The vehicle was completely blown away by multiple bullets and they kept calling to the Russian insurgents that they were the press, but after a few seconds of stopping they would start firing again. They decided to make a run for it and managed to get to a local big garage where they waited it out with the staff there before they were rescued.

Zelensky is just a puppet of USA, his mission from his master is to irritate Russia to raise this war, and to drag the war till no end until Russia is exhausted and collapsed, lives of Ukraine is nothing to him, nothing to USA, the burst out laughing of vice president of USA has shown to the world that how happy USA government is seeing this war is finally in front of them, now USA needs not to fight the war by themselves, what it needs to do is only to provide weapons and calls its allies to provide weapons to Ukraine, their puppets in Ukraine will fulfill its mission for it.。 My deep sympathy to Ukraine people, but unfortunately, until now, Ukraine people still do not know who is their real enemy, Ukrainians themselves chose this war ignorantly because the government they support is under the control of the American master. The American government is launching all kinds of evil deeds such as provocations, fabricating fake news, fake video, assassination, confrontations and wars against the world all the time, all the time thinking about how to turn its imaginary enemy ruthless, kill and let it disappear from the world, especially for Russia, China, Iran, North Korea, Venezuela, etc. Ukrainians leave their own destiny under the control of the US government, do not want to control their own destiny in their own hands, and do things that endanger the security of other countries for a long time, that's fine, since you don't want to control your own destiny, now the Russians have come to help you control your destiny. Although it is cruel to say this, I have to say that this war was completely brought by you Ukrainians, you deserved it, this is the outcome of the provocation, how this war will end, is also in your own hands, but obviously the Ukrainian government is still dreaming of being able to defeat Russia with its super stupid ideas, vulnerable strength and support from other countries, Completely ignoring your own strength, position, right and wrong, reasonable and unreasonable, humanized and dehumanized, the security of the country and the people, etc., is a wrong path to the end, the poor Ukrainian government and people, You really brought this war on your own, and you deserve death and destruction, Putin is doing something good to the world and human being for destroying the root of US bioweapon labs and all acts against human’s interests and lives, full support to Putin. In the far east, there is a small island that belongs to China but is currently self-governing, the administrators of Taiwan province of China, who, like you Ukrainians, are under the control of the American masters, ignorantly doing everything they can to provoke the Chinese Communist government. It is stupid to think that the United States---the common enemy of mankind, can give you all the protection, without considering your own abilities and all the favors, kindness and tolerance that China Communist Party has given to you, who are of the same origin and the same language, but the ignorance on Taiwan Island The person is so lucky, because the Chinese Communist Party will not eliminate all kinds of provocations from the ignorant island in a Russian-like war, but I absolutely hope that the Chinese government will bring the ignorant island people into its own management as soon as possible, and reduce the number of conflict, harassment from the USA--United States of ARM.

When I was in the field artillery, I was in the FDC. Our biggest threat was special forces. The best way to stop artillery, is to take out the brains of it, hit the fire direction center and there won't be any fire missions being sent out.

[@marthamryglod291]

Where would FDC be located in a Russian unit?

[@MrSgoudreau76]

@Martha Mryglod HI Martha, typically speaking, it wouldn't be all that far off from the gun line. You would want to look for comm equipment. Things like attenae and such. We used to have a set up called an OE254, and rode in a modified APC, ot was a dead giveaway. Basically, you look for the one vehicle that doesn't look like a cannon or artillery piece, and that is more than likely a good start. Also, alot of times the fire direction center is also the POC, or platoon operation center, so if you're lucky, you can get a two for one special, and a lot of the command structure tends to hang around that location.

When they advance through civilian areas firing at every house they cross it's a Russian tactic called "firing recon" (or something similar).

@@SquirrelKnight50 They shouldn't be there. So what if they didn't want to, so what if the are shot if they refuse orders, you have to dehumanize the enemy to function. Back in WW2 times most soldiers didn't shoot to kill, they just fire their guns it was so massive problem that they had to change the way soldiers are trained. Shooting at human shape targets had to become automatic reflex to get the job done.

[@n00blamer]

Dave Grossman wrote a book on this called "On Killing." His numbers were 15 to 20 percent firing rate in WW2, 55 percent in Korea, and 90 to 95 percent in Vietnam (all numbers for US forces). Grossman also has some numbers about the Civil War but nothing significant. His overall thesis is that US soldiers have become more likely to shoot over the years based on more realtisic training aids/scenarios which effectively dehumanize an enemy (and a way off in my opinion belief that video games and violent media are doing the same thing to children).
