Wut?

What was left out of the interview was that Col Milburn went on to say that the military commanders in the western part of Ukraine were getting the fully equipped before it was going to Donbas area. From what friends who served anywhere from Vietnam up to recent years have always stated is that everyone in the rear is geared first.
Take Vietnam, Budweiser donated large volumes of beer for the troops. With two former coworkers who served in separate battalions, the one who never saw the front had a case of beer a day, the one who was at the front never saw single beer.
Logistics has been a huge issue in Ukraine. The Russian made trucks are pieces of crap. Troops are driving to the front in their personal vehicles. Much of the army near the front is a bunch equivalent to Redneck Bubbas who just jumped into the fight because it is their homeland

I wonder whose hands all the unaccounted for US weapons will end up in this time.
I just read the article and nowhere did it assert that US weapons were unaccounted for.

That would be the first time in history.

In the interview of Milburn, he does say that the US oversight stops at the border. What was CUT from the interview is that local commanders who are guarding the border where the Russians were completely defeated and retreated out of Ukraine are getting the gear first because both they really didn't have much gear and because the lack of logistics with men driving to the front in their personal vehicles.

Russian Uragan Multiple rocket launchers are trying to counter the M777 howitzers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine
Russia is trying to use rocket artillery to counter the M777 howitzers of the Ukrainian military.
Ukrainian artillery operators and volunteers report the Russians using Uragan multiple rocket launchers against the American-made howitzers.
The M777 towed howitzer with a 155 millimeters barrel and a 39 calibers length has a range of 24 kilometers when using the conventional shells.
In turn, the 220 mm BM-27 Uragan multiple rocket launcher has a range of 35 kilometers.
more details....

OMLShark doesn’t care about facts. He just spouts his bullshite and doesn’t engage in actual discussions. He just jumps from one incorrect talking point to another, and then falls back on hysterical paranoia or conspiracy theories when he is proven to be wrong.

If you have followed the war coverage on twitter at all then you will realize that he is one of the more accurate and unbiased posters covering the war.

And as I've said from the start of the thread, I'm not cool with that. If we're giving them any money or supplies, I want to know exactly where they're going. This complete bull shite.
Everything is complete bullshite to you unless it is helping the Russians.

“Winning” and “losing” are pretty ambitious concepts in war absent total domination. It’s a matter of objective fact that Russia has not dominated Ukraine in a military sense. Nor has Russia significantly expanded the territory under its control from the pre-war situation. For a “superpower,” that’s an objectively poor showing.

Do you think the 100bil we have sent is sitting in escrow TBoy or do you think its been squandered?

Then why are you posting in thread about a war between Russia and Ukraine if you don’t support either side?
I’m an American. Why should I be compelled to support either side?
Moreover, because our tard leadership has gotten us in to this, why should I not be able to at least take part in the discourse?
You self-appointed gatekeepers in this thread are the worst.
