If you're new here thanks for coming across, I served in the Australian Infantry from 2014-2021, With specialist qualifications in Heavy Weapons/Anti-Armour, Combat First Aid, With a tour to Afghanistan as a crew commander of a Armoured Mobility Vehicle.
Upon my Return I was unexpectedly diagnosed with a Incurable and Inoperable Brain tumour that is slowly killing me. I was also awarded the Queens Order of Australia Medal (OAM) hence the post nominals after my name. Then Being medically separated from the Army I flew to Ukraine in 2022 for 6.5months and now make content full time. I really appreciate you being here Thankyou

NAFO likes to call everything Russian propaganda, but when I ask them if Ukraine does propaganda they don't respond.
Every side does propaganda, you have to be naive to not take it as a fact. Problem is, that ruzzian propaganda is way worse in the way that harms the individual and society. Their lies, the spreading of extremism, setting buildings on fire using paid strangers, etc, the list goes on and on. Meanwhile UK´s propaganda is more about finding funds for army and saying that everything is okay when it is not okay on the battlefield. Can you see the difference? The russia spreads a lot of misinformation to hurt and to establish influence, UK´s trying to get money to defend. I´d rather choose UK´s form of propaganda.
To paint such a broad brush over all of NAFO, when within are folks from all walks with all beliefs and backgrounds, is akin to saying all cats are black. It just doesn't fit.
@@QuietCanadianexcept in this case they are all black!
Same goes the other way around when you talk about pro-Russian people
@@QuietCanadianevery experience with any NAFO commenter would have me disagree. But what do I know, I am just a putinist. 🤷
Not the sharpest tool......
He fights for Ukraine, what do you expect.
@@Olegstuff21986 Thats rich coming from a Putintard in a comment section
Still in the tripple digit iq. More than most proRu can boast.
an absolute moron ...
Definitely a tool though.
I just can never get around these articulate and likely intelligent people can see complexity in the Israel / Gaza conflict but are then blind to the complexity of the Russia / Ukr conflict and the part the west has in this....
Always downplaying the nuance and complexities for the sole purpose of fear mongering.
It's called propaganda bro. Don't worry Willy's mysterious tumor will get him the moment Ukraine loses this exaggerated civil war and his Five-Eyes check stops showing up.
Well, the more intelligent somebody is the higher the possibility of self delusion can get, with enough turning & twisting of arguments and information everything can be internally rationalised if the bias is strong enough. All of the guys interviewed were there for their own emotional reasons and because they were looking for a meaning by helping the "underdog", but tbh it could be every other conflict within their possibility to reason that one side is right and the other wrong, even back in the syrian civil war there were plenty of foreigners involved, probably has been like this since the dawn of warfare but only in the last decades it has been documented, the constant migration of emotionally damaged mercs looking for some cause to make them whole again, but thats just my opinion.
The Israel / Gaza conflict *is* more complex than the Ukraine war imo, but still I agree the situation in Ukraine is not so black and white either.
I also don't understand why most of them hide their irrational hatred of Russia. They don't look stupid enough to believe in "unprovoked aggression".
what a monster one must be to justify the war on iraq and afganistan in 2024 after all we know.
Stupid monster!
well said..this guy is stupid as it comes,, the quicker it becomes manure for soil in ukraine, the better for humanity
Iraq was about WMD's, then it turned out they don't have much, just the some old crap the West sold Saddam years before. So a million people died for what? Regime change. Afghanistan was invaded for what? Because Bin Laden was there? He was not. Because of the Taliban? They spent 20 years, a trillion dollars, then they handed over the country to the same guys who they killed for 20 years, and left billions of worth of equipment there, to be sold around the world. US weapons from the Afghani stockpiles are showing up all over Africa.
I believe the civilian casualties example isn't so much about making them trivial but about showing the irony in how its argued by western governments as a war crime in one area but seen as a necessary evil in other war zones.
This bloke is well and truly propagandized. Ukraine is welcome to him. Hope he does the UK a favour and stays there.
It's crazy to hear just how much of a blunt instrument some soldiers are.
Thank you, that was almost the exact comment I put in earlier. He has been mentally ruined and ideologised. He’s better off remaining in Ukraine after this and not come ruin things for people around him here
don't worry, you are getting ethnically replaced in UK
@@greeneray He's helping Ukraine fight off an invader, what's the problem with that?
Do you think you could find a single RU soldier who would be any different. People who are willing to fight tend to be propagandized.......shocker
This bloke is kidding himself if he thinks we are all pro Ukraine
Yea he should know there people like u missing a chromosome , must be hard to tell right and wrong in your minds
And why would you be pro Russian and support Genocide of an innocent population of women, children, & men!?! Not to mention the eco-Genocide too!
Anyone who was actually pro Ukrainian should have also be against the continuation of this war.
If your pro RU you are either a bot or stupid. Both are bad. Crawl out of your basement!
I'm 100% pro-Russian, so are my friends and family. I'm also 100% Norwegian.

Thats the dumbest thing i've read all day.
@@Kredefjeset Contractors that use armed force in a warzone may be considered unlawful combatants in reference to a concept that is outlined in the Geneva Conventions and explicitly stated by the 2006 American Military Commissions Act, therefore Mercenaries can be considered as war criminals and have no protection from the Geneva Convention.
@@JohnSmith-fr7js So same goes for Wagner then, right?
He does have some of the better interviews out that!
@@Kredefjeset The Wagner Group is a Russian private military company (Wagner PMC) consisting of Russian volunteers with a legal status in Russia
International law makes it clear that only an individual that is not a citizen of a country involved in an armed conflict can be categorized as a mercenary.
That is, under no circumstances can either citizens of Ukraine or citizens of Russia participating in the armed conflict between Russia and Ukraine be categorized as mercenaries. The side they are fighting for is irrelevant.
“Mercenaries are only people that are citizens of a third country. This is a key criterion,” stresses Maksym Tymochko, lawyer, a specialist in international law. (From information listed in Article 47 of Additional Protocol 1 to the Geneva Conventions, and in Article 447 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine.”)
The U.S. has similar P.M.C.'s such as Blackwater P.M.C.

More like the last 50 years..
@tonyballiviero5387 last 30 years? Easy. None. Oh, fighting ISIS while the USA was trying to undermine Syria, one of the only nations actually interested in getting rid of ISIS.
That guy wasn't on the frontline. Probably he was just instructor somewhere on the Polish border.
When he mentioned about smoke grenades I turned off this bullsihiting, this is bizarre incomeptence. He has no idea what he's talking about:
In this war, every squad has a link to artillery and AGS support and Mavics with drops.
1. The smoke from even a few grenades creates a small coverage area.
2. You need time to create smoke, during which time the enemy is already aiming there at least AGS. The smoke begins to act as a landmark for artillery aiming.
3. Everything RPG, Mortars, Maivcs, Machine Guns starts shooting into the smoke.
Update:
After he mentioned about minefields. There was no minefields in Bakhmut. Minefields was in Soledar and a bit after Soledar it's on the north. On the South there was no minefields at all, maybe some traps in forest areas, but not a fields. The antitank mines was everywhere, right, but you can not defuse them by man. I don't know, maybe he's faking some facts to make the story more interesting.
He said he had fought in Afghanistan war . Against troops who only had sandals and ak
@@AprezaRenaldy Didn't he specifically say he didn't?

Speak Russian. That is different from identity as.
@@CheeseLovingGuyCrimeans identify themselves as russian. Eastern ukrainians identify themselves are ethnic russian Ukrainians. And none of the above identify themselves as western ukrainians, which claim to be "The pure ukrainians". And those are the folks that are running the country since 2014.
@@CheeseLovingGuy why do you think 30% Ukrainian refugees end up fleeing to Russia? Thid is Eurostat numbers, not mine.
Nobody in the UK has been given any opportunity to vote on whether we want to spend vast amounts of our taxes on this war.
It's absolutely nothing to do with the UK population, we have no say whatsoever.
You don't, how many do realising exactly what Russia has done.
Budapest agreement 1996, look it up.
Your say is in who you choose to vote for on the ballots. Welcome to how Democracies function and I'm sorry about the coma you've apparently been in for decades.
Don't worry no country populace does. Not Russians nor mobilised Russians. But at least you get a chance to vote in a fair election unlike countries controlled by dictators. So enjoy that side of things.
You have a King and Lords born into their office as the highest legislators in the land.
City of London is an independent enclave state within the state of the United Kingdom.
Such is life.
The guy is a big fan of the "Good Guys and Bad Guys" concept. And even if the Good Guys have killed many more people than the Bad Guys, it's important to pay attention to intent. Yes, the Good Guys are absolute champions at killing, but all these killings were done with good intentions, for the triumph of certain values, freedom and all that. In addition, they belong to first-class world countries, which again is proof of the high civilizational mission of all the murders and devastation carried out. The Bad Guys weren't as successful in terms of body count, but their intentions were so disgusting that they can't be justified like the Good Guys.
He's brainwashed for sure, loyal ONLY to "the crown", whatever tf that is!
we are all living in a marvel movie.
It might be just religion bro. Capitalism/Prosperity theology. ..but that aside, you reminded of Pro Wrestling, with babyfaces and heels. Which sometimes does help with categorizing things. For example for the NHL finals. Edmonton Oilers are the babyfaces because no Canadian team has won the championship since 1994. Panthers are the heels because it is kind of fun to see Canada failing to win the title, even tho they developed the game.
Intentions? Good guys, bad guys? Start by Clausewitz, "On War," and go from there. Nobody is Captain America.
There are no good guys . Only bad guys , worse guys and worst guys.
Crazy to hear this young guy say Israel's conflict is compex and Ukraine is straightforward. Has no one explained the violent coup, backed by the west, that destabilized Ukraine and Russian relations back in 2014? Crazy that Ukrainian foreign fighters also really haven't heard what has happened to any of zelenskys political opposition or opposition to the war in general. I wish Willy would ask some of these guys the hard questions.
Willy is a complete simp for these guys, if there was an in person interview Willy’s knees would be sore. Willy likes to say he is independent media but then says “how are WE fighting over there?” And can’t stop smiling
Proves Joseph Gobbles intelligence.
As soon as he said that, I'm sure I was giving the phone "Forest Whittaker eye". As if any conflict is simple and straightforward. Talk about putting your ignorance out on display for the world.
The Gazan genocide is massively more complex than the Russian war in Ukraine.
@Nun195 given that there's no genocide, you may need to re-evaluate what you think you know about that conflict.
NATO tactics always rely on air support, that Ukraine does not have.
Air Support does not work with peer level integrated air defense.
Lol , the best pitch not to join The British Army, forget about that!
Look for suckers elsewhere, mate
This guy has clearly not seen the frontline, he'd be dead, and I'm not joking
He wrote from the safety behind his keyboard.
Have you been to the frontline? How'd you know?
@@Jatzkithe thousands yard stare
@@ac43942 exactly why I asked
Says the guy with a wealth of experience on the frontlines of a peer-on-peer conflict and what it takes psychologically to function in this environment... right? Right? No? Oh.
This is funny he is saying about Soviet tactics. Soviet tactics were full of massive attack, in Ukraine, they go in small groups. He does not say what exactly tacktics, while Ukraininas who went for training to the West have stated many times that things NATO was teaching them do not work. Menawhile Western Instructors said that ukrainians are very stubborn and dont want to learn.
It's fairly obvious what he's saying. Soviet tactics is a euphemism for the total disregard the Soviet, and now Russian, military has for its foot soldiers. They are entirely expendable and treated as numbers. NATO-aligned military doctrine is far more sensitive to human losses and it's reflected in their operations. There is likely a clash between these two ideologies in the Ukrainian ranks.
@@rickyspanish1590 well, this is a lie then. Russia carries out operations in many different areas using small group of soldiers. There is no "all out attack" WW2 tactics. What he is saying about Russian soldiers being forced on the minefields unarmed is laughable. See numbers of soldiers deployed and tell me who's the one not counting human loses. This kid has a perception of Russian army based on Hollywood movies.
@@GuayusaPure You're making up things I said just to argue against them and talk past me. If you want to actually address what I said, feel free. Otherwise enjoy talking to the walls.
@@rickyspanish1590 you are talking nonsense, that's all
@@rickyspanish1590 the old "Ukraine is more humane and casualty sensitive, while bad wolf Russians come in human waves..."
You 🤡
Ukraine doesn't give a zh!t about her soldiers. The Ukrainian people know that.
The Ukrainians criminal neglect in not building defensive fighting positions and the rampant corruption BETRAY your fairy tale.
Well, this interview shines a great white light on the conflict.
Next time, Will should get Tomas the Tank Engine and Peppa Pig to discuss why Putin is a bad man, like Hitler.
The guy is just waffling on and on without saying much.
because he has nothing to say that he actually believes in
I'll probably add to this comment as I get further into the interview. First thing I'm reacting to is how casually the subject attributed sheltering in schools as something "the Russians did a lot in the early days of the war". It seems either disingenuous or ignorant to single out Russia exclusively as the party that used schools (and other civilian infrastructure like hospitals etc.), when we had like a million photos and videos of Ukrainian soldiers living in and using such buildings, probably at least 100x of that of the Russians.
Yes....this is why I could spot the BS narrative about Al-Shifa a mile away. I know what it looks like when a military uses a hospital as an installation....and that wasn't it.
Amnesty International released report August 2022 saying Ukraine fighting tactics used schools apartments and hospitals that put civilians in danger from Russian strikes.
And willy caught it out on him mentioning the Amnesty Intl expose of that exact ukkkrainian tactic. Willy been black pilled
@@tegdirb7062 Yeah! They investigated 51-52 cases and found clear evidence for 47 or 48 of them. It's interesting that the civilians were russian speaking ukrainians and when the Ukrainian army had to abandon the post they striped the civilians from their cloths and got away dressed up as civilians. The outcry from the western media against Amnesty was mind-blowing. The pro-ukrainian media was glorifying the Ukrainian army for being soooo smart and clever tactics. That was one of the first red flags for me that something was terribly wrong about this war.
I'm glad at least Willy called him out for that
He doesn’t believe Russian casualties are that low, maybe cos he can’t get his head around how Ukraine loses so much in a battle and expects it’s the same on the other side. Ukraine is fighting for land, Russia is fighting to reduce Ukrainian military personnel. One side fights PR and ideological (n.zi) wars, the other side is fight based on strategy, no wonder one side is always running out of men,while the other still has volunteers in training camps for the last 12 months getting proper training, not drag someone off the streets and 3 days later he’s dead in a trench
Russia isn't fighting for land?
It's been about nothing else for 10 years.
@@user-ul9dv2iv9sso, opinion of those people who voted independence from Nazi Ukrainian brigades doesn't matter?
@@user-ul9dv2iv9she means they aren't fighting for territorial gains. Meaning, it's easier to set up firing positions and let your enemy continue to send more and more reinforcements to hold positions that can not be held.
This is why the territorial gains have been slow, but the discrepancy in losses is wide.
The ISW was recently discussing the advantages of training newly mobilized at the front. The spin they put on it was truly sickening.
@@user-ul9dv2iv9s cmon... you cant be serious.
That "enemy using meatwave asoults" has allways been an excuze when sombody lost a battle. Allso these Westren propaganda of "endles Russian numbers" is getting old. Russia and Ukraine deploy roughly the same manpower, althou the numbers are starting to add up on the Russian side. If any, Ukis had more casulties all in all due to the Russian advantige in arty and Ukis forced to make their taktics based on politics meaning forced to not withraw and attack to justyfie westren aid.
Smart move on "Mistake's" but i think this channel is monitored any way by the feds
Facts💯 Harsh reality for many... Only the ratio of artillery (and it being the biggest killer on the fronts) says enough.
Only meatwaves you see are coming from Ukraine.
Pumping hundreds and thousands of soldiers into a cauldron (= the worst situation you can be in on a battlefield) nor nothing more but PR show? Meatwave.
Sending hundred after hundred of soldiers on the other side of a river with zero backup, zero chance to do anything there that couldn't be done the same way from your side of the river, again just for PR? Meatwave.
Russia never did anything of that.
Mediazona proved just recently that Prigozhin was right.
About 20,000 kia in Bakhmut
17,000 former inmates.
As Wagner hired 50,000 prisoners, YOU do the maths.
As traditions are so important to the current Kremlin leadership, this is one firmly adhered to by the Russian military.
So, every single one of those prisoners died in Bakhmut?
This guy and his views on "good and evil" lol
We see how NATO tactic works,they never won a fcking War.😂
Ukrainian offensive was using Nato tactics. We know how that went.
Are you dumb? Havent won a war? The goal in the mucker East was to remove alquieda which they did. Afghanistan was used as a test bed for new weapons. Russia failed there and it was on their own borders.

Didnt his own person kill him or that was someone else?
Truthfully, he said worse things about Ukraine.
@@davogeorge4525 Because he wasn't given command and he seen how bad of a joke the Ukrainian command was by his third interview. In his first, he had a cocky, arrogant attitude, belittling Russia for everything. Some of the criticisms was on point, but he was acting like Russia was doing everything wrong.

@Chopchop432 yep, trying to recruit other servicemen, taking them away from their actual professional careers, pensions, etc. Bet that went down well at the bar after work every night.
Perhaps he succumbed to Ukrainian Nazi propaganda, which inspired many weak-minded people that the Soviet Union was winning by simply throwing the bodies of its soldiers at the most modern, best-armed and experienced army of the time, which was the Wehrmacht army.
I'm sorry, but who defeated the Wehrmacht?

Also , Willy when he says "we " , means west/ukraine.
Never knew there exists a distinction of being a mercenary for one side (good guys) and the other side (bad guys) Would it be one side pays better or does it make the mercenary feel better thinking he's helping the "good side"?
Wagner is by definition a Private Military Company... The international Legion is a government military. there's is your difference.
Ukrainian losses are many times greater. So think about the one who does not spare his own and others. In Russia there are no such endless cemeteries with military personnel as in Ukraine, this is simply a fact.
In Russia, there was one partial mobilization for 300 thousand people, the rest were contract volunteers. And in Ukraine, people are herded into vans on the streets like pigs and taken to slaughter against their will. You have a wrong view of reality.

Russia have not leaned with Palestine- they were constantly supporting them since Soviet Union times.
u watched a 2 hour interview within 18 minutes or did you just post this comment no matter what the content is?
Russia is not the Soviet Union.
What is Russia supposed to have "learned"??
Russia never supported Palestine. If that was the case then Israel wouldn't have existed in the first place.
Soviet union was the very first nation to recognise Israel. Because they wanted a communist anti west govt in the middle east.
But after this U Turn by Israel , they went against Israel .
Israelis are themselves to blame as wellb for supporting regime changes instead of seeking for long term mutual benefits for both sides.
The Soviet Union back then supported a lot of Arab Countries back then and a lot of those Arab Countries were Regime Changed for doing so.

Поясните про убежища в школах? Да, армии с обеих сторон занимают позиции и устраивают пункты временной дислокации в школах. Но в это время там нет детей. Какое же это прикрытие мирным населением? А вот когда всу использует склады торговых центров, почтовой службы и другие объекты, не убрав оттуда гражданских, вот это уже называется прикрываться мирным населением. Армия может занимать и использовать гражданские объекты. Но не должна их использовать совместно с гражданскими людьми.

@@larrymac8538Thanks to western sanctions, rich Russians can no longer send their children to the west. They can't invest in western countries, either.
This will only mean that the wealthy Russians are now forced to invest in Russia or "friendly nations". These policies, once again, will have the opposite effect as I assume was intended. They will make Russian stronger, not only financially, but also because the wealthy Russian children will no longer be exposed to western propaganda at these institutions.
There will not be such an administration after the war ends.
What about the Ukrainian troops in Mariupol in hospitals as they have backup generators and solar panels and batteries. 5 times less civilians killed by the Russians, yet a hundred times the firepower. Russians trying their best not to kill civilians.
Exactly what Col Douglas MacGregor has been saying. Russians have been slow and methodical as not to kill civilians unnecessarily.

This guy is foolish. The Ukrainians will be lucky to hold on to Odessa.
Willy, your guest talks about the need to break away from "Soviet tactics". Ask this question: How long has American trainers been working with the Ukrainians teaching NATO tactics? I know of US units that were in Ukraine since 2015 and that didn't seem to weed out bad tactical discipline. The Ukrainians seem to be locked into the Kruzschev Stalingrad tactics of never retreating in the face of superior enemy fire. Don't forget that Kruzschev was Ukrainian.
It looks to me like the only belligerent to ditch the old "Soviet tactics" have been the Russians. They appears that the Russians have the upper hand in adapting to battlefield conditions.

But does Donetsk, Luhansk, and Crimea even want to be part of Ukraine? Because it sure does not seem like it.
Good question but this guy still doesn't know what the fuck he's talking about
This is why Russia started to incorporate Wagner personnel to start leading fire teams/sections of 5 lads like a junior NCO would. Its time to dispell all this "meat wave" stuff. Neither side has the "meat" awful effing term. they dont have it to waste in such fashion. People on both sides just have their confirmation biases reinforced constantly, thats a huge problem. If they saw things for what they were, they'd want both sudes round the negotiating table ASAP. These are nice young men. Tragic.
Fact is, Soviet doctrine was for World War 3, run, because tactical nukes will be used.

The nerve to criticise which countries support Palestine and those who support Israel, classic Western brainrot
Don't you know the West are by definition the good guys? If the west partakes in warcrimes, genocide and human rights abuses, it is because they mean well at heart. 😂
I can see you weren't listening to the video but took the first chance to start a fight. Willy wasn't saying it's good or bad morally to support Israel or Palestine. He said that it might not be in Ukraine's best interest to openly support Israel, because pro-palestine people might change sides on the Ukraine war as well because of that.
@@Jatzki I wasn’t talking about Willy I was talking about the other guy going on about “sketchy” countries who support Palestine but Israel being supported by the “modern civilisation” or whatever it was he said. Sounds like you didn’t listen either.

Кхем. Россия за все время провела одну мобилизацию на 300к, не закрывала границу, не собирается проводить вторую мобилизацию и даже не собирается полностью мобилизовываться ради конфликта. Украина до сих пор проводит мобилизацию, закрыла границу, ужесточила законы по этой самой мобилизации, ТЦК пачками гребет население, которое даже под угрозой утонуть или быть застреленным просто бежит за границу. В общем, налицо явная нехватка личного состава (куда предыдущий делся кстати?), но при этом почему то именно РФ не считается с потерями, мобилизовала всех (кого всех? Я тут в запасе до сих пор сижу нетронутый) и просто готова кидать кучу солдат без поддержки на вражеские позиции? Еще раз - Украина ужесточает законы, говорит о нехватке солдат и испытывает сильное моральное истощение, но солдат не бережет РФ? Я никак не могу перестать смеяться с этого. Вилли, ты извини конечно, но после этих слов твоего собеседника всерьез воспринимать, кроме как клоуна, вообще невозможно. Исходя из такой логики у нас тогда населения не ~150млн, а все 300-400млн должно быть по идее, чтобы безболезненно воспринимать потери, которые нам приписывают
Дополню. Вот опять, тезис "Они избивают своих, они не жалеют свои жизни" и тд - может исходить от человека, который вообще не в курсе все той армейской кухни, которая есть в РФ. Ты можешь знатно выхватить, если твои действия поставили под угрозу твою жизнь, жизнь твоих товарищей или исход задачи (если грубо). Если совсем уж проще: если твоя тупость опасна для окружающих - выхватывать ты будешь часто. И не просто потому что мы тут все орки бесчувственные, а потому что в стрессе это единственный доходчивый способ объяснить где ты не прав. И да, за растрату личного состава жестко наказывают. Это может сходить с рук высокому начальству, но и то не долго. Были у нас тут личности некоторые...
Короче, ничего толкового за почти 2 часа. Предыдущие интереснее были. И да, если ты не можешь понять менталитет своего врага, то не удивляйся тому, что у тебя ничего не получается, а фронт почему то двигается не туда куда надо.

The brutality of the Russian army is legendary.
How many families will do anything to keep their sons out of there.
You should know the way Russia recruits for its army.
Surrounding small towns far away from cameras.
Entering factories trawling for men.
Who would be dumb enough to enter a recruitment establishment unless their INTENTION was to enlist.
You are also aware of the enormous pressure to conform.
And you must be aware that the army is so desperate that it is now moving into Moscow and St Petersburg for recruits.
A move avoided before because they don't know what resistance they might encounter.

After the war, Marshal Zhukov addressed the topic of "charging through minefields" by explaining that the German minefields were usually set with enfilading MG36/42 nests, barbed wire and other obstacles, and presighted artillery, and that having soldiers crawling through poking around for Bouncing Bettys was costing more lives than simply charging the damn positions, and mine-detectors were something the Americans had access to, but a German sniper would immediately recog ise someone with any such equipment in the Red Army and quickly have a bullet put through him. Minefiekds, as the Ukrainians learned last year, are there to slow yiu down so that other, more lethal, ordnance can be rained down upon you while you're poking in the ground with a bayonet like a sitting duck. He knew they were taking on 80% of the entire German Army, leaving mostly cooks, clerks, convalescing wounded and communications troops to take on the the US and other allied forces in France and Italy, and those same reserve units were the ones who stopped Market Garden in its tracks. My granddad, who fought from 1942 and only came home in 48, said thank God the Soviets had taken the vast brunt on because otherwise those millions dead would've likely included him and most of his mates. The Eastern Front was a completely different war than anything we've seen before, or hopefully ever will in future.
