      As pointed out earlier that seems like a rather pedantic complaint particularly since we are talking about a meme. That said, I'll play along.

      Is is outside the realm of possibility that there are other armored vehicles in a tank brigade besides just tanks?

        Yeah, also what gribler said.
        So? You really think something other than a tank picture makes any sense for the joke?

        Your suggestion to call it mechanized infantry would have made sense too.

          Yeah great. But with that delivery a burning non tank vehicle makes about as much sense as showing a burning truck (the fact that a tank brigade may be expected to include trucks notwithstanding)

            • I get your point Geronimo I just think it was a weird critique for a meme.

                Hypothetically you could also have shown that burning russian fuel depot.
                Without fuel deliveries those tanks of the tank brigade need to be abandoned very fast

                • Not sure if we need more pics of tank wrecks.

                  But here's a good selection:

                      • (the picture is potato quality, but it seems like two PzIII and a PzIV on the left, and a Challenger and two Matildas on the right)

                        • Then it totally must be Russian tanks ... at least the 2 Matildas ... Russia got those via Lend Lease

                              Just got back from talking with my Russian neighbor (originally from Siberia, has engineering background; now 6 years in US), and he actually brought up Truman and Lend-Lease to rebuild after WW2. He is intensely anti-Putin these days.
