#3  An old acquaintance was a radio teletype operator for the airborne division and noted that there was over a kilometer of 'commo wire' betwixt him and the Division HQ. For fear of falling katyushas in the Reds came over the border...

What I wonder from this story is if the site was spotted because some idiot(s) were two busy texting their girlfriends to understand why EMCON is a good idea in a shooting war.

#1   The USA should train Ukraine pilots on our F 15/16 platforms and for Apache operations and be done with this war.

Russia is beyond corrupt, not enough honor to fill 1 thimble in that entire land mass.

The losers can't even defeat Ukraine, they are not a threat to Europe. Just improve the sanctions and let them be the "special people" Russians think they are all to themselves.

Oh, pray for them. They need it.
