This is correct in a sense. While the US has a decent amount of stand out technology, comparably good training, comparably well equipped soldiers, etc. The true power of the US military is the world wide infrastructure it has developed to get whatever force needed, to where ever force is needed, within a few hours to 3 days. So, yeah, the US military being able to deploy fast food chain restaurants pretty much anywhere in the world, is a demonstration of it’s reach and resources, if an unconventional one.
WWII had ice cream delivered to Allies on beachfronts. It was apparently very demoralizing to the Axis
It’s one of my fav wwii stories, can’t remember what rank the Japanese navy dude was but apparently the idea that Americans had an entire ship just for ice cream was a large factor in him calling to stand down
