My great-grand father was a tank man. In the summer of 1944, he was with the 5th tank guards. He recounts of seeing small children emerge from the underground shelters of the ruined city and asking their parents who were these strange men, many having no memory of anything other than Nazi occupation.
In the few weeks, while the army rested in preparation for another push, he made several sad observations. These small children were used to tanks and other heavy equipment, but were so touchingly shocked when the soldiers offered them things we usually take for granted like sweets and candy. Sad.
The Slovak football team very probably consists of the members of “Zaistovacia divizia”, something like “Rear Division”. The task of the unit was to guard bridges, railways etc. Its members were showing very low readiness to die for the Fuehrer, the unit was evaluated as unreliable and in the end moved to Italy.

After looking into the pictures of the evasion by the Germany into Russia; comprehend even more, human beings not much value have. Also remember what already read about it; what kind of weapons of Mass destruction having, seem like the only way to end all the wars, would be the end of men, or civilization. Many countries have such weapons: inclusive a little one, already have passed ten of nuclear arms of mass destruction, Israel, and may I ask why? The worse thing could happened to any living being,; suffering, and more suffering with some times smiles on the face. I have seeing on the pictures; Germans not even officials and just a simple soldier looking at man suffering with pain. If we have so many humans of such temperament, better do not exist any. The Second World War: was there lots of suffering, even the normal germen did suffer with the cold, and that wasn’t premeditate ahead of time, just the idea of be mean, was enough to go to war. I am sorry for all of Russians for what did happened; now try to defend yourselves better than before, and China could be the most dangers. A.Oscar
