Pioneer,

Thus far, you have raised the eyebrows of four officers from 3 different countries. You've came to this forum challenging our points and when we responded with proof and links, you've responded with half **** opinions with no supporting data and certainly no links.

We've directly challenged your assertions and you have been found wanting. We have provided proof that your positions are ill founded and you come back with these idiotic horse droppings about fragging American officers that I found that for a man of your experience that you automatically did not dismissed since it is more than a damned breach of discipline.

You keep bringing up your own experience and your own opinion which frankly is extremely lacking. The M113 is better than the LAV-IIIs? On what planet? A rusted out thin-skinned track is better than newly designed armoured wheeled?

Although you've not stated, the mere fact that you're still a pioneer after 19 years raises my eyebrows to no end. You should be a CSM or even a RSM by now. At best, you're a troop warrant without experience in Europe and you're trying to tell us about the Soviets?

And did you actually study those things you've stated? Like the Bradley or the 1973 Arab-Israeli War? I found it hard to believe that you actually think 1 single squadron (Sharon's) that made the breach in that war can be measured against both Von Manstein and Zhukov's efforts at Kursk.

We have not made it personal here. You have. You made these points using your own experience as reference. We have therefore, challenged both your points and by extension, your experience.
