Talk:Russian Liberation Army
Rewrite needed
This does not read like an encyclopedic article. Rather it reads like an argument about the pro's and con's of fighting for or against the Nazi's. The "rationale" for why someone might fight for the RLM is apart from the history of the RLM. Would the author like me to try my hand? Will Nesbitt 06:18, 23 May 2007 (CDT)
- I have been meaning to do something about this. I am preparing a lecture on the topic, so maybe I should write a more straightforward encyclopedic article. --Morten Juhl Johansen 01:20, 16 November 2007 (CST)
- I'm completely replacing the 2007 content. Howard C. Berkowitz 21:11, 6 March 2010 (UTC)

That's a *very* interesting monograph, although he is far from being a Wordsmith, that's fer sure! Hayford Peirce 02:55, 7 March 2010 (UTC)
- Monographs from SAMS, the advanced and optional phase of the Command and General Staff College, tend to be thoughtful if not wordsmithed. This is the spot in which very bright officers are encouraged to challenge the conventional wisdom.
General challenges of this article(s)
There needs to be reasonably sourced, as well as synthesized, discussion of the German and Russian strategic thinking beyond the immediate invasion situation, not necessarily in this article. The development of Soviet wartime propaganda is a substantial area, from the initial and somewhat ineffective defense attitudes that led to the spontaneous uprising, to Ilya Ehrenburg late in the war.
