The great story of Evgeny Stepanovich Kobytev.

This photo is of the same man 4 years apart after his WW2 experience. He fought for the Soviet Union after the Germans invaded just after he graduated from Kyiv university and was captured, spending 2 years in the “Khorol pit” prisoner camp before escaping and going straight back to the front line and fighting all the way to Germany.

His bravery is undeniable and many young men, even today with our concept of younger generations being soft would still easily be propagandised to fight and die for queen and country against people that without massive states playing power politics would never have a problem with each other.

This brings us to the Ukraine today. After years of western involvement in Eastern Europe ringing Russia with allies armed with “defensive” anti ballistic missile installations that can be used for incoming missile defence or instantly be loaded with nuclear tipped tomahawk cruise missiles, the MK41 missile launcher.

Now with a limited response from the Russian federation, western media war hawks are trying to put into our minds that Putin is somehow the aggressor and are banging the war drum yet again.

To us, Putin is a tyrant, he suppresses opposition in horrendous fashion and if we lived under his rule we would be fighting peacefully against his regime.

But we don’t live under his regime, we live under ours and it’s our regime that wants to play it’s war games around the world, sending more young men and women to die for the hubris of politicians empire mentality.

We need to always show that peace is the only answer and remind people of the brutal reality of war because it’s very easy for people to think it’s fine to use violence against states we disagree with, when they have no concept of its consequences.

THE LEGEND OF TRAPPER NELSON.

THE LEGEND OF TRAPPER NELSON. As you ride up the Loxahatchee River from its mouth in Jupiter, the canopy of slash pines and cabbage palms eventually starts to close in on you. Wildlife hides in the gnarled thickets of mangrove. Everything about this place feels prehistoric. The turns become more and more hairpin, deceiving and disorienting you, as turtles and alligators eye you wearily before slipping beneath the murky water. Nearly eight miles up the northwest fork of the river, a weathered, wooden boathouse juts out into the dark water: the first sign of human existence seen for miles. Alongside it is a dock that leads through a bamboo thicket into what was once the heart of wild Florida: Trapper Nelson’s homestead, zoo and jungle garden. The biggest attraction, though, was Trapper himself. Known as Tarzan of the Loxahatchee, he’d wrestle alligators, trap wildcats, and dazzle guests with his infallible good looks and stories of the wild. He was a man who lived witho...

During the Vietnam War, one of the most dangerous jobs was undertaken by a select few known as "tunnel rats." These unsung heroes were American, Australian, and New Zealand soldiers specially trained as combat engineers, who crawled through Viet Cong underground tunnels to perform perilous covert search and destroy missions.⁠ ⁠ Tunnel rats gently prodded for armed mines in order to disarm them — and prayed that they survived with both their legs intact. Most men were volunteers and tended to be of smaller stature, making it easier for them to maneuver through the cramped subterranean spaces Don't forget to leave your thoughts in the comment section below.

A Waffen SS soldier belonging to "Der Füger" SS Division walks ammo up to the front lines during the invasion of France during May, 1940. The Waffen SS played a crucial role in the invasion of France, they were the spearhead of the infantry. The Waffen-SS quickly gained themselves a reputation for being ruthless and effective killers on the battlefield. Civilians and combatants alike for their effectiveness and brutality. They used this fear as a weapon and manipulation tool convincing many that the Germans were the right nation and they had better futures there. This fear also gave them great control over the population and allowed them to do whatever they wanted which included rape, murder, and executions. Since they were the most fit and capable soldiers in the entire Wehrmacht the were used as the poster-boy for the German army which gave them even more of a false ego. Many of their songs like "SS Marschiet in Feindesland" glorified their brutal a...
