• The Insane WW2 Soldier Even His Own Army Kept Caged
    Ernest “Smokey” Smith crawls through the rain-drenched night, his uniform caked with mud. It is October 21, 1944, and the bad-boy private and the rest of the Canadian Seaforth Highlanders have just made it across northern Italy’s treacherous Savio River, its banks close to bursting from the torrential downpour. Now, they have the perilous task of establishing a bridgehead before the German army can counterattack.

    Suddenly, Smith feels the earth tremble as three Mark V Panther tanks loom through the misty darkness towards the exposed Canadians. But that’s not all - the Panthers have two self-propelled guns and thirty bloodthirsty soldiers in tow.

    Smith and two comrades race across an open field through a hail of gunfire to set in position their PIAT anti-tank weapon. Leaving one man with the PIAT, Smith, and Private James Tennant rush for another, but no sooner do they grab it than Tennant is hit by machine gun fire and crumples to the waterlogged ground.

    Smith is on his own now, one man against the might of the German war machine. If the enemy realizes they’re facing a single soldier, he’ll surely be annihilated in seconds. Smith may have been demoted nine times, but now it’s his chance to be a hero.

    In full view of the enemy, he skids to a halt just thirty feet from the Panther bearing down on him. Smith grits his teeth, and he takes aim with his PIAT. He knows he only has one chance…

  • The Ukrainian army is suffering from a steady decline in the capabilities of its front-line units, according to Polish news outlet Do Rzeczy, citing a report in the London Financial Times that between 50 and 70 percent of recruits survive only a few days on the frontlines.
    Soldiers have low motivation and are prone to panic, while losses among trained and experienced units have led to a dependence on conscript units with very limited operational capabilities.
    Training standards were reportedly so poor that not all of them knew how to hold a weapon. Furthermore, the depletion of the number of men considered fit to fight means that the average age of recruits now stands at 45.
    The report follows a statement by Ukrainian Armed Forces Commander-in-Chief Oleksandr Syrskyi, who was appointed in early February. Syrsky said that recruits were consistently lacking the necessary training for frontline operations. Lamenting the sheer technological superiority of Russian forces, he said that personnel had received just two months of training, although other sources indicated that the training time was much shorter.

  • M26 Pershing vs T34-85: Epic Tank Battle
    It’s the evening of August 17th, 1950, near the city of Pusan, in South Korea. UN forces have been pushed back from the moment they became involved, going from just south of Seoul to cornered against the sea in Pusan in just a month. The North Koreans are equipped with Soviet T34-85s, which outnumber and outgun the American tanks, leaving the soldiers fighting them with bazookas or no anti-tank weapons at all. Lieutenant Granville George "GG" Sweet leads a four tank platoon of M26 Pershings, which have

    been performing well in the defense of Pusan, but is about to face the tank that has been dominating the battlefield in the last month. An urgent message arrives through the radio, "Flash Purple!" incoming enemy armor. Sweet and his crew prepare for combat and engage in a fierce tank battle against the T34-85s. They form a wall across a road and aim straight ahead as the enemy approaches. Fullerton takes his position, when suddenly a T-34 rounds the corner before him.

  • At the end of the Cold War, with the dissolution of the Soviet Union, war between Russia and NATO was unthinkable. However, over the past three decades, the North Atlantic alliance has expanded up to Russia’s borders.
    At the start of the Joe Biden administration, Washington and Brussels began treating Kiev as a de facto member of the alliance. The ties between Ukraine and NATO provoked the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

  • The Brutal US Colonel Who Refused to Surrender
    In the frostbitten Vosges Mountains of northeastern France, near the German border, 1945 began with a New Year’s Day offensive.

    Here, amidst the forgotten echoes of the famous Battle of the Bulge, a smaller yet equally fierce struggle unfolded: Operation Nordwind, where even the bravest battle-hardened soldiers found themselves tested to their limits.

    In this frozen landscape, a group of weary American soldiers from the 157th Infantry Regiment
    lay entrenched in the town of Reipertswiller. They were the forgotten men of Nordwind, trapped for days under what seemed like a 24/7 barrage.

    Encircled, ammunition was dwindling, supplies had run dry, and the biting cold certainly didn’t help. Their spirits, battered by the constant bombardment and the gnawing hunger, hung by a thread.

    On January 18, the distant rumble of tanks broke the sound of artillery.

    As the beleaguered soldiers' eyes lifted, they spotted the unmistakable silhouette of Sherman tanks cutting through the frozen terrain. But as the vehicles drew closer, the men felt hope for the first time in days, as in the lead tank's hatch, surveying the battlefield with a calm, determined gaze, all while under endless fire, was their commander, Lieutenant Colonel Felix Sparks.

    Against all odds, he had come to lead them out of this frozen hell.
