We had a lot of problems with spammers and bot attacks with the stock measures provided by the software. The 7 for registration was a fix that we came up with on our own that has worked quite well. Yes it is a PIA for both you and administration to put you onto your chosen username.
If you come back on and your login does not work retry with your username without the 7.

Thanks for joining us from the administration.

Shown are 198 images from the Eastern Front - quite a lot of obscure Russian & German equipment and combat pics.

While there are not many, some images are graphic and portray badly mangled corpses... and since it's from a Russian site, there may be smut in the margins. I didn't notice any, but I may have been too interested in the pics to see same.

If anyone participating here is offended by this sort of thing, please do not open the link.

This is by far the most interesting photoset I've seen in quite a while! SW

Yes - Russky troops being issued K98s! Some very unusual stuff there - like the old-time Russky armored truck with turret bearing German markings.

I get the feeling most of these were from early on. Something else I noticed about the first few shot up truck pics... locals had made off with the wheels and about everything else of value.

I am unable to identify the Russian bombers shown. SW
