Russian with PPSh (I think) (May, 1942, Berlin) ... carried very differently from a rifle:

More Russkis with PPSh at low ready

zactly. If he was expecting sniper fire from the upper stories, he would be carrying that firearm at port arms. Carrying at the ready, with sling over his neck frees his hands for grabbing stuff that is in the way, and still has the fire arm ready to fire at the blink of an eye.

I guess I'm just a real nitpicker today.

There were no Russians in Berlin in 1942...maybe a leftover who had a tearoom or something,but they didn't enter the city until the spring 0f '45
