    My concern is that we can give Ukraine millions of dollars of small arms, artillery, aging tanks etc. but they still need capable personnel to effectively employ it. From what I have seen it seems they were already scraping the bottom of the barrel and pressing older and older men into service via conscription. We know the Russians aren’t concerned about how many bodies they throw at the conflict because they have supplemented their own forces with convicts, political dissidents, and poor conscripts.
