Thanks both, that really was incredibly interesting. If the US with Spaatz got it right (once the Mustang got flying) in 1943-1945, they sure do seem to be making a classic ‘snafu’ of their strategy in this war. It always amazes me how such an extravagantly and magnificently successful country like the US can get things so wrong at times.

I do not say this with say this with any lack of respect. I’m just stupefied!!

Absolutely--US strategy in this war is upside down.

I think they're doing a lot worse than Russia. Russia might be slow and take a lot of hits on the chin before they react, but it looks live they've adapted their strategy to the battlefield faster than the US, that is safe to say.

Thanks Phillips. I find these podcasts really insightful and useful. I gave £100 to Come Back Alive after listening to the last episode, and look forward to doing so again soon.

I hope this also buys me some credits to keep using your comments sections to spread the 0.25% GDP petition to the UK government! Its nearly at 2k signatures now, and needs 10k to get a government response:

Thanks,
