Anything more strike me as "Fen save the poor oppressed peoples yay!" which feels insulting to the real people doing this stuff while we're bullshitting on the internet, y'know?How about teaching them useful little things like small squad tactics and how to properly use anti-tank rockets? One of their problems, from what I saw on the TV, is that they'll fire off rockets at the sound of gun or tank fire without even having a visual fix to go by.
Besides, if you give them the data, most of them probably wouldn't know what to do with it. It's either teach them or have someone on the ground to say "SHOOT THAT WAY!"
Wait... What year was SOS-Con again? 2012? Yeah, Roughriders don't exist yet.
