Article by JAMES LACEY, TIM BARRICK AND NATHAN BARRICK MARCH 2, 2022.

"In the two weeks prior to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Marine Corps University ran a four-day wargame to simulate the first several days of just such an invasion. One of us ran the wargame while the others played the Ukrainian and Russian forces. Despite a few stark differences, the current Russian offensive is playing out in ways eerily similar to that simulation."

Attack from Belarus by Russian forces not foreseen or taken into consideration. Russian advance plodding but methodical. Maximum firepower available to the Russian not yet employed!
