    ....but they just didn't have a guess that they would play with very high stakes-the future of the world with its Hitlers,the Cold War and other things.Everyone who wants can draw the line from ...the Middlesexe Battalion in Siberia[Dad's army which made up of men declared unfit for battle ,so called 'Hernia Battalion'] to the WWII.There are no any 'petty details' into the History...

    Although people usually tend to miss the 'details of the events' and keep a blind eye on the things which they unlike to recognize...or which are not to suit to their own scheme been adopted by 'em before.If Lloyd George,for example,thought that Harkiv was a general rather than a city-and ,as always in international matters,ignorance,my dear friends,bred indiffenence and problems...Sir W.Churchill knew where that Harkiv is to be and wanted to launch a Western crusade against commies,but what was he able to do on his own?In Febreary 1945,he was alone against 'sweet couple' of Stalin&Roosevelt in defending of ideas of liberty....though it was only he,but not Lloyd George ,who was so much upset by the fact that he was forced to seek the help from Stalin in 1941.Such things guys...
