Thanks.
After we kicked Iraq out of Kuwait, a Russian general said he was glad they never had to go up against our Air and Armored Forces in Europe.

He is dead flat correct. And I'm glad we never had to stop the Eighth Guards Army anywhere between Frankfurt/Gelnhausen/Fulda and Munich.

I figure we would have nailed them at a rate of about 15 to one. I also figure they would have thrown 25-1 or 30-1 at us.
