July 12th, 2020, was definitely the most humiliating day since NATO was founded.
With the fall of the Bucaramanga military base, the Colombian government force and the NATO Coalition Force stationed in this area had to strategically retreat. However, with their communication completely collapsed, it was nearly impossible to obtain first-hand information anywhere on the battlefield.
After a force saw a friendly army withdraw from the frontline, they had the following dialogue.
"Hey, which country are you from? Where are you going? Why can't we find the signal for the command post?"
"Italian XX Brigade. We are heading to the Port of Barranquilla. Don't ask, we don't know why..."
"Then shall we continue to station here or retreat?"
"You ask me, who do I ask?"
