Now let's carry this over to world affairs. Now I'm not an expert here, but the same thing is often the case, especially in warfair.

A very good example was what was known as The Tokyo Express in WWII. This had something to do with the fighting around Guadal Canal and it referred to how the Japanese would try to resupply their troops late at night always at the same time."

Maybe I misunderstand but didn't the Japanese supply lines eventually get disrupted by our Navy to the extent that we just about starved out the enemy on Guadacanal?
