#1 "For example we have found that the enemies suffer weaknesses in conducting operations in close range fighting," he noted.

in other words, "grab hold of their belt buckles"--general Giap.

#9 We will destroy them from long and medium range, and then ~~just~~ hire the survivors to clean up the rubble at close range.
