They all have rifles, so I guess when they say no they mean no.
Those that forget History will be condemed to repeat it.

Soviet female snipers were amazing...brave, and damned good shots! Nope, I wouldn't mess with them...snipers or not!

The women's battalion.

They would undress their prisioners and tie them to a bed or something, whereupon they would excite the poor guys to sastfy their sexual urges. After all that, they either castrated their victims and then placed the organ in their own mouth or they crushed the victim's testicals with a hammer.

I'm not sure if this is a training photo or an action shot. Either way, the Soviets made use of women snipers.

Women just may have made better snipers than men, from what little I've read on the subject. Their build seemed more suited to the tight confines and "prowling" stealth required.

I think they're in a training, 'cause the instructor didn't hide herself.

I agree. :iagree:

I ran across this site WW2 Snipers recently. It posts numbers claimed by snipers, both men and women of WWII; Soviet, German and one Finn. I have no idea about the validity of the site and it clearly is a Russian URL. A quote from there:

Quote

On 1943, Soviet snipers included over 1000 woman-snipers; they were credited with 12000+ confirmed kills during the war.


There are several pictures of female Soviet snipers there. I think by definition all of these sniper shots would have to be posed. Can't see maintaining concealment and Kodak moments going hand in hand. ;)

Let's not forget Tania Chernova.....she was a real person....not a Character in a somewhat LAME movie.

Thanks for the link! Wow, Tania and Vasseli (sp?) really had a thing huh? And fair play to her for defeating a fella in hand to hand combat.

You don't like Enemy at the Gates? Is it because of it's historical misleading(s)?
