Combined arms effects in the fight for baghdad when i was a two star general and its terrifying for the enemy. the difference this time compared to last fall when the ukrainians carried out a very successful attack is when the lead elements culminate after 96 hours, its as far as you can physically go, there are follow—on forces that will capitalise and exploit and maintain the momentum and continue this. then i think the russians have to react. they have to move to try to re—establish their...
