A great dive into the harrowing tale of how the US army employed meatwave tactics from World War II through Vietnam. The army implemented Individual Replacement System with a callous disregard for the lives of their own soldiers, resulting in the average life expectancy of a US rifleman in WW2 being just 7-10 days. The system also created a lack of unit cohesion, as soldiers were constantly being rotated in and out of units.

So that's where the tales of the Red Army's meat assaults come from. As always, what the Anglo-Saxons do is blamed on Russia. This also includes the myth of millions of raped Germans by the Red Army. A long time ago I read in some Spanish publication (unfortunately I lost the link) about mass rapes of European women by American soldiers during WWII.
