I'll be 100% honest up front.
I'm going to be pissed if we do Cross Swords with Russia finally , All my time in the Military and I can tell you that we did some day dreaming about a straight up fight with Russia.
Most of our training was based on fighting unconventional forces , but actually getting in a Fight with Conventional Russian forces ! Damn it son !!
I guarantee you that Ranger Battalion is F*cking pumped and ready to go ! I'm sure the Marine Infantry is lighting a Fire as well !
This is one of the most ignorant posts I’ve read in a long time.
War is the absolute last resort. In this case it’s so not necessary.

I thought most here wanted war. Civil war. Well, you're probably going to get one. Keep supporting Putin and you might even get the draft back.
Let's have another Vietnam. And half of the Americans, the Conservatives will be rooting for the murderer Putin
Is Tucker Carlson displaying his Russian flag yet?

Exactly. This is really nothing new. Russia moves troops around fairly regularly, especially in regards to Ukraine. Ukraine has the longest border with Russia for any European country, so just by that alone means you get more movements. Second to that, it's a non-NATO state so it makes things more difficult for those prying eyes. Thirdly, this time of year the weather is just better there (compared to say Siberia or the Finland border) for trainings and drills.
