Not so much black and white, and of course seldomly mentioned in those official history lessons.

I know that it was very common for the Germans to force Soviet POWs to fight for them usually ones form outlying states like the Georgia and especially Mongolians that where in the Red Army.

This person is a bit different though because he was forced to fight for three different sides.Most other only where forced to fight for their captures and only once (Soviet POW forced to fight for Germany)
