The stupid, it burns!!!!

Reading the forums for NationStates, and there's a thread on " Most Increadibly(sic) Stupid Military Events Awards"

The mistakes on just the first page have me head-desking.

After Atilla the Hun completely destroyed the Roman Army, he let himself be talked into just packing up and going back to Mongolia by the Pope. He could have owned the entire world.

Napoleon's army neglecting to take coats to Siberia seems like a bit of an oversight.

Bad history, bad geography.. ARGH!

I'd love to see what they think of Pickett's Charge.
