When a world class military has to rely on local business to supply and feed their troops.
Don't kill me if I remember this wrong, but one of the advantages the German tanks had was their gas engines [or was it diesel] could fuel up at French gas stations.
The more you nerd.

IIRC they were diesel. The Allies used gasoline. Unfortunately for anyone trapped in a tank when it was hit.

Soldier of Fortune Magazine is still around? Can readers enlist on either side?...
I think lots of western merc-wannabe guys enlisted in the early stages for Ukraine and got used as cannon fodder while the Yooks trained and equipped their own people.

Anyone with any sense would avoid the Russian army. The latest is that the Russians no longer have hemostatic dressings or blood / plasma stocks. So if you take a wound in the Russian army, you now essentially bleed out and die.
