You're telling me. All 4 people in my family that died after WW1-shortly after WW2 all died at the hands of Stalin. 2 transported to labour camps (1 was a decorated officer in Stalin's army as well!), 1 shot in battle, and the other shot execution style for being a German in Berlin when the Soviets came through.
