He has my respect for just living through and surviving THAT.


IIRC he wasn't there during critical operations. For his ****-up at Kharkov he deserved to be executed. He used his power as a "Front military council member" (Party advisor) to insist on pushing forward even after it was obsious that it's a German trap...

Horsepucky. You speak (type) and understand american english better than some americans I know. Language dodge is not accepted. I prefer the 'Col. Klink' ruse, myself. ;)

So.. which do you admire more.. Stalin for his purges, or Kruschev for his reforms and stellar dipolmacy?
