have a read up on macnamara' morons. during vietnam the us army drafted 100,000 sub iq idiots. 28% were casualties. they also managed to get a lot of their fellow soldiers killed. judges in the south would give crooks the choice of prison or join the marines.  both actions were eugenics projects to kill off criminals and welfare queens.  putin did the same thing with wagner. 20,000 career criminals were sacrificed to take a fortress instead of 20,000 career soldiers. prigos "shoigu, where are my shells?!" rant may have had a basis in fact, why waste fire support on men you want to die? i doubt prigo cared about the criminals, but his experienced men leading them were not easily replaced.
