The Russo-Ukrainian War was far different from the American Civil War, and Ukraine was, of course, not anything morally resembling the Confederate States of America.

More of a morally descending from the CSA
It’s Ukraine’s Kursk offensive
It's pretty funny how they go out of their way to avoid making the obvious comparison with the first nazi invasion of Kursk, because all the same points could've been made with it too.
Yeah, but clearly a military themed newspaper that writes about the US military could never mention anything about WWII's Eastern Front
no clearly you mean the mass assault human wave front
Enemy at the Gates was a documentary and the events took place in real time
Gettysburg probably had a better chance for success, tbh.
Either way, it's overcommitting troops in an attempt to deal a massive blow
It never turns out well
The Cope Incursion
Would the Battle of the Bulge be a similar comparison?
I think the battle of Kursk would be the closest comparison, but we all know why a US publication can't talk about that.
