    logistics’ exercise

    Comment

    War in Ukraine is primarily a logistics’ exercise.

    Ist das tatsächlich ein Genitiv doer doch eine adjektiviche Nutzung (kein Apostroph)?

    Der Autor scheint Brite zu sein.

    The apostrophe is wrong.

    The sentence is a bit odd: I guess he is referring to the present war, not wars in Ukraine in General. So he should use an article: "The war in Ukraine ...". I don't think it's an exercise, either, that seems an inappropriate word. I guess it is probably a truism, that the longer a war goes on, the more important logistics become.

    The missing article is my bad. I cut this out from a longer sentence: https://qr.ae/prX984 3rd paragraph


    As for 'exercise in logistics' or 'logistic exercise, they seem to be used, goggle pretty well.

    FWIW, der ganze Satz aus dem Link in #2 :


    ... However, I do know a lot about running big events and have done so with considerable success. I also love logistics and the terrible, wicked, genocidal war in Ukraine is primarily a logistics’ exercise. ...

    So wie es eine Frage der Logistik sein kann, kann es nicht auch eine Übung der Logistik sein?
