It's hard going. Ukraine is not planning for a three day operation. For non-junkies wondering why ukraine would elect to attack the most heavily defended front, it's super simple. Success on that axis represents complete strategic victory. They can chip away here, and cut a bit there - but a push to the azov effectively ends russian occupation - or, if we prefer...leaves no practical justification for or ability to occupy ukraine anywhere else.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
