Today in Labor History January 5, 1968: Reformist Alexander Dubček came to power in Czechoslovakia, marking the beginning of the "Prague Spring." During the Prague Spring, Dubček loosened restrictions on the media, speech and travel. He also created a dual federation within the country made up of the Czech Socialist Republic and Slovak Socialist Republic. However, this was insufficient to mollify activists, who became increasingly defiant of the government. They began to occupy workplaces and formed mutual aid networks. When the Soviet Union and other Warsaw Pact members invaded the country with tanks and 650,000 soldiers, activists fought them with rocks, Molotov cocktails and homemade weapons. The Soviet military predicted they would subdue the country in four days, but the resistance held out for eight months. When they finally quashed the uprising, the Soviets continued to control Czechoslovakia until 1989, when the Velvet Revolution finally ended the Communist regime.

Man loves what he loves

For example, German troops were instructed to climb up onto a T-34 with a bucket of mud and cover its viewports. It's unclear how this technique was supposed to be executed in combat. #tanks #history #WW2 #WWII

NATO Main Battle Tanks vs. Russian MBTs in Ukraine

This is the first major conflict where these two distinct schools of tank design are meeting in large-scale combat. The question is no longer theoretical: which doctrine, which tank, is superior on the modern battlefield?
