Cheap comments...no basis in fact..you can’t compare the military situation, strategically, or tactically, to a Revolutionary war battlefield..You have absolutely no idea what modern weapons can do. Tell you what, I’ll put you out in a tank, in the open....no air support, and let’s see what you do when the Russian send a few anti-tank missile in your direction
Yes, and the Americans didn’t march in lockstep in open fields to get slaughtered. Which would be today’s equivalent of using tanks and trenches. They fought unconventionally. Thats the whole point. Tanks and trenches are guaranteed losers.
