I figured the point would sail over your head. See the correct answer was "none of your business ". In both cases.
Oh no I got the point. The correct answer was “I’m fully boosted but saying so would admit I do indeed believe everything the propagandists put in the shiny box”. Stay safe and healthy!

And the correct answer for my question likely isn't palatable or something you care to think on. See two can play these games

So, in the entirety of WW 2 we lost two generals to hostile fire and two more to friendly fire. But the Russians, with a fraction of the men involved and in a fraction of the time involved have lost four? Yeah, bullschit.
And that is just a bullschit story. He died with a squad trying to storm Maripul? Generals don’t do that schit. Russian doctrine is to have Captains and majors lead squads. In the US - that's an E5/E6. Seriously. Russian generals do "operate" (not a SEAL Team 6 way) well below what American generals do. That's very interesting.
I am MAGA.

I can't believe that when I saw the thread title I thought this might be an interesting thread. I did, however, appreciate the link on the General officers lost by the U.S. in WWII so there is that.

This has been confirmed. Not sure about the other 7.

Take the url to archive.today and read it there. It cuts out the blocks and ads. Not always fast, but seems to be sure. RB

US/NATO SIGINT assets are Geo locating Russian brass using unsecure comms and giving the Ukraine the intel.
At least that's my guess.

One American General killed during World Spat number 2 was Gen. Maurice Rose, killed on March 30th, I believe near Paderborn, Germany.
He was known to get too close to the fighting, and even the Germans had a nickname for him, The "American Rommel".

Rem141r: I am with you on that!
And I hope the body count of 4 (four!) on rooskie generals is correct - if it is, then it's a good start.
Long live Ukraine.

The pro-Putin crowd accepts as truth all the negative news on Ukraine, but then says it's a lie about Russian generals being killed.

do you have a home garden? Helena is known for lead in the soil. (courtesy ASARCO) At higher blood lead levels a person may develop general symptoms of illness like abdominal pain, headache, fatigue, irritability, and joint or muscle aches. At very high blood lead levels, a person can develop nerve damage that causes numbness in the hands and feet and a condition called “foot drop” where it is hard to raise the toes when the foot is lifted off the ground.

Several other news agencies are also reporting this about the 4th General being killed.

Not at all. But I also can't mount an argument against it unless someone else who has eyes on the situation mounts a credible argument This is almost the stupidest thing I've seen you post..

The average American E4 is given the equivalent authority and responsibility of a Russian/Slav O5 or O6. Depending on role.
