Remember that Ukraine also pulled out because the stupid Republicans are russian puppets who wouldn’t send more ammo to UA. So they didn’t get beat, they ran out of ammo, russia still would be getting dropped like flies if Ukraine had the ammo.
Slava Ukraini!
Russian tactics haven’t changed. Throw poorly equipped bodies at the enemy. When they’re shot down, throw even worse-equipped bodies at the enemy, tell them to pick up the previously fallen’s gear and move forward. Repeat.
“The one with the rifle shoots. The one without follows. When the one with the rifle is killed, the one without picks up the rifle and shoots.”
That part of Enemy at the Gates is so fuckin bleak and sobering.
It’s the Zapp Brannigan method.
