greetings.
This source of the first post says,
''In total, 7.5 million tons of artillery shells, mines, rockets and engineering ammunition and 7.9 million tons were spent. air bombs - 15.4 million tons. against 17.9 million tons spent by the US armed forces in 1941-1945.''
while comparing vietnam war figures to WW2's.
did US armed forces actually consumed 17.9 million tons of munitions ?
this charts shows that usa produced 12.2 million tons of munitions between 1941-1945.
so Did the US have more than 5 million tons of ammunition stocks ? or used commonwealth ammunition along with its own ?
