US Tankers don't even place in an international tank competition. Does this say anything about the training level or our tankers? Or is it an expected outcome of being involved in very "Infantry Heavy" operations for the last two decades?

Would be interesting to see the score cards to see where we were lacking. Additionally, how was the Army platoon selected for participation? I would take this as a raspberry at all for the USA.

MAJ Bryan Zeski it's an indication of what 12 yrs of door kicking rather than rankin will do to core skills.

It about keeping Tanker doing Tanker business and that is Destroying heavy Equipment... When I was in back in 80's and 90's we dominated the competition in Germany... We took pride and Trained in Gunnery and FTX... Loved those days back Then...
