    50 Green Berets - that’s four ODAs, the MAJ, and a SGM. So almost a whole company. That means they’d have trained up elements of the Kiowa, Commanche, Utes, and 3 other tribes, 27 towns worth of settlers, and 600 Vaqueros, and surrounded the Lakota, Arapaho, Dakota and Cheyenne encampments. Then negotiated with Sitting Bull, Crazy Horse, et al, from a position of strength, convincing them to join forces, move north, and carve out a new Indian nation in Alberta.

    You are barking up the wrong tree here and obviously have no idea, clue or semblance of forethought. They would have left the area of engagement, died or would have been decimated to the last man. Please also consider that mutiny amongst the green berets might ensue, due to timeline debarkations, ancestral heritage affiliation and that Custer was an egotistical genocidal racist maniac that ordered women and children be killed.

    The fall of the Alamo helped Gen Huston rally Texans and finialy the unrepentant rightious anger completely destroyed Santa Anna command. Other Mexican Troops still stationed in Behar suffered from dysentery, etc and were no longer an effective fighting force. If the Rangers kept the Alamo from falling, even routing the Mexican Soldiers. Possibly killing Santa Anna. Then Texas would have never been brought into an independent country. Various factions who would have been united, would have fought bitterly over slavery, accepting the Hispanic Texans, etc. Further, the War against Mexico that the USA fought likely never would have happaned. If not, all those storied officers in the civil war would never have had field experience. That would have horrible consequences as the civil war would have lasted much longer.

Seriously, if you're going to pose hypotheticals at least have them as being at least a little credible. For example, in this case you might have asked "What if 50 Vietnam-era Green Berets, armed with 1870s vintage weapons, were at Little Bighorn? That way you could explore something meaningful, like how improved training, conditioning, and doctrine amongst Custer's troops might have affected the outcome, but if you're going to posit that they've got 1960-70s weapons (and unlimited supplies of ammo) why stop at small arms - why not give them howitzers or tanks or nuclear weapons? Your head, your butt - try to disconnect them.

    You haven't been to the battle site nor do you have any knowledge about what really happened. In reallity the battle that took place really happened in two places about 5 miles from each other. And very different outcomes for each. If you get the chance I recommend visiting the site and study battle tactics used at the time, you will come back with very different results.

    If you give the Sioux assault rifles and light machine guns before the battle.... no impact. Dividing them into three parts (every group only 17 men strong) as Custer did with the 7th cavalry and two times those 17 against more than 1000 native warriors (like Reno's attack first and than Custer's).... nope. But I doubt a group of Green Berets would be as dumb as Custer bringing them into the same hopeless situation.... 🤔

    M-16s,xm-177s( Car 15s) , claymores, 60mm motors and m-60 machine guns ? Depends on where the green berets were deployed? If with Custer they would have beaten back the natives that attacked Custers three companies( at least 500-600 natives dead) unless the Platoon was split up - if that's the case about 15 green berets would have DIED with Custer leaving about 400 plus native warriors dead History has shown that Custer company got " bum rushed" in the tall prairie grass- vicious close in fighting

    This was very poorly thought out by this moron. So.... Custer and his command went to the Little Bighorn (I'm a white guy, I've been there) to MURDER a bunch of Native Americans so settlers could STEAL their land. Instead, they turned on Custer and killed him and his entire command. It wasn't a "disastrous outcome" if you were the Natives. This is the height of arrogance and stupidity and a massive insult of the US Army's Green Berets.

    Which stage of the battle would we be talking about, the first phase when the Russians were fighting a rear-guard retreat back over the Volga river as the sixth army were converging on the centre of the city in early August, or the protracted and very brutal building to building conflicts during mid October in to mid December or the start of operation Uranus to completely surround the Stalingrad pocket by the end of November? Can you make any reliable assumptions that the current modern Germany Army would accept or contemplate fighting for a cause many of them would refuse to accept? Secondly most tanks were pretty useless in built up area of intense fighting, thirdly modern tanks are sophisticated and highly complex tools of war that are designed to be used in combined arms scenarios not bogged down in urban fighting, they require expensive and dedicated supply columns and timely maintenance by specialists would they be present? next when they run out of ammunition, fuel and other necessities they would be very quickly become useless, and in many ways a hinderance, it would depend on the local commander and whether or not he places any value on such advanced weapons and whether or not they would be worth keeping or used in a coordinated way? If we we talking about deploying them against the start of operation Uranus with enough supplies for a 7 day continuous fight then I could see some successes but inevitably sheer weight of numbers of soviet tanks deployed (1000 tanks for operation Uranus) would mean again that unless those modern tanks scored hits in clearly devastating fashion and taking into account the seriousness of the weather at that time, would it force the soviets to reconsider? I seriously doubt that they would provide more than a delaying action at best. IF they were used to keep open a corridor for General Manstiens relief army to link up with the remains of the sixth army then I estimate a typical number would be minimum of 250-350 Modern German Leopards with a full complement of logistics services for a 24/7 battle at the very outset might have allowed the arrival of the relief effort, but not to retake Stalingrad. We also have to take into account what anti aircraft measures would be available as the soviets had very large numbers of low level tank busting planes and the assumption would be the Germans still controlled the air. The numbers here for modern tanks is far more than a "German Tank group".

    Sorry but this is a silly comparison, what has not been discussed that at the time of the future Dantons participation in WW1 France was an ally of the UK, would he have fired on the British knowing the possible repercussions to his own timeline including his own family history the history of France? Would he have believed that he could have been projected back in time and realised that he was in the middle of the battle of Trafalgar and realise this sooner rather than later? and lastly, how would the current French/Spanish reaction to a completely alien ship completely unrecognisable be so quickly accepted by the then current Navies in the 19th century, my guess would be that if he couldn't identify himself soon enough and be credible his ship could have been fired on by the combined Spanish/French navies at point blank range, and I doubt against a very close encounter that the modern Dante would not be able to bring to bear most of the heavy guns at such a short distance, and survive especially if boarded? I appreciate that Dante could ram everyone out of the way but then the damage would have been done and the outcome of the battle would actually hasten the British victory leaving the modern Dante at a curious impasse?

    There are too many problems with this whole scenario. First off numbers and tactics. SF in Vietnam with TOE of that time period VS what you "allowed" them to have for this battle. The numbers and tactics of the Nativees involved. When and where the troops are to be deployed. Custer Hill is a high point when looking from the river, but is not significantly higher than some of the surounding terrain on top. Not having M-60, or other TOE of the Vietnam era, is absurd. Vietnam era SF worked in small team and indigenous troops. For the scenario you have presented almost ANY Vietnam era 50 man unit armed with proper TOE could lay down the fire you suggested. Although there were snipers in Vietnam they were just being reintroduced to the military machine because, after every previous war the powers that be decided snipers were nasty and not necessary. I mean it is fun to wonder, but hey my father used to say "The Alamo would not have fallen if they only had an M-60". hahaha.........De Oppresso Liber

King John was already blind by Crecy and he has two of the knights of his bodyguard for his horses bridle to theirs. Prince Edward was so impressed by the Old and Blind kings bravery that he adopted King John's personal badge(in addition to heraldry many nobles adopted another symbol as a personal badge, see the white rose of York, the Red rose of Lancaster and the tudor rose which combines them, or see King Edward IV badge of the Sun in Splendour as examples). King John's personal badge was three white swan feathers on a black field and his personal motto was the German "Ich Dien" (I serve). Every heir to the English throne has used this badge and motto since crecy.

    The Ottomans were the pioneers in the use of gunpowder and firearms in Europe it is not often said. It does not surprise me that the European armies had to adapt to the Ottomans by incorporating army corps. But Europe's first standard army in the Middle Ages came from the Ottoman Empire when Europeans used archaic charging tactics of heavy chivalry. The Ottomans even before the Spanish Empire had an excellent army, better logistics and cannons of different sizes and calibers. I would add that the Ottoman armies were the first armies to use uniforms for each army corps which was ultra modern for the time without mentioning the Mehter which was the first corps of martial music those which helped the army to walk in a disciplined manner and improve morale. The Ottoman army specialized in siege warfare. Of course the Europeans adapted Ottoman tactics and even adopted them. Like for example the Infantry regiments the use of uniformes and ranks and the adoption massively of fire armes, the martial discipline which was the strength of the Ottoman armies. The Europeans took these different concepts and added the spear to their formations which gave the tercios for example, see modern armies. The weak point of the Ottoman armies was their poor command and naval technological inferiority to the Europeans, which led to the disaster of Lepanto and which allowed the Europeans to gain the upper hand.

    Going to disagree here. We now know that Indians were using 1866 Winchester Carbine repeaters along with some longer range versions. In truth, they outgunned Custers group with better weapons. And while the Green Berets would have caused much issues, they had to worry about snipers (that was discovered recently). So while Green Berets were better armed and better trained. They were going up against a ratio of over 500 to 1 (min). Since, the common weapon used there is the 1866 Winchester Carbine (Which had a great range with scope), it would been able to do much damage. In the end, they would have done what they did to Custer, wait it out until Green Berets ran low on ammo, then it was over... The silly idea they used mostly arrows and bows is a myth. Yes, they did use those, but it was the repeaters and long ranged scoped rifles (with a range of 460 to 730 meters) that destroyed Custer's group. And finally, we know that Indians didnt charge Custer, they used sneaking and long-range shootouts. Custer was surrounded and heavily outnumbered going up against better weapons of that time than even Custer had. Some of those firearms are highly collectible today because of their ability and range. Want to understand their impact, play a game like Red Dead Redemption 2 and you shall get a general idea how powerful they were. This battle, with Green Beret, likely would have ended in both sides agreeing to stop fighting at best or Green Beret wiped out. The biggest irony, they would experience the same combat tactics against them in Vietnam.
