Ping me, please. I’ve seen a number of comments on this. They just don’t have a history of independent thought at the small unit command level, and they don’t have mechanical competency in maintain modern military hardware. Factor in the IQ issue from generations of consanguinity, and you’ve got some real problems when the going gets tough.
