Thanks Don, I read how the Russians are advancing 500 to maybe 1500 meters here and there are they making any real advances slowly or just trading places here and there

Generally, the Russians are slowly advancing. The rate varies by location. In some locations they don't advance for several months despite attacking. Where the Russians are advancing the fastest, by far, is the Pokrovsk-Avdiivka area, where they are averaging a kilometer a week since the fall of the city.

Ukrainian advances have been limited to about 500 meters two spots in Kharkiv and 1.5 km in two spots in the Kreminna forest.

All of a sudden years of duck hunting as a kid in California actually counts as useful combat training.

See, orcs, if the drone is still just a speck in the sky, your shot ain't doing jack squat. B for effort, D- for execution. This mallard won.
