Great pics but who is who in the photos? Looks like alot of the Russian soldiers have mixed and match camo on including tennis shoes in some pics. Some are wearing the new Marine Corp digital camo, but I thought that was only being used by the Georgian soldiers.

And those blown up tanks on the city that all the media outlets are showing, where those really Georgian tanks? They all look the same. I can't believe that the georgians that were trained by us got their asses kicked that bad. I think some of the these are Russie losses that are being shown as Georgian losses.

I read a report that the first wave of Ruskie tanks got the shit kicked out of them cause the georgian tanks (upgraded with our help) had night vision and some other items of interest and the ruskies did limited recon of the situation before coming in with guns a blazing.

I also read that the general in charge of the russian force got wounded right off the bat and the ruskies had limited airpower cause the georgians down so many in the beginning.

Hard to tell fact from fiction in a messed up, confessed mess called the baltics.
