I recall a story, possibly from the 1956 Hungarian Revolution, that someone placed china dinner plates on the street upside down, with the poor vision from inside tanks, they slow or step to try to determine of they were mines, making them targets for Molotov cocktails from nearby buildings.  However, my recollection is also that the "Russian" response was to shoot out the lower floors of suspect buildings causing them to collapse and they weren't very discriminating on which buildings they'd collapse.

Links to said videos?



There’s been tons of pics of kraut armor with Bundeswehr stuff half painted over or not at all.



I'm following more than 30 twitter channels and sub reddits.

Pictures of any German deliveries are rare. Some Panzerfaust 3 pictures at the beginning of the war.

Some footage about the Panzerhaubitze 2000, some drone videos of the PARM mines. But besides this, only snippets on private twitter channels.

Most of the time the media is showing stock photos or videos from Germany.


And there are no Iron Crosses at all on the actual photos of German equipment in Ukraine, the Germans are pretty anal about this.



If you have pictures or videos about German equipment in the Ukraine, I would really appreciate links to said informations.

It's going to be a bit of time and testing, even for us to get good numbers of them.

That’s from getting weakened by the large fire, not a “downward blast”. Even the rails / train wheels were deformed by that heat; you can bet a simple guardrail will too.

I think thats why we've seen a disproportionate number of our side infected with these mind viruses. People worried about the 'fake news' are ironically far more likely to seek out and consume actual Fake News.

I've found Reuters is the best of the mainstream 'whats going on in the world today' global news sources. Very news driven, globally sourced by reporters actually on the ground world wide. There is no editorial section and minimal 'narrative.' Not perfect but its the best 'go to' source of news in a single website.

Al Jazeera has also had excellent Ukraine coverage.

But a trench is impossible to camouflage, don’t have overhead cover, and are very vulnerable to drones and proximity fuses.

I suspect both sides got used to them 2014-2021 and don’t know any better.

The US went to foxholes, along with everyone else, mostly, in WWII. Easier to dig when your halted for a short while, camouflage, and put overhead cover on.  Generally, dogfaces had to stay put in their holes sunup to sundown, or get shot.  But if the enemy lines aren’t that close, and you’re getting pounded by artillery and UAVs, a better bet then a trench.

https://i.redd.it/e2xmh39ycoaz.jpg

You need some lumber for a roof but I can’t imagine how we can supply HIMARS and not wood and sandbags.

There was a US officer in WWI, named Depuy, who became indignant that Germans dug better holes then us.  They would put a berm of dirt in the front and if suppressed, shoot around the side of their cover and catch the attacker in a crossfire.  A US trooper had to duck down in the bottom of his hole and couldn’t stick his head up.  Think of Private Blythe in BoB.  

30 years later, Depuy made the Army conduct tests on what the best type of hole was, statistically prove his hole was better, and change the FMs to choose his type of hole.  He happened to be correct, and we’ve done it that way ever since.  The US Army fighting position is easier to put overhead cover on, and camouflage.

I also saw that video. To me, it definitely looked like the place started to light up while the truck was still on the bridge, a half second before everything was obscured by bright light. On the other hand, it could have been a change in sunlight just before the explosion happened.
