The worst strategy ever is not being able to go anywhere anytime soon because there is no pass or corridor to navigate!
Sure, a valley pretty much dictates a path of advance, but predicts the enemy's avenue of attack either, which pretty much simplfies mine-clearing operations and whatnot.
And modern MBTs have a chem warfare overpressure system where the internal atmospheric pressure of a tank is slightly higher than that of the outside air. Abrams' are not airtight, but they need not be, because with the overpressure on, the clean air is constantly leaking out, which prevents contaminants from leaking in.

Political Correctness is the idea that you can foster tolerance in a diverse world through the intolerance of anything that strays from a clinical standard.
