Photo of soldiers with what I believe to be civilian ski hats. Another cool thing to note is that I think both are wearing the rare early war suspenders.

@KeckKalem27339 @DavidNaval80138 @coolerkdawg @DocStrangelove2 I didn't lie you are just using semantics to be wilfully ignorant of my point, there's literally an "archaic" definition at the bottom that shows how regular people use it in regular speech. This is Twitter not some historical debate where I need to use formal language.

I actually love seeing the Soviets interacting with Japanese items. Soviet-japanese war and Khalkin Gol needs more attention especially in reenacting.

Probably one of my favorite photos during the GPW, showing incredible diversity in equipment of the Red Army.

@KeckKalem27339 @DavidNaval80138 @coolerkdawg @DocStrangelove2 "Yeah this photo of poor people desperately needing food proves my point that Americans weren't starving"

[Average Frontovik @TheFrontovik]

@KeckKalem27339 @DavidNaval80138 @coolerkdawg @DocStrangelove2 A large line of people awaiting food really shows American food security in the 1930s.

@DavidNaval80138 @coolerkdawg @DocStrangelove2 Not gonna deny that, the Soviet famine was extreme. For stature the U.S. definitely wins but in my opinion both had capable men to fight on of the most terrible wars in human history.

[Average Frontovik @TheFrontovik]

@DavidNaval80138 @coolerkdawg @DocStrangelove2 Millions did not die from starvation. I'm not saying the United States went through a Holodomor like event as you're trying to hint at. I'm saying most U.S soldiers at this point were very frail and malnourished having to go through extreme poverty during the Great Depression.

@homosovieticus_ @coolerkdawg @DocStrangelove2 This is true, I have a few tins of Tushonka which is stewed beef sent en masse to the USSR for rations, Spam was also sent in the millions. The Soviets sarcastic called those rations "the second front" the U.S. was promising

[Average Frontovik @TheFrontovik]

@DavidNaval80138 @coolerkdawg @DocStrangelove2 Most of them, America and Germany famously

[Average Frontovik @TheFrontovik]

@LibRightOpinion @DocStrangelove2 There are numerous American WW2 experts that recognize the drastic impacts of the Great Depression on U.S. Soldiers during the war. There was a strong concern in the U.S Army to give proper nutrition to soldiers before they went off to war which was the same for the Red Army.

@LibRightOpinion @DocStrangelove2 Americans also went through a famine in the 1930s

[Average Frontovik @TheFrontovik]

@rountad @DocStrangelove2 They did have enough rifles to give their soldiers, they actually had more than enough, to the point they kinda locked away foreign aid weapons because they had enough guns and they didn't want to deal with supplying a new type of ammunition to their entire front.
