When they give you a gun, you know what to do.
Many Russian conscript POWs have said they never handled a weapon. They were told they were going to be drivers, then trucked somewhere to then be given a shovel and told to dug trenches. Then a few weeks later trucked to the front-line and told to sit in a hole and observe.
So, cannon fodder after the hard labour is done?
That's sad to hear.
