	USCC - Testimony of Marble Page
		Second, individual units and even regional and provincial military authorities face many pressing logistical needs, have very likely also used some of their profits to begin new commercialization ventures, and are not likely able to afford or even be allowed to use their earnings to import cutting-edge weapons from abroad.
		Second, commercialization helped fund the actual process of moving these military resources back into the state sector; this occured not only by providing the dual-use training and jobs for demobilized soldiers as mentioned above but also by helping to fund the privatization of military ports, bases, warehouses, and transportation and communications infrastructure.
		Second, this type of infrastructure is pervasive across the entire military, resulting in organizational units at all levels making active use of such resources.
