OMG german soldiers are total hotties cmpared to undisciplined soviet soldiers
Endless thanks to the Russians and Soviets for knocking the shit out of these fascist bastards!
Yep… well said!!
Since when is there a difference between Russians and Soviets as far as WWII is concerned? Why not say: thanks to the Jews, Ukrainians, Georgians, Russians, Belarussians, Chechens, Armenians, Ossetians, Dagestani, Ingush, Tatars, Tajiks, Uzbeks, Azeri, Kazachs, Turkmens, Kalmyks, Bashkirs, Wolga-Germans, Maris, Karelians, Mongols, Koreans, Buryats, Chuvash and all the other nationalities of the USSR?
Very well put…
as if soviet soldiers were any better than nazis. Different occupation force, same treatment.
Go to hell jerk
And why would I join you over there in Hellstinki?
but that would take long too type..
WHERE is this? What’s the cities, places? Anybody knows?
I think it’s Kharkov on №5

This is Kharkov Ukraine. All of these photos are Kharkov. Faking Nazis.
Hilter-loving bastards!
In the black-and white photoseries (begins with 5th photo) the plane is Focke Wulf Fw189. It was the main recce plane from the germans.

A absolutely adore the design of that airplane.
Thanks a lot for the pictures
The machine belonged to Aufklarungsgruppe 10. The year is very probably 1942 when the Soviets tried, unsuccessfully, to take over the initiative after the Battle of Moscow and were beaten back to defensive.
Agfa Isopan F was manufactured long into 50s. Leica II - III on the photos is a legend, too. Its clones were manufactured in USSR using the machinery confiscated in Germany under various names (Zorki, FED) well until mid-80s with only minor changes.
THX for that info !!!!!!
It’s Kharkov and Gosprom building in it. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gosprom and follow interwiki links for more info.
Awesome photos
WOW super pictures …so crisp and clean like they were shot yesterday, Awesome Post THANK YOU
Sad seeing all those people knowing so many wouldn’t make it home.
Good photos, thanks for posting
I raise a glass of Russian Standard to honor those who defeated the Nazi pigs. Memory Eternal to the United Nations forces.
What had the UN “Blue Helmets” got to do with this?
I think picture number 15 wasn’t taken in Russia, nor in Soviet Union. It don’t look like russian building. Where it is?
Don’t forget the “bastards” that allowed the Nazis to rise (they are the ones with MONEY). The Nazi soldiers were just the pawns.
Even today they continue to live the good life.
you mean like russians who helped to recreate german army after WW I, in spite of France an England?
It’s so strange how we pulled Germany out of shame and shit after WWI, from socioeconomic chaos Britain and France had put it in after WWI with sanctions. And yet Hitler still liked Britain and France even though he invaded them, he admired the Brits and actually was hoping for an alliance.
UK and France should have paid for what they did to Germany, not Russia.
It is known, that after 1933 Germans built their tanks and planes in Soviet Russia, on Soviet territory, with Soviet help.
Why UK and France had to paid for Soviet Union, which broke restrictions of Treaty of Versailles?
I think if Soviet Russia broke the rule, Soviet Russia should have paid for this!
Get outta here, stupid punk
I am half German - look how much nicer it was in the plane than on the ground.
Germany rules !
Lets all thank Americans for getting involved in the early stages of WWII……in 1944.
Poles thank Russians every 17th of September for joining WWII in 1939. There is 70th anniversary this year.
Actually, the US were fighting in Northern Africa since 1942 and in Italy since 1943, they were bombing Germany since 1942, and by the way, fighting a little bit against Japan as well. But don’t let facts stop you from listening to propaganda.
Are you really an idiot or just trolling? In case it’s the former I’ll educate you. USA has been involved in WW2 since the passing of land-lease act in March of 1941. They have began supplying England shortly thereafter and were also providing Navy escorts to convoys bound for Europe. I will not mention the involvement in Pacific in 1942-43; Northern Africa 1943; Italy, Southern France. All well ahead of Normandy invasion.
So, yeah, you’re right. They became involved in 1944.
Not to forget the immense amount of munitions that the US produced and sent to their allies throughout the entire war. Every member of the Allies played their part.
On another note, people generally seem to unfairly equal every German soldier to have been a “Nazi soldier”. True, they fought for the completely wrong cause and there were of course a great number of soldiers in formations such as the Waffen-SS, but just like in any war a lot of the people sent to fight were pressed into service and had very little say in it. The fault chiefly lies with the maniac leaders that rose to power due to the circumstances of that time.
All due respects go to anyone who was caught up in that war and did not succumb to over-nationalistic and prejudiced ideals. The best thing we can do in our times is to bury the past (though never forget it) and move on with renewed friendships and alliances.
may i correct some of you :
its “Germans” and not “Nazis”: everytime one refers to a german as a nazi, one excuses the german from the accountability for all the atrocities committed in their effort to exterminate Russians, maybe even victimizing the german, essentially saying “oh! fuck, German?, do not worry about a thing: you are innocent!, it was all that ‘nazi flu’ in the air, made you have egoistic thoughts”.
S according to this logic, it is normal that people from the Baltic states and other Soviet republics still hate the Russians for what they suffered under Stalin.
Well no, it is according to a set of tragic circumstances and not ‘the logic’ that you discovered on a fucking blog. next time consume less.
Someone does know about the significance of the burning coffin?
Looks like somekind of inner joke, the guys are smilling and the priest is just a soldier with a rough costume…
Anyone can read the lines in the coffin?
Жаль,по англиёски не умею…Падонки немецкие,над разрушенными аэродромами да над своей территорией снимали-Полетали бы так над нашими войсками.Надеюсь эта “рама” получила свой 85 мм зенитный снаряд!
This has nothing to do with russian - those photos are from Harkiv, Ukraine.
These pictures are really cool, how did you ever get your hands on them?
Pat R., these pictures were probably film and or cameras/film, taken off of dead soldiers or from their belongings after abandonment during their rout, err, retreat. They are rather well-taken pictures from a nice camera I would think. Thank you to whomever took these photos and whomever took care of these and made them available for the internet. A picture is a slice of history frozen in time for all eternity.–Rich
