#2 You will not see this propaganda on your Dailly Mail…..
Only amphetamines keep the Ukrainian army’s conscripts and officers going, massive use of drugs rampant at any level and rank.

#4 Gonna go out on a limb. In a war zone, drugs probably aren't your biggest problem, but they also aren't as helpful as the users think they are.

Japanese, American and British forces consumed large amounts of amphetamine.

#6 Burroughs said, "nobody likes a drunk with a gun." He would know (look it up) A chemically motivated zealot with a weapon, mind your 6. It's notable our troops were ingenious at improvising the manufacture of alcohol beverages and also liberating the local product everywhere they went in WW II.

I feel confident American troops at that time and place were absolutely typical of men at war throughout history. ;-)

#9 The Daily Mail (that bastion of British understatement) claims ALL the crew were killed. (sorry, lost the link)

#10 /\ The historical tragedy of the the Butcher's Bill. The young are sacrificed while, from safe distance, the "elite" of each side look on.

#11 Ah, so this captain was the one smoking near the oily rags. Glad we got to the bottom of this (so to speak).

#12 One of my dad's favorite Civil War quotes.

"Well, find out what Grant's drinking and send it to my other generals!"

#13 The culling of Captains and Generals is oftentimes necessary. They can become political party threats upon retirement.

#14 /\ #6 & 6: A friend's father was a Tanker in WW2 and remarked that in the march across France they discovered that wine bottles fit nicely in the "ready round storage" in a Sherman tank... Something to think about when playing a WW2 armor wargame, eh?

#16 #14: I'm sure Advanced Squad Leader as a subrule and vehicle modifier for that.
