Supplies and Tonnage (ammunition, fuel, rations, equipment) were delivered, but significantly below plan. Early days saw shortfalls (e.g., only ~6,600 tons in the first three days vs. planned ~25,000).
Remember, these figures only cover a single day in the fighting with losses only estimated. The following days would cost the allies dearly in men and materiel. Thank God for these brave fighting men!
