“We shan’t see their like again…”

I disagree. I see them all around us. They don’t stand out so much, but neither did those men fighting in the Battle of the Bulge. Take a look at the men at the your local auto shop, the hardware store, etc. Go watch a college football game, then a high school game. They’re there, but there is nothing that indicates such ferocity.

Every generation thinks the next one is lesser. The ones you hear about, the orange haired creampuffs, are a minority.

If we ever have another Battle of the Bulge type battle, we’ve already lost. Major warfare will not be fought sending hundreds of thousands of troops into battle with rifles and tanks. They can all be obliterated in the blink of an eye. Intelligence and hardware will win the war of the future. Some overweight kid of 20 sitting behind a console will drop a battlefield nuke right in the middle of the invading army. Might even have orange hair…

Only fools would start a major war with the West. Nuclear destruction is assured.

Error happened.
