Re: IVBIA-45 VVS fighter pilots manual
There is a time and place for everything.
IMHO Evgeny has a right to be proud. Whatever the circumstances up to 1939 and the events of the cold war, the Soviets paid the right to be proud in blood, sweat and tears (to steal a quote). Evgeny wants to share some interesting (rare) data. This should not be spoiled by an unnecessary discussion about right and wrongs. There is such a thing as kicking a dead horse. Do we need a reminder every now and then that there are more sides to a story? Yes, I think so. But how we bring a message is just as important as the content. Thanks again Evgeny for sharing your material with the community and good luck in the army! We'll be waiting for you to share some stories afterwards
