It really is best when folks share the glory, instead of claiming it for themselves.
This counts for the Russians too. Especially when there's plenty of glory to share and folks to share it.
Also worth remembering that the value of the war was not the killing. It was the survival of the places that weren't fascist and the peace and freedom which followed the war.
"#OTD in 1916 most successful female sniper in history (309 confirmed Nazi kills), Soviet #WWII heroine Lyudmila Pavlichenko was born. She addressed Americans in 1942: I am 25 & have already eliminated 309 Nazis. Don't you think you have been hiding behind my back long enough?"
