In the German drama "Our Fathers", there is a bridge section, the German army at that time captured a group of Soviet soldiers, according to the provisions of international law, these soldiers are prisoners of war, can be treated as prisoners of war, but what was not expected is that there was a Soviet military political commissar among the prisoners of war, the German army at that time was not ambiguous, directly took the Soviet political commissar out and shot him, which made people curious, how much the German army hated the Soviet political commissar, caught the political commissar, and could be shot directly.
In fact, this is really not "Our Fathers" there random shooting, in fact, the real situation is similar, in the entire Great Patriotic War, the role played by the Soviet military political commissar is definitely not an obscure existence, but responsible for the political and ideological work of the soldiers, so that ordinary soldiers understand what they are doing, for what, do not watch some Hollywood movies deliberately scandalize the Soviet military political commissar, in fact, the Soviet military political commissar is taking the lead in the charge.
Do you remember a famous photo? It was a soldier holding aloft a TT3 pistol and beckoning the soldiers to charge, yes, this man was called Alexei Yemimenko, he was a political commissar at that time, the political commissar was in the Soviet army, belonged to the strong executive, especially Stalin's Order No. 227, the political commissar became the battlefield inspector, but not as described in some film and television dramas.
Political commissar is hiding behind the black gun people, they are the leader of the charge, many political commissars are fighting in the front line, in the famous Battle of Stalingrad, the commissar casualty rate is almost the same as the soldiers, the entire team, the political commissar has a casualty rate of 85%, and it is precisely because of the Soviet political commissar's huge supervision ability and encouragement effect on the soldiers, so that the German army for the Soviet political commissar is hateful to the bone, regarding them as the same flood beast as the Jews.
I remember a long time ago, a Veteran of the Soviet Army who had participated in the War in Afghanistan wrote a book called "The Division of Perdition", a soldier shot his squad leader, and was still on the playground with various comparisons, at this time, their political commissar came over, the soldier who had gone crazy, saw the political commissar come over, directly frightened, and later, the political commissar disarmed the soldier like no one else.
So, perhaps because of this, we can see that some of the film and television dramas made by the West are deliberately smearing people's political commissars, because they know the importance of soviet political commissars in the army, and by smearing them to achieve smear on the entire Soviet Union, this is what Western countries want to do, which is why Western countries like black Russia so much, in fact, most Soviet soldiers are not afraid of political commissars, but political commissars set an example for all members.
