This report is great, if it is true.

One thing I’ve learned is that the tactical situation on the ground could be entirely different than reported.

(See TET, February 1968)

But but.. I heard some here say Russians don’t need cold weather gear because they are Russians and naturally acclimatized to cold weather.

Russian army not prepared for the cold? BS! That is Americans in Korea perhaps, but not Russians on what historically is home territory.

…a senior U.S. defense official revealed on Tuesday.

Who? What is his or her name? And title?

Yeah, I didn’t think so, Daily Mail. #TheMediaSucks

If Russian troops suffer from frostbite, imagine what the Ukrainian population has to endure.

According to Lara Logan, Putin “didn’t go straight into Kieve” for “stategic” reasons.

There have certainly been times during this war that the temperature somewhere in Ukraine has been below freezing. And I'd bet my left nut that some Russian troops have gotten frostbite, because that is inevitable whenever you have a large number of troops in cold weather.

The important question is "how many", however, and I suspect the number is quite low.

Ironic if true, since that is what happened to both Napoleon’s French army and the Nazis when they invaded Russia.
