      There was an article a few days ago about how the soldiers stopped following some of their western training as it wasn’t working / appropriate for their situation.

      I imagine there will also be some cross training where they update the American soldiers on what worked and didn’t work and why.

        From what I heard that seemed to be mainly two factors where the situations were different than most conflicts the Western forces have been in in a good while.

        1. Lack of air support. The air is still contested over Ukraine.

        2. Minefields everywhere

          1. No offense Germany, but you gotta fix your military.

          A lot of the Ukrainians complaining about poor training / equipment are the ones getting German gear it seems. That’s… okay. Some training is better than none, and Germany is sending good tanks / equipment after all. But Germany definitely is underperforming IMO given its economic level of output and overall strength of the country.

            I mean, we kinda made sure of that, as a general collective global community? Considering, you know, “last time”? 😅😬
