If we had "hours of footage" it would have aired on every single ww2 "documentary" i ever watched on History channel as a 12 year old. If we had "hours of footage", you would link me even a minute of it. I bet you a thousand bucks than if you show me anything, you show me a regular-ass w22 infantry attacks with like, a line of guys moving forward under artillery cover.
We have several hours of footage from the CURRENT war... of Russians being sent over fields, hit by drones and artillery. Once they're all dead. Send in the next guys, their turn.
I thought that would be obvious since they didn't have drones in WW2.
That's called "an attack", and literally every faction does it. Curiously, only when Russians do it does it become a Sinister Russian Meatwave, despite the fact that there is never an actual wave because drone warfare makes mass movement suicidal and the current tactical meta is team and squad movements. Yeah, what a HUGE MEATWAVE. You're not just mindlessly repeating tropes at all.
