    New Ukrainian strat just dropped: attack everything with a vague phonetic similarity to Will Griggs:

    • Kerch Bridge
    • Kursk (is)
    • (Saint Peters)Burg (is)
    • Il’pryskoye? Sure, why not open a front in Kamchatka

    In the footsteps of Napoleon, the shadow figures stagger through the winter
    Falling back before the gates of Moscow, standing in the wings like an avenger
    And far away behind their lines, the partisans are stirring in the forest
    Coming unexpectedly upon their outposts, growing like a promise
    You’ll never know, you’ll never know, which way to turn, which way to look, you’ll never see us
    As we steal into the blackness of the night you’ll never know, you’ll never hear us

    And the evening sings in a voice of amber
    The dawn is surely coming
    The morning road leads to Stalingrad, and the sky is Softly humming

    -Al Stewart
