Day 1021
Snow is better than no snow.
The misleading article appearing in NV the other day about faulty mortar shells produced domestically now looks even more misleading. Defective batches from the $600 million ammo order continue to be sent to front line units. No one is taking responsibility for this gigantic, life-threatening fuck-up, much less fixing it.
Defense Minister Rustem Umerov, Z adviser Oleksandr Kamyshin and Strategic Industry Minister Herman Smetanin are the prime suspects. Sabotage? Stupidity? Greed? All three? None of these jokers have any time in service, but they like dressing up in tac gear, emulating Z, who also has zero military service. Maybe sending them TDY to a mortar unit defending Pokrovsk from “meat attacks” in eastern Ukraine will incentivize them to fix the problem.
