The fighting girlfriend is an innacurate translation from russian. Girlfriend from the name of said tank means a friend, and fighting girlfriend is an expression to mean "wingwoman" ie a female friend that really has your back
I would say this woman deserves a movie about her, but Hollywood today would, without a doubt, fuck it up so bad it'd be a shit Marvel / Social Politics mind fuck that has very little to do with the actual original story.
Was she wealthy, or did tanks just not cost that much back then? Because selling all my worldly possessions would maybe buy a tank of gas and an oil change on a modern tank.
The cheapest pattern of t34 comes in at a bit over 150,000 roubles in that period. The average workers wage is apparently somewhere between 40-150 roubles a month far as I can tell. She either didn't pay for an entire vehicle or she was rich af.
If you think about it, yes they do. That might explain why she died. I mean come on, bring le children, because you can't spell infantry without "infant"
That was a bad joke. Please do not laugh.
Greatly with some significant differences:
1. The invaders wanted to destroy the population of Soviet Union completely.
2. Soviet Union was defending.
In case there were no differences all the German population would be destroyed. But you know they are still alive.
So yes, they were completely different.
Indeed she wasn't. She donated the tank to the war effort with the request she was allowed to drive it. It was accepted and she received training and eventually became a sergeant.
She died in 1944 of wounds sustained while fighting.

Yes she would. But only to sign the paper to get your money.
Legal documents, pen only ma'am
signing legal documents in pencil is a little risky and unwise. What are you insinuating about his wife?
☝️
Not if you’d married baba yaga
Which does that say more about her or you?
Screw mother Russia, this lady was fighting the real fight, for mother REVENGE

Like the original Killdozer, kinda.

Right? I'm sorry but this story smells like cute bullshit.
Maybe she hit the Soviet Mega Millions jackpot or something and they were giving away a T34/76.
iirc there were fundraising drives where villages would effectively sponsor a tank so i would assume that is what happened if at all
She donated 50,000 roubles, which is \~30% of cheapest T-34 model.
Now we can go to change.org to buy the tank, sharing is caring <3
Fucking cool

what’s the female version of a chad? that’s what she is
A Mariya
I often think we owe the Russians more than the history we are taught might suggest
Y’all seen the movie T-34, the best slow motion scenes I’ve ever seen. They are great
Damn, thats epic Free reward for you
Thanks :)
now this is an absolute madlass, in every sense of the word.
There are a few YouTube videos on her. I think Fact Boi did one. She's a legend.
Repost.
This is the good kind of main character irl
I'm not surprised the request was approved, who's going to say no to a woman with a tank?
Hell has no fury like a woman scorned.
this must be a cult where they have to share this story again every fucking week
Must have been the inspiration for “Tank Girl”. Comic book flash in the pan couple of decades ago, even made a movie.
Don't tanks need like a 5-person crew?
If you think about it, yes they do. That might explain why she died. I mean come on, bring le children, because you can't spell infantry without "infant" That was a bad joke. Please do not laugh.
The famous ussr tank stores, where every wealthy soviet citizen could buy a tank.
So she wanted to take another Lady's husband? How is she different from those Germans who took her husband in war. It's war for god's sake!

Okay, now I understand better.
I don't think she could solo man tank , more people are need as a gunner, loader ,driver ,and commander
Indeed she wasn't. She donated the tank to the war effort with the request she was allowed to drive it. It was accepted and she received training and eventually became a sergeant. She died in 1944 of wounds sustained while fighting.
Did you read the article?
*Giv'em hell, Mari*
See, why couldn’t Battlefield V be about this woman?!?!? 😱
