Guerrilla, U.S.A. - The Big Picture

Big Picture camera crews in the rugged countryside of West Virginia cover an actual situation pitting the Special Forces of the U.S. Army, against the "Aggressor." Although it's a training problem, the script is written as it is enacted and the residents of Preston County are invited to join whichever side they choose. "Guerrilla, U.S.A." is exciting, timely, and informative.

An asymmetrical and decentralized insurgency is nearly impossible to defend against.

[@nairda55555]

Not necessarily. You just need massive force advantage. There were many assymetrical and decentralized german guerilla's resisting allied and soviet troops, but they could not halt the take over of Germany. Or for example, the insurgent native americans facing the industrial power of the Union. The Romans massacring the Gauls. The Mongol conquests of the Rus. In such, a hard stance of near total subjugation was undertaken. The cases where resistance was possible tends to be niche, where conquest is not an option, such as in Vietnam where invasion and occupation of North Vietnam was ruled out due to the risk of retaliation by the Soviets. In which case your problem is a political one, not a military one. Ultiamtely, as Clausewitz says, "War is an extension of Politics"

@@brennenboger1208 well who'se fighting you does matter some too. As does who you are. But you're very right. Consider the Spanish and the British Colonials in the new world had great technological advantages against the natives, in armor, horses, gunpowder, even disease resistance. And yet the Spanish were never able to properly colonize north of the rio-grande, beyond their cities and civilization areas, forever being driven and hunted down by indian raids. Something the the British and later Americans were able to handle. Why? Because the Spaniards wouldn't arm their peasants and treated them like peasants, forcing the army to run like chickens hither and thither to deal with a mobile force. The british had no such qualms in allowing muskets to the colonist. Admittedly it bit them in the ass when said colonists revolted, but it ensured it was a war the Europeans would win. All because the British gave them the means to conquer, and allowed them to fight.

This is funny the hillbilly's have Eastern European accents

[@KenshiroPlayDotA]

There's a reason for that ; the guerrilla leader was the SF soldier Jyri Laats, born in Estonia and who passed away in 2018. If you google his name, his friend Jüri Estam wrote that throughout his SF career, he regularly bumped into other Estonians and Finns, as it wasn't a good idea for these men to stay in these countries following the Finnish armistice and the re-occupation of Estonia by the Soviets in 1944.

​@@stevecrews3137 We also trained Osama bin Laden and the al-queda, aka the Mujahedeen, when they were fighting the USSR in Afghanistan. Makes me kinda leery about all the "help" we're sending Ukraine. Arm our "friends" today, fight them as enemies tomorrow.
