“Is he Rommel? Because they need Rommel.”

They need Zhukov.

If Trump could drive a tank, I’d love to see him blitz the Ruskies at least as well as Patton could have.

I don’t think he’s a Rommel. He talks a good game, but his troops can’t execute.

“High maneuver combat activities by autonomous groups of forces (troops) in various directions.”

One of the problems with a regime like Putin’s is that it is dangerous to promote competent ambitious people.

Giving a charismatic general who can lead troops and army won’t do. That guy could become a rival. Better to lose the war with a series of obedient schlubs.
