"Like many, I never really lost the inner nine-year-old who rejoices at the sight of armed soldiers marching in lockstep"...maaaate, don't admit that on page 25!
Yes, you had the grace to admit you've never experienced war, but how the f*** do you expect readers to react?
Is this what comes of being published by a military history/games publisher (Osprey)? Insufficiently critical editing?
Is this a common sentiment? It's 100% not mine
I'm reading Putin's Wars: From Chechnya to Ukraine by Mark Galeotti
I realise it was published in 2022 as Russia was invading Ukraine, but that sentence is even more distasteful now, in 2026
