"I interviewed former SOVIET Vietnam War veterans "
Fourth request!
You must have learned much in 6 years of interviewing. Praytell why no posts on your immeasureable insights?
And if all the top level Soviet military techs were Ukrainian, the Russian army must now be at a terrible loss. No wonder Putie is trying to get his claws back into the country that kept Russia propped up for so many years.
PS - I never mentioned Gulag - or 90 % of the quotes you attribute to me. There is no tangled web as there are no lies from this end.

1.) You most certainly DID mention the GULags and CLAIMED your parents had suffered in them. If you recall this was a bone of contention in many threads. You were called on it by me, GarySpFc, and Jb6.
2.) I have provided you on several occasions links to a website that describes the work I've done. You actually refered to some information from one of those links to some other posters (of course, the beauty of it was YOU WERE QUOTING MY WORK! bahahahahaha).
3.) The Russian Army is suffering from the loss of the Ukrainian officers they had. These men, like their Russian counterparts, were professional and quite capable. Take a look at the military acadamies during the Soviet Union and it will provide you a clearer picture. Of course, the Ukies are also suffering from Russian expertise in Air Defense - ask the families of the Israelis in a civilian airliner that was shot down by the Ukrainians.
4.) Putie? He's doing what he thinks is right for his country. His people elected him - not Ukrainians and not Americans. For example: When Bush does something Russians don't like should he back down? Bush is looking out for our interests. Putin for his country's. That Putin is making mistakes (in my opinion) recently is another matter.
5.) Tell us again how you were interrogated by the KGB when you never left the country?

I was born in the US and have never left."
Tonight's claim:
"And I was interrogated in the USSR when we left our tour group to visit my relatives outside the city limits. My parents escaped the clutches of the Russians in 1938."
Which is it? FRAUD.
