Default "The Russian Battlefield" site redone!

And you can translate everything into English! Of course computer translations of native Russian leave something to be desired, and some of it comes out as absolute nonsense-but for the most part you can follow along. This is going to be a lot of fun....

Cheers Jeff, not been there for a while - undoubtably one of the best WW2 sites on the Internet looks like it's getting better.

A;
I was up late last night reading some of the computer translations and methinks we have a gold mine here! If there's one thing it all underscores though it is the fact that you should not use idioms if you want to make yourself understood to people not of your native tongue. Heck I make an effort to avoid my Minnesota idioms when I travel outside of my home state (Yes there are regional differences in the USA).
