I can’t recall many strategic “pullouts” whereby reluctant combatants leave much of their equipment, ammo and food behind. Then again we saw it happen last year in Kabul.

This is different than Kabul, Kabul was a transfer to the Afghan army.

This was a battlefield abandonment of weaponry to the Ukrainians while under attack, and with all expectations those guns would be turned around and used on themselves, but the panic could not be overcome.

The one in Kabul was intentional but not successful.
