The first textbook for the new subject, called The Russian Army in Defence of the Fatherland, has been produced by leading Russian education publisher Enlightenment. Among its authors are two senior figures who work for the defence ministry and Kremlin newspaper Rossiiskaya Gazeta.
Its 368 pages are filled with stories describing the “heroic achievements of Russian soldiers” from the 13th Century to the present day.

According to my history books, all the wars that were ever fought were won by the good guys. What are the odds of that? Isn’t that great?
-Norm MacDonald
Also not great, although I have to say that it’s quite a lot easier to criticize the US military than it is to criticize the Russian military.
