What a terrible dilemma thee people faced; defend your country with your oppressors (Russian Communists) who slaughtered millions of your own people just a few years before, or work with the Nazis, your “liberators” (well, for at least until the Russians were defeated and then, being Slavs, the Ukrainians would be “second class” slaves to the Nazis). Talking about choosing between two evils to survive...no wonder to this day there is issues on both sides. Bummer.

I've known Ukrainians whose families fought with the communists, and others whose families sided with the German national socialists. I predict another few generations will have to pass before Ukrainians will be able to look back dispassionately.

There's naught new in any of that: the Ukraine, some of the richest agricultural land in the world, has been invaded from all directions and fought over for millennia.

Seems FR’s don’t know much about WWII. Germans armed and unformed a million man Russian army. Towards the end of WWII they fought the SS with German arms freeing Prague. The Czechs turned them over to the Russians after thanking them. They were all killed

There are many wars throughout history in which decent,reasonable,intelligent people would want *both* sides to lose.Hitler vs Stalin is one of the best examples of such a war...best in recent history at least.Sadly,only *one* side lost.

Stalin was evil and would kill you.

Hitler was evil and would kill you.

So which side were the good guys on? The average Soviet soldier didn’t really start fighting until Hitler had made it apparent that he intended to kill them all either way. The odds that Stalin would kill them started looking more acceptable.

After the news arrived back (via non-official reliable sources) that most everyone who had surrendered in the summer of 1941 was dead and civilians were being liquidated, the Russians accepted death and began to take a real stand.

No doubt literally NO ONE in all of Russia knows what really happened in WWII..
The Russians have been brain washed since toddlers for a hundred years..

Probably no one remains that WANTS TO KNOW either..
Russians murdered more of their OWN people in WWII and before than they did anybody else..
A corrupt and murderous people the Russians..

Thr Russians and Chinese people have never known FREEDOM.. EVER..
Still today they are ruled by depots.. they know of no other way..
