Not I. As I said, we’ll never know for sure.
I guess Russia never had many western TV shows.
Roy Rogers nods
I agree, this sounds like Barbra streisand ...maybe at some point we will find the rest of the story.
Slightly off topic:
I was reading the diary of a WWII US officer who talked about a vet who contacted him years after the war, to follow up on a decoration he had been promised and didn't receive. The officer who promised him the medal had been killed in an accident.
During a behind the lines event at a US field kitchen, someone dropped a grenade (safety had been forgotten and left off) in a crowded kitchen area. About 18 guys died immediately and many others were injured badly...including the guy who asked about the promise of a medal. He lost vision in one eye and I think he lost a leg, along with other injuries.
The officer who got the post war request to research the medal story proceeded to check things out.
The vet HAD been injured at the WWII field kitchen accident. BUT it turns out HE was the GI who made the ‘mistake’ with his grenade...and caused the deaths of so many, including the officer who had promised the medal.
Aren't people something?
I remember 5 guys getting killed in P/R when a short 81mm round landed between them on a training exercise. Plenty of those accidents happen during training and even more during actual war.
If it is not on YouTube it did not happen.
Vladivostok, looong way from home just to die from assgrabbery...
Have you noticed the Russians are stupid, incompetent and cowards running away gets louder the more Ukraine starts to lose on the Battlefield? Pro Russian Youtube articles vanish as videos get recycled from last year touting victories like the sinking of the Moscow warchip? Just wait—winter will not be easy for Ukraine.
Yes, I’ve noticed. Impossible for the unbiased to miss.
