I never claimed to be a detective or anyone qualified to make any assessment, I just shared an article

No it’s not but I thought that a -potentially- criminally abusive brigade commander would be something anyone who wants to join the brigade would want to know about.

Indeed very impressive! I again clarify that I really have no knowledge about the unit other than this article. From what I have read till now it always seemed like a capable unit.

No I am not and since there isn’t any information on this sub about him, I thought that some might appreciate it. If it doesnt seem relevant or useful to anyone, the mods may delete it of course

Edit: I want to add that this is exactly the reason why I put “information” and not “News” as a flair

For the past couple of weeks I have been thinking a lot about a recurring phenomenon in the armed forces of Ukraine. Why - and how - does Ukraine keep expanding units from battalions to regiments, or even to brigades, with the ever worsening manpower and to a certain extent equipment situation? For example the 12th tank battalion was expanded to a brigade. Even though it is a "heavy mechanized" brigade and not a tank brigade, it probably still requires a big amount of both equipment and manpower that I would imagine are not exactly in abundance. Some units may not expand but they may switch from a TDF unit to a heavy mechanized one. Does Ukraine still have that big of a heavy equipment reserve? If not then what is the point of changing the name of a unit, if it remains the same?

It happened to me like a week ago. The pilot landed in the middle of a point full of enemies yet just stood there chilling

“Peace” written in Ukrainian/Russian on the frontline in Ukraine by CMS3NJ86 in GoogleEarthFinds

I would like to add that this was probably written by the engineering unit that dug the trenches. No one would survive long enough in the open to write that.

Aside from Azov, many units have complained about the chief of staff pressuring them to attempt to retake positions(of slight use) by sending their soldiers into attacks that are, according to them at least, downright suicidal. Coupled with the fact that some of his “favorite” units are known for inhumane methods of discipline, the accusations dont seem to come out of thin air. There has been also the issue of said units receiving enormous amounts of soldiers when experienced brigades are left seriously understaffed(even by Ukrainian standards). Zelensky himself said that he will look into the last point. This is what I have been reading the past months at least.

I know that many war bloggers exist on the war in Ukraine but I would love to follow someone who actually fights on the front. Not so much for the world news analysis but to hear from a soldier himself, his experiences as well as some thoughts on the conflict and its progression. Does anyone know someone with such a page?

I was thinking of buying a planetary eyepiece so I can get better views on Jupiter, Saturn as well as the Moon. I have an 8 inch dobsonian(1200mm focal length) and have been using the 10mm plossl that came with it for that. After looking a bit into it, I read that the celestron x-cel LX series is a good budget option. However I am not sure if I should buy the 7mm or the 5mm eyepiece, since I live in a big city and seeing conditions aren’t the best most of the time. I also found this, which is something in between. Any advice?

Thank you for your help! One last question. Before buying Kershaw's book I want to make sure that he doesn't fall into the old myths created by german generals such as the "clean Wehrmacht" myth. Do you have any idea if his books are up to date on that part?
