In war, all the important things are simple. And all the simple things are hard. Two of Murphy's Laws of Warfare. And people just don't get how hard some of this stuff is. "Pulling back? How hard is that to do? And the Ukrainians lost men and equipment doing it? Obviously they are incompetent and deserve to lose." I heard that a lot from lots of folks who have never worn a uniform for a single day. I wish people would actually read more stuff like this before opening their mouths.

Thanks Tom, but personally I still think that the Kherson withdrawal was negotiated between the two sides. Even after it became very clear that the Russian were withdrawing, the ZSU didn’t try to destroy the remaining units.
