When he describes the face of the German soldier, I can’t help but think the German was on the methamphetamine rations they were given. That stuff was rampant on the eastern front.
As a veteran myself I completely understand the fear of going from mid to long range engagements, to close one's. Its scarier, louder, and happens much faster. It's also much more personal at close range too, which is undeniably scary the first time but wanes over time. The longer that you spend in active combat, the more your self-preservation instinct lessens. What a legend, having his jaw broken, and then punched back into place. If there's such a place as Valhalla, I hope to meet this warrior and have a stiff drink with him.
@@TrueShoot1000 Can you fight while in constant danger, and given barely enough food to full your stomach? no right? you cant even imagine the horrors... grow up
It's kind of messed up, that in the west we learn about the eastern front through German perspective only. We've kind of absorbed the idea that the Red Army were just mindless waves of cannon fodder, without really questioning it.
@@rchave don't forget Germans committed some of the worst atrocities in human kind in Russia. And famous ppl like George Patton said Russia is the enemy. Western imperialistic ideals.. .

What a legend, battle hardened veteran!
Nice to see a Soviet veteran interview. One or two on TH-cam. While u have millions of other Ww2 vet interviews. Media bias....
Ita prolly cause russians prolly use a different website

Sorry don’t speak Russian. You need subtitles. TH-cam is mainly used by English speakers.
EN subtitles are available in the settings
use your brain
You need to learn how to use TH-cam my guy..
Nobody does, don t worry
Seriously?
I don't speak Russian and all I had to do was to activate the subtitles
