>haha the soviets shot everyone who retreated
>>18513204I think literally every army ever did that.
Soviets also had two soldiers per rifle. I know this cause I played call of duty
>>18513204correct
>>18513204Correct.America and most western nations hadn't shot any deserters in over 100 years at that point. It's a retarded practice that wastes manpower that can be allocated elsewhere while the soldier faces military courts.
>>18513204>pretending that this Italian MP is actually a Jewish commissar and he's there to carry out summary executions of American citizens>please ignore there is not a single account of such an execution taking place, the MP field manuals that describe their roles and responsibilities in detail don't mention such executions and carrying out summary executions would be considered murder under American law
>>18513316Wasn't it also his family who uploaded the picture in the first place?
If his job was roforce everyone off the boat at gunpoint, why is he in the second row and not the last?
*to force
>>18513318>>18513335Turns out, stormtrannies aren't very bright. Also to add, the US military is famous for only carrying out ONE (1) execution for desertion in the entire war, not Jewish commissars running around blasting GIs left and right.
>>18513204Why would the Jewish barrier troop be in the front of the boat?
>>18513220Yes but not on another continent across the biggest ocean - fighting a country You've never heard about.
>>18514447Ah yes the unknown country of.... Germany
>>18513204>haha the soviets shot everyone who retreatedSource: Some hollywood movie and a video game inspired by that hollywood movie.Order 227 is one of the greatest distortions of ww2 because retards dont know what the order actually meant and what it was trying to adress, so normie retards instantly believe Soviets would shoot their own soldiers in the back during an assault.
>>18513318Looking at the photo, with the exception of the MP most of the soldiers look pretty Anglo (the dude in front is clearly Irish).
>>18514574Did barrier troops exist or not?
>>18514578that one guy in the right rear in the yellow vest may be a Slav but yes most of them look Anglo
>>18514582They did, but far behind the front line. They were meant to stop mass-retreating of entire formations because entire divisions would sometimes abandon their defensive line even at the rumor of a German advance.Normies however have this weird perception that soldiers were ltierally deployed at the heat of a battle ready to gun down anyone who simply pulled back from an assault.Also the barrier troops almost exclusively caught and executed officers if a column was found retreating from its defensive line. Only a few thousands in total were executed from order 227.
>>18514578>Looking at the photo, with the exception of the MP most of the soldiers look pretty Anglo (the dude in front is clearly Irish).Judging by that ethnic distribution, this unit may be a bunch of New Englanders.
>>18514592i hadn't thought about that but if there's an Italian, Irish guy and a bunch of WASP-looking dudes it does seem consistent with that region's demographics.
>>18513204>Retarded OP literally saw one /pol/shit post and simply immediately accepted it as fact I could make an image saying that I have a huge cock and used it to fuck OP's mom and he'd literally believe it
>>18514597>I have a huge cock and used it to fuck OP's momthat's me, though, not you
