True, but, the Americans were by that time generally excellent with logistics.
As for the present, let’s say only 1000 anti-tank missiles have been fired at that convoy, in carefully chosen locations.

I always wondering why Trump promoted Gen. Milley to the position of Chairman of JCS. Was there no other officer more qualified? I’ve asked that question here many times and nobody seems to know. Trump himself had never addressed it.
Quite a bit of the Ukrainian army itself is tied up in the East.
However, Javelin missiles in selected locations would certainly be an explanation for a slowed convoy.
Trump made a lot of bad personnel decisions. He took advice from the wrong people.
Where are the pictures?
Napoleon’s army couldn’t survive the winter or the resistance
Hitler just had too many fronts going
Both Napoleon and Hitler were defeated by Russian winters. Ironic that Russia would be defeated by a Ukrainian winter.
What’s a factor of 1000 between fellow Freepers?
Ukraine was part of Russia in napoleons day and part of the Soviet Union in hitlers
I wonder who these wrong people he took bad advice from are? Are they still advising Trump?
It is one of those buffer countries that seem destined to take the brunt of wars.
The Poles can than Heaven that it’s not them, this time around.
...thank...
A few are still with him. Many left after the damage was done.
It is thought that his daughter Ivanka and her husband, Jared Kushner, have been among his closest advisors.
I see your point. Thanks.
Rumor has it that Milley “interviewed well” and was an Ivy Leaguer (like Trump) and not from West Point.
If the Russian military is this damn incompetent, and on the verge of destroying itself, why does Ukraine need any aid from the US or any NATO country? The MSM is making it sound like the Russian Army is just evaporating.
I’m not buying that!
Disinfo du jour. Every morning it’s a new dish of BS shoveled up for the neocon rubes’ enjoyment.
I would almost bet that Russians know how to gather wood and and build a cozy fire.
Stupid headline made up by even stupider editor for click bait purposes. Troops are NOT sitting in there vehicles - they are disbursed in the surrounding woods keeping warm with wood fueled fires.
Even if it were not for the cold - it would be stupid to remain cooped up in vehicles, while not moving, during a war where on party likes to destroy convoys.
Because Russian tanks only evaporate when hit with a US Javelin.
