"How often do we have to teach you this lesson, old man?"
Fair enough. You could only know this if you studied an obscure conflict called "World War 2". Very esoteric knowledge.
Throwing an "elite" (read: more well equipped than usual) formation to stop an advance is what the Nazis resorted to doing after the war had decisively turned against them. Didn't work for them then, doesn't seem to work for Ukraine now. Almost as if it's a bad strategy only employed by losers.
