Tässä on Amerikkalaisen Green Beretin haastattelu.
A Former U.S. Green Beret Fought In Iraq, Afghanistan, And Ukraine. He Says Ukraine Is His Generation's 'Most Righteous War.'
Huomio aluksi siitä että USA:ssa koulutus on liialti terrorismipainoitteista jolloin ne ei ole edes poteroita opetellut kaivamaan:
I went down to Fort Bragg (recently renamed Fort Liberty) and talked to the officers going through the Green Beret course. And the things I harped on the most were basics, basics, basics. I asked all of them, "When's the last time any of you dug a fighting position? Went out in the woods and dug a fighting position?" None of them raised their hands. They've never done it. "When was the last time you went out in the woods and did a squad attack?" -- which is a battle drill that is one of those things that should just happen automatically.
Muutama ote Ukrainan koulutuksen tasosta:
"Let's take the Kraken detachment (a Ukrainian special forces unit), for example. We worked with them in the spring, at the time, not super proficient, but they were effective. And that's what matters, you know, and I'm sure those guys have become more proficient over time."
"That's all well and good. But you have to keep in mind that the Ukrainian military has gone from 196,000 people in uniform pre-February 24, 2022, to 700,000 people in uniform. That's not counting all the guys who are in reserve. If we look at the number of Ukrainians who have been trained by Western militaries, it needs to be way more. "
Aika realistinen näkemys siitä mikä sodan voittaa:
"No masterful stroke from the [Ukrainian] General Staff or Zaluzhniy is going to win this war. It's literally going to be the grunts in the field carrying the AK (Russian-made automatic weapon) and just banging up against trenches, banging up against fortified positions…. I mean, that is the Ukrainian soldier, and that's who is going to win the war."

A Former U.S. Green Beret Says Ukraine Is His Generation's 'Most Righteous War'
David Bramlette, a former U.S. Green Beret, fought in both Iraq and Afghanistan, but says serving in Ukraine's Foreign Legion against invading Russia forces is "probably the most righteous war that my generation will see."
