The Russians have now had eight generals killed in action.
By comparison, the US had seven flag officers killed in action during the Vietnam War (not counting accidents and heart attacks).

If you're one of the Covidiots who believe that COVID-19 is "just the flu",
that the 2020 election was stolen, or
especially if you supported the 1/6/21 insurrection,
leave now.
Slava Ukraini!

COMMENT MODERATION IS IN EFFECT UFN. This means that if you are an insulting dick, nobody will ever see it.
LOL ~ "accidents and heart attacks"
ReplyDeleteToo bad the Russians don't believe NCOs and enlisted initiative...
ReplyDeleteAfter World War II... Russia deliberately avoided developing professional NCOs. They preferred to have officers take care of nearly all troop supervision. The Soviets failed to note that good NCOs were the key to effective troops. The Soviets felt that officers were more politically reliable, as they were more carefully selected and monitored. The NCOs that did exist were treated as slightly more reliable enlisted men but given little real authority. Since officers did not live with the men, slack discipline in the barracks gave rise to the vicious hazing and exploitation of junior conscripts by the senior ones. This led to very low morale, and a lot of suicides, theft, sabotage, and desertions.

Little wonder that atrocity and brutality is what their army is "good" at. That and just standing off and bombing everything flat... If some brave soul would just frag Putin....
