             If you can add any data of most effective soldiers, please E-mail me. This list of infantry experts is incompleted, because in Soviet army almost weren't statistics about personal victories. In many cases I was forced to use a fragmental sources, so some scores may be actually bigger.
             This is the first infantry aces rating in the internet. Before the establishment of my own domen wio.ru, this site grew up at the free hostings (geocities.com, then boom.ru).
