I don’t think I know that story, but it does ring a bell.

Ive always wished movies would just tell the real story without dramatic license. The truth is usually even better. If you read Audie Murphy's Congressional Medal of Honor Award narrative and compare it to the movie (To Hell and Back), the movie really underplays his heroism and what he actually did. Perhaps this was due in part to his own modesty as he obviously had some control over what was portrayed in the film.
To: DeFault User
THAT is one glaring exception. And I think you are right, it was because he was personally involved and tried to keep the story at a low simmer.
Very good movie.

True. Millions of Russian men and women died fighting the Nazi’s, which was a necessary and just cause, it’s just a crying shame that they only strengthened Communism by doing it.

Pavlov found a discarded New Testament in the house, and after the war despite being a Soviet hero became an orthodox monk. Stalin apparently allowed this. Did Pavlov have a dog by any chance?
