"The Red Army does have a noble and lofty aim in the war which inspires
it to great exploits. It is precisely this that explains why the patriotic
war brings forth among us thousands of heroes and heroines
ready to go to their death for the sake of the liberty of their Motherland."

-- J. Stalin.
from "Order of the Day No. 55," February 23, 1942
