Move to NATO logistics in the Afghan War?

Would it be better to move this page to NATO logistics in the Afghan War and broaden its focus to include all logistics efforts in the war? This would bring it in line with other pages like British logistics in the Falklands War and British logistics in the Second Boer War. --Cerebellum (talk) 17:15, 25 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

On second thought, I'll just go ahead and be bold and move it. Let me know if I am in error or if there is a better title. --Cerebellum (talk) 17:15, 25 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Being picky - "NATO logistics" doesn't cover all the allied logistics effort, ISAF includes many countries that aren't part of NATO. OK, many of them don't have much logistics capability, but eg Australia does. So it should probably be "ISAF logistics in the Afghan War" or "Coalition logistics in the Afghan War" - the former more precise, the latter more of a WP:COMMONNAME. And technically it's not the only Afghan War, but there's no convenient other shorthand.

There's a nice photo on the official UK forces site to demonstrate the international nature of the logistics (and indeed ISAF as a whole), a British Wolfhound driving onto an Aussie C-17. It's Crown copyright, so available to wiki via the OGL if someone would like to do the honours...? 86.31.204.118 (talk) 10:56, 23 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Map for Northern Distribution Network

This article should have a map of the Northern Distribution Network, but I can't find a free one. Can anyone find/make such a map? --Cerebellum (talk) 16:42, 25 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
