In military terms, you can have an orderly retreat... or a rout.
Examples: Chosin Reservoir and Stalingrad, respectively. *The former
is bad, but the latter is far, far worse.
Dumbass -
Nice analogies.
Did you ever read "Stalingrad: the Fateful Siege" by Beevor? Pretty
goddamm epically awful conflict.
No, but I saw the movie... and the History Channel programs.
Horrific. The -uh- "German leader" reminded me a lot of Bush-
needlessly sacrificing the lives of thousands of his troops rather
than admit his blunder.
