How can a civilian example explain contested logistics?

Does explaining logistics take more than a page of bullet points?

Familiar civilian comparisons can explain the connections. Hurricane damage and interrupted electricity repairs show the consequences of losing normal logistical support.

Clarke asks whether the connections within logistics require more explanation than a short list can provide. Mercogliano answers with an example from hurricane-prone North Carolina. A household normally expects the power company to repair damaged lines, but interrupted support means relying on a generator or another temporary substitute. The comparison explains contested logistics through the failure of a normal support network.
