      Well, that had nothing to with bureaucracy at all. It was a normal reaction to a situation which could not be controlled.
      Please note that there are no exact dates given! Assume the ATGMs were delivered November 1st 1989- nobody could foresee at this point the changes in a geopolitical context a few days later.
      So, within the shortest period of time the decision was made to request / order the return of a specific weapons system. Normal reaction, and the US-Army or government may have reacted in exactly the same way.
      And, this is only one example.
