The casual American military observer reading the NYT might wonder how it is that the Soviets seem able to rip apart German defenses in a matter of a day or two, and have exploitations that cover hundreds of miles. And the Americans...don’t.

They might be concerned about that.

Who are “they?”
The Russians have no concern for the lives of their soldiers. Push through no matter the risk or the loss of life. Whereas we would stop and call up the quad 50s or air attack or artillery to soften up the foe. In addition, if we weren’t supplying Russia with all its war material,we would be more comfortable in attacking being so well supplied.
