The struggle was real.......and they were going to use whatever recourses they could to that end......an EPIC conflict it was in the east.

The Germans and their allies killed 27 million (12 million military and 15 civilians) of our citizens and destroyed 30% of the national wealth.

no keep posting these - a lot of them I have not seen before - excellent thanks

Some good quality pictures as well that would look great 'colourised'

If you have any tank ones or captured tanks in Russian service can you please post

I can recommend you the book "Captured Tanks in the Red Army", Maxim Kolomiets. Maxim Kolomiets is one of the leading experts in our country on Soviet tank forces. The book describes in detail examples of the use of captured German and Romanian tanks from the first days of the Great Patriotic War to its end.

On the basis of the Pz.III and StuG.III tanks captured in battles, the Soviet Union produced its own self-propelled guns - SU-76I (СУ-76И)

I have published a lot of material in the chat about the Soviet army. I think this may interest you
