The Germans lost, didn't they?

We didn't win in Vietnam. Does that reflect on the quality of our equipment?

Hitler didn’t understand warfare from either a strategic or a tactical sense.

A swinish response on your part - I guess we can safely assume that you weren't there, were you?

Now, the M-60 was a crappy machine gun and the M-16 was trash - but we were far and away more effective than the enemy at all times. We did far better than they did with what we had.
