pounds of black powder,
and 76,400 gallons of rum.

Her mission was to destroy and harass English shipping. Making Jamaica on 6 October, she took on 826 pounds of flour and 68,300 gallons of rum. Then she headed for the Azores, arriving there on 12 November. She provisioned with 550 pounds of beef and 64,300 gallons of Portuguese wine. On 18 November she set sail for England. In the ensuing days she defeated five British Men-Of-War and captured and scuttled twelve (12) English Merchantmen.

By 27 January her powder and shot were exhausted. Unarmed, she made a raid on the Firth of Clyde. Her landing party captured a whiskey distillery and transferred 40,000 gallons on board by dawn. Then she headed home.

The Constitution arrived in Boston Harbor on 20 February 1780 with no cannon shot..... no powder..... no food..... no rum..... no whiskey..... but with 48,000 gallons of stagnant water..... This figures out to: 249,000 gallons of rum, wine, or whiskey 475 men 151 days equals to 3.4716 gallons/man/day.
