He was operational planner during the murder of civilians in Belgrade, Serbia and vigorously called for the surrender of Ukraine at the outset.

Aka, a surrender monkey.

“Aka, a surrender monkey.”

Military career

Macgregor led a contingent of 49 fighting vehicles in “the last great tank battle of the 20th century” without suffering any casualties.
Macgregor was the “squadron operations officer who essentially directed the Battle of 73 Easting” during the Gulf War.[2] Facing an Iraqi Republican Guard opponent, he led a contingent consisting of 19 tanks, 26 Bradley Fighting Vehicles and 4 M1064 mortar carriers through the sandstorm to the 73 Easting at roughly 16:18 hours on 26 February 1991 destroyed almost 70 Iraqi armored vehicles with no U.S. casualties in a 23-minute span of the battle.[2] He was at the front of the formation in the center with Eagle Troop on the right and Ghost Troop on the left. Macgregor designated Eagle Troop the main attack and positioned himself to the left of Eagle Troop. Eagle Troop Scouts subsequently followed Macgregor’s tank through a minefield during which his crew destroyed two enemy tanks. As Macgregor was towards the front of the battle involved in shooting, he didn’t “request artillery support or report events to superiors until the battle was virtually over, according to one of his superior officers.”[2] The risks he undertook “could have been criticized had the fight turned ugly.”[2]

Surrender only the eastern region which is predominantly Russian already to avoid the humanitarian crisis we are seeing.

We chose the wrong side in Serbia/Bosnia/Kosovo.

I don’t know the history of the Col.

Whatever it is, it is better than our media is capable of presenting.
