  1. The Russian tank drove in an open field alone without mechanized infantry to support against dismounted Ukrainian Javelin hunter-killer teams. “They came on in the same old way, and we sent them back in the same old way.“ — Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington.

  2.  @patwiggins6969  Recon by force is to attack with a small force at a possible enemy position to have the enemy reveal their troop strength, defensive position, and firing positions by having them return fire. The Russians used it a lot in WW2 sending their soldiers as “Cannon Fodder” against the German front lines to reveal the German artillery positions. The Russians traded their one tank for knowing that there are dismounted Ukrainians with Javelins in the area.
