Hey guys, I have to visit this certain website and read three of these sources for my Russian History class. They're all personal memoirs from the Great Patriotic War. I'm sure someone would appreciate the read:

The first one I read is here, about a Russian tanker:

He crewed T-26s in 1941, then the BT-7, then the T34/76, then a British Matilda, a T34/85, and almost operated in a captured Panther!
One funny anecdote: they captured a German engineer and he helped the men fix up captured German vehicles; they even gave him a uniform and everything. He even was put on armed guard
Anyway, enjoy!
