Formal UGG-NCR meetings for this season follows our traditional approach of being convened on the fourth Tuesday of each month, with the exception of December where there we will not be any meeting. Meetings will also be suspended for the summer months of June, July and August. Start time is 7:30 PM (Eastern) unless otherwise noted.
Since the start of January 2020, the UGG-NCR’s formal monthly meetings have been delivered as on-line “Webinars” rather than in-person presentations / discussions.

“CRUMBLE AND SLICE: Ukraine’s recipe for clearing Russian forces from its territory and winning the war” by Borys Gengalo
The German Ministry of Defence recently leaked a report criticizing Ukrainian strategy and tactics. Should Ukraine listen to a country that in the last century started two world wars…and managed to lose both? In this webinar, Borys Gengalo examined what Ukraine is doing, its success to date and prospects for the near future.
Some issues discussed included:
- A quick review to date of military developments;
- Why Crimea is the key to success in the war;
- How a country with virtually no navy is managing to sink Russian major ships and managed to drive that navy from Crimea to Russian ports on the eastern Black Sea;
- Crossing minefields: tools and tactics;
- Artillery: more and more, less and less;
- Why Ukraine is adopting its current tactics (and what they are);
- The war in the air: drones, airplanes and their effect on the war; and
- A lot of other stuff that will help us understand which way the war is going.
A video recording of Borys’ Webinar presentation can be found here. We also have recordings of the Introductory and Q&A segments from that evening.
