Yikes!
“Seeing no opportunity for victory, American combatants asked for the exercise to be ‘reset’ halfway through.”
I thought exercises were suppose to be like the real thing ???
“Oh yoohoo you Isis over there, we need a reset”
“OK Infidel we’ll go back to 9am yesterday. “
Oh goody. Thanks guys. Youre so woke”

Yikes? The reset enabled more effective training. E.g., plan a 5 day training exercise, discover deficiencies by day 2 (or whatever), reset and address deficiencies, continue to train.
Training is expensive, units do not have money to waste, resetting makes a lot of sense to get the best use out of the limited training dollars.
