the correct version is this:
Those soviet troops who were in British zones in Germany were sent back, whether they wanted to go or not.
those Soviet troops who were in the American zone were NOT sent back and stayed in GErmany, then emigrated to the States, Canada.
those that went back to Stalin were killed or sent to Siberia.
Yep. Any exposure to the West would get you a minimum of a five or tenner.
Poor bastards.
