    No. Much that it pains me, honours were equal. ;)

    Hint - google up for Operation Uranus and see the orders of battle. If ranges were somewhat similar, the Soviets had lots more arty, and they had been stockpiling ammunition for months for the occasion.

    Seriously, as I probably wrote that post at some insane hour, my friend got into Middlebury on that program, graduated and she's doing very well.

    Cheers,
