 These are just details. ""The Soviets evacuated it"", do you think that if it was taken by the Germans anyone would have cared? They just took it. It wouldn't matter that the Russians evacuated it, the Germans just took it like the rest, they'd say! Instead, when it's a non-German Axis that takes it, everyone delves into details, bringing up facts, everything just to diminish what little of a victory that non-German Axis has! I know what I'm talking about, because I saw statements like ""The German-Romanian Army took Odessa"" or even worse: ""The Germans took Odessa"", all of that while the German presence during the battle was next to negligeable! You know, this attitude is really hypocritical: you fought the Germans because they thought they were the best, yet you treat them as such by constantly ass-kissing them and even giving them things that are not theirs! And also being unnecessarily forgiving to their mistakes while putting the blame on others! YEAH! VERY PROFESSIONAL! 
 Oh, by the way, we were not ""minor"". I don't say we were ""major"" either, but calling us minor, after all of our massive contribution, is outside of the boundaries of logic and common sense. We were neither of those, we were mid-way. Deal with it.    "
