I am looking at a picture in the New York Post showing a long railroad train of flatcars, loaded with Russian army trucks bound for Belarus to beef up the Russian forces on the Ukraine border. Hmm, shipping trucks by rail? Does this say something bad about the condition of roads between Moscow and Belarus? Or something bad about the reliability of Russian army trucks operating off road? Or on road? The US army was practicing up for WWII in the 1930’s with large road movements by tanks and trucks. You need the trucks to allow the infantry to keep up with the tanks, and to bring up rations, ammunition, and fuel.
