037: Hard Math, Simple Breakdowns, and Other News

Log, Krakow, September 4th, 2000

268 mouths consume a little over 800 kilograms of food a day.

That's 268 in Krakow script or about 1/30th of our gold war chest.

There's not enough to make it through this winter.

---------

Troop morale and health continues to improve with adequate food and rest.  Active numbers are up to 207.  Doc reports that of the remainder another 27 should be back to duty within the week.  That leaves 28 in the physically unfit (4) or heavily traumatized (24) category.

Noted in the Log

In addition to his assigned duties, Aron Sawicki organized a thorough inventory and requisition of abandoned materials in the compound area during our absence.  Clothes, underwear, footwear, coats (fall and winter) and other cold weather gear, blankets, pillows, kitchen items, and bags were available to the troops upon their arrival. 

Several cans of Red and Blue paint were discovered and set aside for tactical markings.  A basket of red sheets, towels and rags is available for the making of Red Diamond shoulder insignia.

Out of his personal funds he has obtained a 1000 L water trailer.
