A russian picture

Probably more of a photo gallery thing, but figured only those in the milsurp section would truly appreciate it:

 

[Grouse Man]

Tusken Raiders?

 

[DaveGP]

It was too hard blowing a bugle with a gas-mask on....

 

[Talquin]

In mother Russia Air breathes you!

 

[ilovepotatos]

As if those rifles aren't a pain to shoot without any mask on to begin with!

 

[cantom]

Too many pierogies??

That must be the Russian version of being piped into battle.

Being accordianed in?

I guess with their attrition rates it added just the right degree of ludicrousness to any situation

Looks like football helmets.

 

[Juster]

Looks like pilot's helmets, maybe he is the mid upper turret accordionist.

All I can think of is hearing John Candy in a high squeaky voice,
"I'm Yosh, and this is my brother Stan, and we're de Happy Wanderers.
Tonight we're going to be doing a musical tribute to John Williams."

You would be surprised at how a good polka type tune on an accordian can get the troops motivated for the coming battle. This is an old Russian trick to try and make the troops seem invincible, they play with your mind.....

"Un now, vee dance!"

But it worked.

Besides there is irony in the fact that Polka is very much an Austrian Icon.

It's a failed secret project of chemical weapon: i look like an accordion, but it is full of chemical agent.

Once dropped behind the enemy's line, they assumed that the bored germans will try the instrument, unwillingly killing all the soldiers around.

Testing revealed the "project accordion" to be efficient but also revealed that the soviet standard gasmask have some major flaws so they cancelled the whole project, fearing that knowledge of the gasmasks problems will dangerously affect the morale of the nation...
