Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
I'd just like to clarify this so that we don't leave an impression....
In terms of the commanders' reports, they dealt at length with logistical issues and supply issues, and they certainly did raise concerns, in some instances, about deficiencies in the supply chain. What we identified as being notable was the fact that in reviewing all of those reports, at the end of the day, yes, there had been problems with the supply chain, but what they also indicated was that those had not affected combat operations, which we thought was important to draw attention to. But they certainly addressed logistical issues at some length in those reports.
The second thing I just want to be clear about is that the $6 million and $7 million—the other end-of-rotation inventories—was not something that we identified. That was something we drew attention to as a result of the reports and the very good work that DND had done. If they had not done that work, we certainly would not have had the audit capacity to detect that.
I think, in fairness to the forces, I just wanted to clarify that.
