B.S.
—”B.S.”
Perhaps?
But a bit of history indicates otherwise.
Recall:
On July 28, 1942, Joseph Stalin, premier and dictator of the Soviet Union, issues Order No. 227, what came to be known as the “Not one step backward” order, in light of German advances into Russian territory. The order declared, “Panic makers and cowards must be liquidated on the spot. Not one step backward without orders from higher headquarters! Commanders…who abandon a position without an order from higher headquarters are traitors to the Motherland.”
The order also directed that each army must create “blocking detachments” at the rear that would shoot “panic-mongers and cowards”.[2] In the first three months, blocking detachments shot 1,000 penal troops and sent 24,000 to penal battalions
