And that's not saying the T-34 was a bad tank either. the Soviet Union had a completely different design doctrine and intention, making the T-34 with similar ideas in mind to the Garbage Rod - make so many of them that when one breaks down, the crew hops into a new one and keeps going.

And, previous point includes that the T-34 did have to contend with the Third Reich's best when it came to armor, so naturally they were upgunned and up armored to be able to push through the Tigers, Panthers, Tiger 2's, and Panzer 4's that were massed up on the Eastern front.

So on one hand you have a tank that was designed with the intent of being replaced as fast as it was destroyed, if not faster, while also being able to slug its way through as many obstacles as possible, and then you have a tank that needed to be mass produced for operation across *both* Major oceans, that saw fighting in every theatre of WW2... Two completely different tanks that really would only face off eachother when both were already obsolete, the Korean War.

I guess I'll just leave this here...

2020-09-25 04:57:39 UTC  

i once got a giant refrigerator box and turned it into a fort

2020-09-25 07:55:40 UTC  

I’d rather have COVID 19....than Biden 2020

2020-09-25 07:56:13 UTC  

Yeah. When I was a kid with my brother we would get huge furniture boxes and the refrigerator boxes and put them in the front room get a knife and cut out little port holes with little flaps and defend the fort at all odds we made some great cardboard forts

LMG MOUNTED

2020-09-25 10:10:14 UTC

2020-09-25 13:54:02 UTC  

*EDD mounted, let them come*

2020-09-25 13:54:39 UTC  

*details*

2020-09-25 15:01:08 UTC  

*like when a touch if color is out of place, when a shadow does not match with its surroundings, or when a shape is not where it is supposed to be. The only difference is the stakes.
**Mine are higher***

2020-09-25 15:01:50 UTC  

**BANG**

2020-09-25 17:50:07 UTC  

As a sniper we definitely looked for those out of place colors and shadows but you’re always looking for that telltale glint a slight reflection off some optics or a shiny metal surface

2020-09-25 17:50:40 UTC  

That’s the go to signal and always gets a send it from your spotter

2020-09-25 18:15:07 UTC  

Don't the scopes for rifles have a covering that prevents the glint but still allows you to see?

2020-09-25 20:53:33 UTC  

Some do, tho i think its a fairly new thing that really hasent been adopted by the full forces

2020-09-26 04:42:16 UTC  

How many have seen the clip of biden calling our troops stupid bastards?

2020-09-26 04:44:06 UTC  

5 today

2020-09-26 04:44:49 UTC  

I've seen it twice I think. That'll be another "that didn't age well."

2020-09-26 06:19:22 UTC  

Yep

2020-09-26 18:14:46 UTC  

“Clap you stupid bastards”

2020-09-26 18:14:51 UTC  

Yikes.

2020-09-26 19:33:54 UTC  

Lol

2020-09-26 19:34:29 UTC  

Indeed

2020-09-26 19:34:31 UTC  

Everytime Biden opens his mouth even to military he looses voters.

2020-09-26 19:34:52 UTC  

Yeah

2020-09-26 19:35:44 UTC  

I wonder if there were people there with signs to let the audience know when to clap.

2020-09-26 19:36:10 UTC  

Beeman that’s a good possibility

2020-09-26 19:39:23 UTC
