What if it was some Japanese who lived in Italy and joined their army? Damn that reminds me of the poor Japanese captured by the Soviets after D-Day.

Interesting what they are poor in? That they ended up in Normandy or that they somehow ended up in the hands of the Soviets while in Normandy? It seems to me that you have been played too many custom games

The first and fifth still seem to be brothers. But they have different races… Either there is some kind of cheat in their family, or the propaganda of certain ideas has penetrated here, or it’s just a coincidence.

then, you should search about the history of Yang Kyoungjong. I wasn’t trying joke to you,

Wait, wasn’t he Korean? Not that there weren’t also Japanese soldiers with him on D-Day.
To anyone too lazy to research: he was in Japanese army, got captured during Khalin Gol, in GULAG until 1941 when he was forced to fight Wehrmacht, got captured again and was put on Atlantic wall, D-Day ruined his vacation and Americans treated him as if he was Japanese and not a random Korean dude who was drafted.

Imagine that Japan attacked USSR so you, a Korean has to fight Americans in Normandy.
Probably one of the funnier stories of ww2.

Oh, not that, it’s just a newspaper duck. And another genius who came up with a beautiful story for himself.
The chance of him fighting for the Red Army is almost zero, because then the Soviet government even sent its own Germans further from the front, let alone using prisoners of war who were in the army of an ally of Germany.

How can you believe that at all? Although okay, people love beautiful stories and fairy tales. Like, for example, the guy who allegedly cashed fake checks in banks without any problems and was engaged in a dozen different professions, with him even the movie was Catch Me If You Can with Di Caprio as main actor, but this was a just big one hoax. In general, you should always check any information for inconsistencies.

And one of the stupidest hoaxes, because, again, the Soviets were afraid even to send their own German(even communists)into battle (although many of them showed heroism, they were still treated negatively and exiled to Kazakhstan). And the probability that they will use prisoners of war is utter stupidity, because they still need to be brought from Siberia for this. Why is it necessary when there are already own people who are ready to fight?

They put PoWs to the frontlines in late 1941 because they had somewhat recent military training while most of the red army was conscripts without proper training.
No other nation would have been able to replace half of the losses USSR suffered during operation Barbarossa, I would argue that its miracle itself that USSR didn’t collapse.

Not a bad theory, but most Soviet citizens already understood what war is (because of the recent civil war), and again, high morale greatly exceeds combat experience in efficiency, especially when those who have it (I mean experience) have rather a negative desire to fight, which is why they are semi-useful.

Well, I guess, every major(expect British and French) nation would been able to replace it.
So, taking into account the fact that these losses mostly are prisoners, it was rather a serious problem for Germany, since it was difficult to follow them, and it was expensive to kill them all, besides, most of them surrendered due to the hopelessness of the situation called encirclement, so some of them managed to escape from captivity and join/create guerrilla movements from France to Russia. So the Soviet Union even was able to benefit from the defeats of the summer of 41.

Well no. I think this is already a distorted vision of that situation through the prism of the modern worldview.
