From what I gather they accepted no help from other governments, that doesnt go to say that they didnt accept help from passers by with miltitary experience. I can only tell you what Ive been told but AFAIK and thats about all I know its the truth ;) So the Soviets would ask for some random Kiwi dude to help them, while having the largest standing army (2 million active in the army alone) in the world, plus countless paramilitary forces, scientists, engineers, emergency crews. (And nearly the entire population had some sort of paramilitary experience. ) After an accident, a nuclear accident, that was covered up to a huge extent, they would accept the help of a foreigner? A 68 year old guy at that. One who fought against Soviet allies in 'nam? Really? (I'd more likely think if they found him somewhere, a former western soldier in the Soviet Union, they would have had him tortured and hung as a spy.) Sorry dude, that's just a bit too far fetched. And by the dates he was born in 1919, which is after WW1. I think you oughta get your facts straight buddy boy. |
