The Soviet invasion of Manchuria was a bad joke - AFTER we had dropped
the Hiroshima bomb, and Japanese capitulation was certain, they
marched into a conquered area where the Japanese were grossly
overstretched and the native population were going to hail them as
liberators. A total "us-too" invasion.
