Larsen E. Pettifogger, SASS #32933 Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 Just saw a news clip on YouTube from CNN. Some Russian soldiers were sitting in a dirty room taking videos on their phones and posting them. They said they had been drafted 11 days ago, boarded a bus in Moscow and were dumped on the front lines in Ukraine. Their total training - they each got to fire three rounds out of their rifles. Just like in Afghanistan Russian mothers will ultimately be the ones that stop the war.
Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 yeah, I’ve read many reports like that. also Russia is not taking their dead home so they don’t have to pay death benefits. Also the dead don’t count as “dead”.
Sixgun Sheridan Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 All of this could be stopped just by killing ONE person.

Buckshot Bear Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 Anyone see the Youtube videos of the Ukraine drones dropping single hand grenades on Russians sitting in fox holes, down tank turrets etc etc ?

Both sides are using drones to drop grenades and other explosives on each other.
Buckshot Bear Posted October 14, 2022 Posted October 14, 2022 8 minutes ago, Sedalia Dave said: Both sides are using drones to drop grenades and other explosives on each other. Probably, but the Ukrainians are publishing theirs video of the grenade drops.

Много, много. Oh, sorry, many many videos. And they are all pro-UAF. I did not see a single pro Russian video.

I suspect that 99% of the operators are inept. I also believe that a lot of them are being used on Ukrainian civilians and they do not want to document their war crimes.
Utah Bob #35998 Posted October 14, 2022 Posted October 14, 2022 I’ve seen some dropping mortar rounds but not grenades.
Buckshot Bear Posted October 14, 2022 Posted October 14, 2022 Little bit shocked with some of the footage that YouTube is allowing, they are deleting gun vids from the like of Hickock45 etc but allowing death/kill videos.
Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted October 15, 2022 Posted October 15, 2022 Well......that's Youtube for you.

Russia’s excuse has been that the drones that they bought from Iran don’t work.
Sedalia Dave Posted October 15, 2022 Posted October 15, 2022 Just now, Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 said: Russia’s excuse has been that the drones that they bought from Iran don’t work. That too.
Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted October 15, 2022 Posted October 15, 2022 There has often been a question of “Where is the rest of the Russian Army?” many are Air Force, most are on the other Russian borders, the longest of which is with China. I saw a report that they have reassigned the 18 MGAD (machine gun and artillery division) from the Pacific coast to Donetsk. It is not a mobile unit so the thought is that it can defend a static location. It is only a 3500 man division. I imagine the trans Siberia railway has a busy week.
Buckshot Bob Posted October 15, 2022 Posted October 15, 2022 Apparently the Ukraine pissed off Musk when they told him to go pound sand with his peace plan. Apparently he’s cutting off the free internet https://www.cnn.com/2022/10/13/politics/elon-musk-spacex-starlink-ukraine/index.html
Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted October 15, 2022 Posted October 15, 2022 More about Russia’s 18 MGAD. It was defending the Kuril Islands which СССР, USSR, took from Japan after WW2 and Russia does not want to give back. I think 18 MGAD has gotten fat and lazy. Now Japan would dearly love to get those islands back and with no shore batteries, hmmmm. patch of 18 MGAD
