Eileen...I was at St. Catherine's Palace outside of St. Petersburg, and it was most shocking to see the before and after photos of the German invasion. Your information here gave me more background into the horrors of the German invasion. I'm going to explore more of your blog, but for now I can see that there is a gold mine here!
