    Yeah this seems odd. Why steal crude oil. It would need to be processed to be of any use. It’s not like they have a refinery on the base… same with the wheat.

      That was the first thing that popped out at me too. US troops have zero reason to be looting such random raw materials, they require refined oil products and actual food to function or do anything useful.
