It looks like they dropped insantly, where they were standing. It doesn't look like an explosion took them out too.

In a book I read the writer said that one Finnish soldier he interviewed for the book said that Russians from far east were tough motherfuckers.

Normal guys dropped from pain with 1 or 2 bullets from SMG if they weren't killed right away.

Siberian farm boys could take 5-6 and still didn't give up, fought until the end despite the pain, unless killed right away by SMG fire.

>>29300927
I like this picture, it shows that everyone was just a human. Most of the soldiers were simple men hoping that one day they will returned unharmed to their homes, wives, brothers.

These men have trained for battle since they were grade schoolers. Just how long would the war go on before they're all dead? Hours? Days?

It's good to have threads like these from time to time, we always tend to forget that hard truth with all our posts about cool planes and explosions. I have nothing to contribute but you most certainly have my attention.

Kinda symbolic if you think about it. The eye in the darkness can see clearly, while the one in the light can't because of the broken glass. After witnessing the darkness of war, the light has been shattered. He may never look at the world/his fellow man the same way.

Ball turret gunners wouldn't enter them until after they were in the air, and would leave them before landing.
You can still enter/exit a ball turret when in flight, it's just difficult and requires a lot of squirming.

If you are in enemy territory and the kid is old enough to convey your visit and direction of travel you have to end him/her. Preferably quietly and unless you are a monster, quickly.
If this is unacceptable to you, stay and care for the child, remove your weapons and state to the enemy forces once they arrive that you surrender and hope that they follow the Geneva convention in regards to prisoners of war.

If the child is young enough to not be able reveal your position and direction of travel you provide it with some some cloth or wrapping for warmth and sustenance, chocolate bars are popular and even a baby can usually digest them. Leave the child behind and let the enemy forces overrun the village and discover the child.

If you're in neutral or friendly territory, walk or carry the child to a friendly posting for care.
