To fight in the defense of freedom, in the defense of justice, in defense of eternal principals of morality transcendentally ordained. To fight against oppression and wickedness. To fight for "The Adversary of God and Man." For these reasons I am a warrior, Lord.

"We fight not for honor, nor glory, nor for wealth. But only and alone
we fight for freedom, which no good man surrenders but with his life."

By Robert Bruce: Scottish Warrior

Let us celebrate peace and pray………..for war is the last wish of a Warrior.

You missed something Fed. ... when the Russian flag was being raised in Berlin, one (or was it two?) of the flag-bearers was an Armenian.

Besides that, Mikoyan was the one that created the Mig airoplanes without which Russia couldn't have defeated Germany.
