Tactical Air Raid
Railroad yard near Limburg, Germany, struck by 9th Air Force light and medium bombers on Dec. 23, 1944, the first day of good weather during the Battle of the Bulge. Unfortunately, since the rail cars were not marked per the Geneva Convention, Allied POWs in transit sometimes lost their lives in rail attacks.

That russians suffered the worst in the war was because the russian leadership just sent in wave after wave with zero intelligence behind their attacks. The aftermath of Battle of moscow costed over a million soldiers for the soviets and didnt achive anything (Rhzev meatgrinder) so i dont pity russians at all they can only blame themself for their hardship.

Yes, some people like to conveniently overlook that the USSR was an aggressor on other nations even before war with Germany.
By that time the USSR had already invaded, occupied or annexed the Baltics, large part of Poland and Romanian territories, actively encroaching westward.
They are not an "innocent victim".
They where aggressing against many nations long before Germany reneged on the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact.
Which the USSR officially falsely denied:
"For decades, it was the official policy of the Soviet Union to deny the existence of the secret protocol to the Soviet–German Pact. It was only after the Baltic Way demonstrations of 23 August 1989, where two million people created a human chain set on the 50th anniversary of the signing of the Pact that this policy changed"

100th Division infantrymen advancing through ruins in Heilbronn; the German city was almost completely destroyed by the fighting and earlier heavy air raids.

That picture looks unreal. What a destruction in the war.
but that is no fake. the streets have been cleared from rubble of earlier british RAF Raids in December 1944, this picture has been taken in the beginning of April 1945 when the 100th US Inf Division reached the river Neckar and the city of Heilbronn.
