I heard a report on a Russian tank website that a Thompson SMG was used by a drunken (lend-lease Sherman, I think) tank crew member to attack another tank crew member, but that the bullets did not penetrate the heavy winter clothing, and convinced that unit that the Thompson is useless. I don't know if that's true or not, or even plausible, but I did read that somewhere.

I have read that as well, the website is www .battlefield.ru some good info on there. was one of my favorite stops when I was doing 3d modeling.
