They told me that the Germans would never win.
They said if I joined the Red Army I would get revenge for Stalingrad.
They were expecting to crush the Germans.
They said every death was a sacrifice for victory.
The Germans were expecting to capture Moscow before winter.
The Germans expected small resistance.
The Germans thought they would win.
The Germans... were wrong.
The only winners will be the ones whose flag flies over Berlin.
That flag will be The Red Army's.
