His reason for suicide is very clear. During operation Bagration he was probably about to be captured, and him being Russian would have suffered greatly
A very interesting perspecitve, indeed. I wonder if this translator went crazy seeing all these atrocities, on the other hand, his fate in the hands of the Bolsheviks would have meant a gruesome death, too. By the way, there were some fractions within the German military and foreign policy apperatus that were against this cruel style of "Vernichtungskrieg" in the East, but they were eventually too few, without meaningful influence and therefore largely ignored or sidelined by the Nazi leadership. Winning the hearts and minds instead of "Vernichtung durch Arbeit" would have prevented the growth of the partisan movement and improved German logistics considerably, especially in Ukraine and other oppressed Soviet republics (such as the Baltics).
Yes. Depressing. "Gulag," "Uncle Vanya" "Love and War." Perhaps Russians are born realists while westerners take advantage of any situation to appease the shallow mind or prove how whimsical they are.@@j.dragon651
Credit it to him for recognizing it, and demonstrating the sincerity of his disgust in about as dramatic a fashion as one can. It would be difficult to know what it meant to remain true to one's country if that country was suddenly seized by gang bolsheviks completely hostile to every institution that had previously defined the country.
@@hatuletoh True heheh at least Bolsheviks did not discriminate and just treat everyone like shit :D at least thats equality. "Darkies" in the USA where forbidden to use arms and had to sit in the back of the bus in the USA after they won the war of freedom and Democracy

@@MilitaryClubHISTORYserious question What if your obligated by morality and your principals and value as a man to not cooperate with what your commanders have ordered you to do.

I would love to learn more of this Ivan Kaminsky's story and read the rest of his diary. I tried searching on Google but nothing came up for him. I'm not sure if I spelled it wrong.
Google his full name in Russian and you'll find him : Иван Иванович Стеблин-Каменский Results are all in Russian. Still you can use translator. P.S. he is not that guy that comes up in Wikipedia
Many don't know this but at no point in Russian history nowhere near were there so many collabarotaros and defectors to the enemy. It is up to 1 million only Russians alone, both from abroad and Soviet Union. And that with the fact that most quite much dislike the Nazi party and Hitler personally from the beggining, and later outright revolting against them once the saw all the horrors perpetrated by them. That just tells you how bad it was that people were literally ready to side with the devil himself only to fight against stalin and bolsheviks.
A common theme in this narration , from his Russian perspective , is the chauvinism of the German soldiers . The fanaticism of the indoctrinated nazi soldiers raping and pillaging is especially disturbing .we must learn from these narrations and reflect on how we treat others of different races , creed, etc.
Because people who built an entire industry devoted to one and only purpose - the manufacture of death (Auschwitz may ring a bell) couldn't possibly be monsters.
How is he a traitor? He fought gallantly for Russia & when that country was destroyed by the Communists & transformed into the Soviet Union he left. Lots of Russians fought on the German side in the hope that Communism would be destroyed & Russia reborn.

a very tragic story
Well, that was depressing.
Did the video title clue you it would be depressing?
If you have read anything by any Russian authors it is all depressing lol. Yet, it is great literature.
Yes. Depressing. "Gulag," "Uncle Vanya" "Love and War." Perhaps Russians are born realists while westerners take advantage of any situation to appease the shallow mind or prove how whimsical they are.@@j.dragon651
I wonder what are the name of the writer of these memoirs, and the title of his book. I would like to purchase it if it is available in French.
Ironic. You bettay your country because it is badly managed and then discover you joined a side thats even worse.
Did he betray his country or did he revolt against the evil men who ran it?
Credit it to him for recognizing it, and demonstrating the sincerity of his disgust in about as dramatic a fashion as one can. It would be difficult to know what it meant to remain true to one's country if that country was suddenly seized by gang bolsheviks completely hostile to every institution that had previously defined the country.

He " betrayed " the Bolsheviks, not his country...
Communism is a betrayal of country & everything. Your IQ must be incredibly low.

A soldier with a good heart.
Perhaps. But in my opinion, to support and participate in the invasion of your homeland is a betrayal.
A good heart? He invaded an brought terror to his own homeland

His homeland had been hijacked by judeobolshevik devils.
interesting memories thanks

Could be AI bs. Certainly poor voice software.

Muito bom!

Another diary...? 😂
I think we should be sceptical of this diary. It portrays the Germans as monsters and so would have served the ends of the Soviets.
Because people who built an entire industry devoted to one and only purpose - the manufacture of death (Auschwitz may ring a bell) couldn't possibly be monsters.
I’ve thought about that too with a lot of these artificial intelligence read books.
On one hand the Germans are suffering , then later living a life of technical superiority. This is a very poor piece of propaganda. Disjointed..
I think the Germans was on the right course until it comes to the racial biases... Stalin needed to be removed
This guy was foolish enough to write down his thoughts. Obviously knew that would get him either killed or driven to despair. Sad.
proof there is no God.
Bull...!!!
The diary of a traitor
Nope
Any Russian working for the Nazi's is a traitor.@@BlueCollaredGrit
Easy to say when you have no experience of that situation. Did you write that on your phone?
The country was taken over by murderous, hateful Jews in 1917. So he was a true Russian Patriot.
How is he a traitor? He fought gallantly for Russia & when that country was destroyed by the Communists & transformed into the Soviet Union he left. Lots of Russians fought on the German side in the hope that Communism would be destroyed & Russia reborn.
