>Both U.S. and Canadian forces mistook each other as the Japanese and, as a result of friendly fire, 28 Americans and 4 Canadians were killed, with wounded on either side.[1] A stray Japanese mine caused the USS Abner Read (DD-526) to lose a large chunk of its stern. The blast killed 71 and wounded 47. 191 troops went missing during the two-day stay on the island and presumably also died from friendly fire, booby traps, or environmental causes. Four other troops had also been killed by landmines or other traps.

>The point of attack from the Albanian side was a land invasion of Kosovo and the cutting off of the communications of the Yugoslav Army between the forces in Prizren and Djakovica. Another goal was the taking of the region of Metohija. After days of heavy fighting, the Yugoslav Army kept the KLA from advancing into Kosovo. KLA insurgents managed to take the Košare outpost following a massive artillery barrage by the Albanian Army and NATO bombardardment of strategic sites held by the Yugoslavs, but were not able to break the Yugoslav Army's second line of defense. It was the first and only battle in the Kosovo War in which the Yugoslav Forces had significant losses.

Ripe from someone defending froggos...

For one there's the Nikolaeyevka breakout, where a starved and surrounded Italian force you busted through the Soviet army with almost no ammunition after marching without food for days.

Or the First Battle of the Don where Italian defenders stopped the advance of a larger and better equipped Soviet offensive.

Oh and that time the Italians didn't surrender the entire country within days of foreign boots touching their soil.

>a gigantic fucking artillery battery

Here are the batteries that saw action during the battle of Menton.

>Ouvrage Cap Martin
3*75mm - 3*81mm
>Ouvrage Sainte-Agnes
4*75mm - 2*135mm - 4*81mm
>Ouvrage Mont-Agel (including the 1st Battery/157 RAP)
4*75mm - 6*155mm - 2*220mm
>Artillery position at Fontbonne, 4th Battery/157 RAP)
2*75mm - 8*155mm

Of these only the Ouvrage Cap-Martin and Fontbonne battery directly participated in the defense of Pont-Saint-Louis.

While I agree Wikipedia exaggerate the numbers (or rather seemingly credit the Pont-Saint-Louis casemate for every Italian losses that happened during the battle of Menton) the Italian advance on the coastal road was stopped by nine men in a casemate and this despite being heavily outnumbered.

They had their shit together in the middle ages and up to Suleiman, but ever since then they've had a losing streak that would make Italy blush.

Shit like commanders withholding information during battles because they think their knowledge will make them more valuable, tank crews that don't know how to aim properly, maintenance personnel who don't know how to maintain machinery, airforces that don't communicate with ground forces, etc. The list goes on and on.

Seriously, google it. Shit's ridiculous.

How can we even keep track of battles in Afghanistan and Iraq? I understand those early battles like Fallujah or Ramadi but its hard to figure out if we won anything when the war consists of hit and runs and random IEDs.

As for the post you're answering to, we also technically lost at Chosin Reservoir and Khe Sanh, it just so happens that the Marines killed so many asians that it seems that they won, that and they perfected memetic warfare before anyone else so as far as public perception is concerned, we won those battles

Eulji Mundeok had cut off the flow of water with a dam in advance, and when the Sui troops reached the river, the water level was shallow. When the unsuspecting Sui troops were halfway across the river, Eulji Mundeok opened the dam, causing the onslaught of water to drown thousands of enemy soldiers. The Goguryeo cavalry then charged the remaining Sui forces, inflicting enormous casualties.

Believe it or not, but lots of countries weren't very happy that France got rid of their King and all that. A revolution overturns alliances too.

Once you overthrow a king, all the other kings get real nervous and try to put your old king back on the throne, or whoever is vaguely related to him.

They don't like the ideas of democratic revolutions (or whatever the French republic was) spreading.

>Italian were bro toward French during WW2.
wtf is this meme ?
In the alps, they would beat the shit out of every savoyard speaking french instead of italian. The french kids there used to mock the italian helmets which were featuring a big black feather on the top by planting crow's feathers into bullshits on the roads whenever they saw italians passing by. the kids would then get beaten for this by the pizza eaters.
please stop believing your brain about France during ww2. In this region of France it took 15 years of european construction to somehow make savoyards people forgive all this shit. Old timers still remember it pretty well too.
