You have to be kidding. The Ukrainians are not fit to shine the shoes of a Patton or his WWII army.

Pattons Third Army went @400 miles in @45 days, during its dash across France, Aug 1-Sept 15 1944. Or about 9 miles a day.

Rommels 7th Panzer, its own dash during the Battle of France’s “sichelshnitt”, that made Rommels reputation, made about 160 miles in 12 days, 12 May - 24 May 1940, or about 13 miles/day.

The Ukrainians just did about 45-50 miles in three days (and thats conservative), or 15.5 miles/day.
