Yeah.....and we lost over 625K during the civil war with only a population of 31 million.....
Statistics......so what is your point...Russians are worse in combat, or better at it....
Or is it that a lot of Russians died for their country when the objective of war is to make the guy on the other side die for his.

they didn't care how many died.
