Nice pics WH39, thanks for posting...
Dimas : Are there any mosquitos in Russia in November (photo was taken in November 1941)...perhaps it's because of the coming winter, the guy is cold....but still smiling...
The next photo is from an unknown source, most pobably a private collection. As i don't own it, i simply watermarked it with "private collection". When i found it, there was a joke included in the photo. I didn't want to post the photo with the joke, so i removed it, but it can be seen below : quite funny and true as well...
