They both suffered loss, tragedy and trauma. Officers and politicians didn't matter to those enlisted men who saw nothing but the men who helped them defeat the greatest threat to their nations. It was not a matter of country, but a matter of friendship between the Russian east and American west who together by bond and brotherhood even in the face of their difference defeated the grand threat of Germany. They were not allies, but friends.
Сегодня в шафле вк попался, когда в тачке ехал, до сих пор наизусть помню, зачитал))). Помню, как мы под нее по гаражам прыгали и снимали "клипы" на сониэриксон в 2007 или 2008))) Счастливое детство))
@@NIKOLAOS_1000 a lot of American are suffering financially because of this war going on. Putin tried to negotiate with Zelensky, and find solution to stay neutral to keep Ukraine safe long before the conflict happened. It’s devastating for both sides because of Zelensky arrogance decision. Russian families are losing loves ones such as their sons and fathers, and Ukraine is getting rip to shreds
There is a sublime harking back with films like this, in 2019 the relationship had been deteriorating for years, its almost like deep down knowing that it is doomed to get worse and a hope against hope aspect and reminding of optimisim of long ago to inspire people for better relations such films are often a prelude to a paradigm collapse
@@TonyLaPron indeed but as the decades have passed a naivety and complacency has increased and it almost seemed like the defeat of hitler and the Nazis had led to a fundamental change in human nature for Europe at least war to end wars especially with the end of communism with minimal violence, yet human nature is fatalistic perhaps because we are all mortal. The war in Ukraine has definitely shattered assumptions that have held for decades and is by no means over and predictions are bound to be wayward. I don't want war like most people but it is one of those things that will exist as long as humans do. In recent years there has been far too much regaling in WW2 and was becoming a dangerous distraction from present issues. All these newly erected monuments to past events trying to keep it alive when it's fading away. One thing this conflict will do for Russia and Ukraine is to make them think less about the 1930's and 40's which both had been doing too much of before ... and more about now.
