Supposedly a Ukraine civilian overheard a Russian tanker talking to his commander and stating, “ Shoot? We don’t know who to shoot at. They look like us.”
Yep. I’m surprised to watch the Russian Military. They actually behave professional (so far). But I’m also surprised they aren’t very good or that Ukrainian’s are extremely good. It’s one or the other. And seeing how many of the ukranians just got guns yesterday I believe it’s the Russians really aren’t that good.
The Russians are just horribly low morale. They’ve been given a banquet of S#@% to attend and sick, S#$%-ing ponies to get there.
Any private knows about re-supply and protecting their flanks -”how do I stay alive, how do I eat”. They see the mud in the fields and know their wheeled vehicles are F-d to resupply them.
Total S show they know they don’t deserve.
Bkmk
The party looked to the peasant conscript soldiers - many of whom were wearing their first real pair of boots. When the boots had worn out, they’d be ready to listen.
By the second winter, the boots had worn out... but the line still held. Even Comrade Lenin underestimated both the anguish of that 900-mile long front... as well our own cursed capacity for suffering. Half the men went into action without any arms... irregular rations... led by officers they didn’t trust.

“I believe almost nothing I have read from either side.”
Agreed, too early to tell.
Fake martyrs 🤪
You’re either dead or alive.
Which is it here?
Everything that is going viral on Twitter right now is either completely unverifiable or a total lie. From both sides.
Classic Eastern European war propaganda spreading with modern social media, retweeted by Twitter bleucheques with brand-new Ukrainian flags next to their profiles and who are treating the whole event as some kind of Marvel comic book movie.
