As a side-note, while not probably good reaction material, the Military History Visualized video about the Rzhev meatgrinder is a very interesting story of a front/battle that is really not talked about, highly recommend you take a look at it. P.S. The slighty gray beard looks awesome.

Hey, History Guy. Have you watched Soviet film series Liberation from 1970? You can find it on KZfaq in 4K with English subtitles. It starts from The Battle of Kursk and goes through the whole war ending in Berlin. The whole series is about 6h long. There are some issues like T-55 tanks on the background without even an attempt to make it looks like German one, but it is still, by my opinion, one of the best movies about WW2.

Great vid man! My great-grandfather was in this battle, he was in the 2nd line of defence, fighting the SS pazer divisions, he was declared MIA by the Supreme Command, but I am certain that he died fighting nazis to the end, as every man today and in the past in Russia. (Quick caveat - my family was aristocratic one before the revolution, but we didn't flee - we were, and still are - the soldier caste, generational fighters for the Russia, and it's faith and people)
