My great uncle served under Patton and was captured in 44. He was sent east to a concentration camp. When the Russian army started getting close to the camp he said the German guards were "terrified". They said the Russians would kill them all and began marching the prisoners west to surrender to the allies. When NAZI's claim someone is brutal I have no doubt that they don't play nice.
The Russian's who live in the Donbass area have claimed the Ukrainian neo-nazi brigade has been murdering civilians for 8 years. Maybe some pissed off Russian troops are getting a little payback.
"The time for war has not yet come, but it will come and that soon, and when it does come, my advice is to draw the sword and throw away the scabbard." Gen. T.J. Jackson, March 1861
