Lots great photos of the Red Army

Pictures and videos from the 2nd world war still keep amazing me, however the people in the comments on those pictures are retarted.

"YOU RUSSIAN COMMUNISTS PRICK AMERICA WIL DESTROY YOUUAUU"

Really...

*facepalm*

I don't know what Americans get teached in schools but it sure as hell is not as objective as what we learn here in The Netherlands.

These tanks look post ww2 to me

Also the is2 in the image i've attached has always interested me. Is there a known story behind it? I cant understand why its knocked out facing the oncoming red army, perhaps it was captured? or was the driver lost?


Thos tanks are post-war. The round clam-shell turret was not seen until the 50s. I suspect that photo was taken during the Hungarian revolution about 1957 or so.

Those look like IS3:

Which came to be ready at the end of the war, we can know when it takes place once people know what the language the writing on the shops is. I know that alot of pics are staged but there are so many PPSHs next to how people on here try to make out. Also this is what a Russian hero should get a looted weapon:
