A German soldier killed by a Soviet sniper.

Vasily Zaitsev is one of the best snipers of the Second World War, who destroyed more than two hundred German soldiers in a month and a half. 

Zaitsev's legendary confrontation with the German supersniper would later be called the most famous sniper duel of the war.

Sleeping With the Enemy

Image
S leeping With the Enemy As US troops crossed into Germany, General Eisenhower gave his men strict orders to stay away from the locals. But thousands struck up relations with German women, and many of them fathered children they never knew. The official reason for the fraternization ban introduced in September 1944 was to punish German civilians, while maintaining the authority of the occupying forces and protecting them from the insidious force of Nazi propaganda. In fact, it served another, more delicate purpose. After landing in Italy in 1943, the Allied armies had been badly weakened by the rapid spread of venereal disease brought about by the soldiers' contact with prostitutes. American GIs were warned against encounters with local women. But it was to no avail -- in the chaos of the postwar years, GIs and German girls both needed each other. Corned beef and cigarettes In 1945, Christa Ronke was 16 years old and working at an officers' mess hall in southwestern Berli...

Artist becomes online celebrity after hanging naked in unsuccessful performance

Image
  Artist becomes online celebrity after hanging naked in unsuccessful performance. A Norwegian artist living in Britain has had an unsuccessful performance turned into a hit online video. Hilde Krohn Huse, 26, decided to go to woodland near her home in Surrey and film her performance as part of an art project. "This was a scene I wanted to include in a video. In my head it was supposed to be very simple: go up, hang, come down and go home," said the artist in an interview with BBC Radio 5 Live. The detail is that the artist would do this naked, in an isolated area, hanging by ropes from a tree branch, without any type of protection. It was a very isolated place, a forest. The closest people were half a mile away." After hanging upside down by her leg for a little over a minute, to get the image that would be part of the project, Hilde tried to free herself from the rope, but the knot around her ankle was too tight. After hanging by her leg to get the image that wo...

The capture of brave Russian officer Rosinski

Image
The capture of brave Russian officer Rosinski This is a shocking image and I apologize in advance for sharing it, but here’s one that truly got to me… in Belarus, 1918, after WWI had already ended, the brave Russian officer Rosinski was captured by the Bolsheviks. The Bolsheviks tortured the captain, likely to get information out of the man, which he bravely refused to give. After that, they simply continued with the torture out of some sick sense of innate cruelty. He was ‘the enemy’ and he was at their mercy, so they brutally murdered their captive. The brave captain was emasculated. And anally impaled on a tree branch. All this while still alive. Alfred Savoir, the man who published the picture and was an eye witness to the death of the brave military officer, described "M. B.", who ordered this atrocity, thus: I knew him not long ago; he was a charming teenager with an ironic wit and joker. He was rubbed with French culture, he admired the novels of Barres and h...

  Remembering the Bangladesh Liberation War: The Struggle for Independence and the Atrocities of 1971 . The Bangladesh Liberation War of 1971 was a pivotal moment in the history of South Asia. The conflict was sparked by the refusal of the government of Pakistan to recognize the results of the 1970 elections in East Pakistan, where the Awami League, a Bengali nationalist party, had won a majority of seats. The Pakistan Army launched a military operation in East Pakistan, known as Operation Searchlight, in an attempt to suppress the Bengali nationalist movement and maintain control over the region. The military operation led to widespread atrocities, including mass killings, rape, and forced displacement. The Pakistan Army targeted civilians, particularly members of the Hindu minority, in a campaign of ethnic cleansing. The Bengali nationalist movement, led by Sheikh Mujibur Rahman and his Awami League party, organized resistance against the Pakistani military and formed a prov...

Japanese troops executed Australian prisoner of war John R. Gray at Rabaul

Image
 On this day 20th February 1942.  For not revealing the whereabouts of his commanding officer Lieutenant Colonel J. J. Scanlan, Japanese troops executed Australian prisoner of war John R. Gray at Rabaul, New Britain by slashing his chest open and removing his heart while he was still alive. The Battle for Rabaul was a complete success for the invading Japanese forces. Of the over 1,000 Australian soldiers taken prisoner, around 160 were massacred on or about 4 February 1942 in four separate incidents around Tol and Waitavalo. Six men survived these killings and later described what had happened to a Court of Inquiry. The Australian government concluded the prisoners were marched into the jungle near Tol Plantation in small groups and were then bayoneted by Japanese soldiers. At the nearby Waitavalo Plantation, another group of Australian prisoners were shot. The Allies later placed responsibility for the incident on Masao Kusunose, the commanding officer of the 144th Infantry ...
