Moving , very moving.
Those Russian lads lying dead face down in the soil, they were the lucky ones.
Death was quick for them, I hope.
Not the long slow suffering painful death of those in captivity.
Just seeing those prisoners and thinking how many of them would starve to death, be beaten and shot and then if ever libertated have to face the NKVD made for rather sad viewing.
Seeing those houses burn, wonder how many women and children were in those burning wrecks? I can imagine , knowing what the Germans did , there would be a few.
Although I can't support the muderous regeme of Stalin and his croneies, the Soviet people didn't deserve the evil that was unleashed on them in 1941.
Seeing the smiling, smug Germans not knowing what was about to happen over the next four years. I wonder how many of those survived?
