WWII


Here's a neat sight:


British, American, French (and others) joining the Russians on May Day to celebrate their common victory in WWII.

The Soviet Union suffered the most losses of any country with more than 7.5 million soldiers killed, 5 million wounded and millions of civilian deaths.

Most Russians (me too!) believe they could/would have "won" the war without allied help.
After all, they were winning the war on the Eastern Front
... and over 70% of German troops were engaged on that front on D-Day

I'm waiting for Hollywood to recognize that.
