Is she famous for being hot —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.108.3.220 (talk) 07:48, 8 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No, she is famous for shooting people. She was hot, though.--172.191.205.200 (talk) 05:46, 12 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Some confusion over the accuracy of the dates that she received the Orders of Glory, June 18th and September 22nd. Excerpts from http://www.airaces.narod.ru/snipers/w1/shanina1.htm say that she received Order of Glory 3rd Class on 1st of May 1944 ("Накануне Первомая 1944 года" = "On the eve of the 1st of May 1944"). The same excerpts from the biography and letters from her friend P. Molchanov on May 28th (which you can find on that same page) also suggest that 3rd Class was received far before June 18th. Additionally, since she was mentioned as having received some Order of Glory in the June 9th issue of the magazine Ogonyok (from first line of http://www.a-z.ru/women_cd2/12/4/i80_207.htm), I think May 1st is probably the right date for it, rather than June 18th.

Additionally, I'm not sure September 22nd is the right date for the Class-2 one, since cross-referencing the biography and her diary excerpts are written as though she received the 2nd Class Order of Glory before some events that took place in late June (during said Belarus/Litva campaign). Maybe the Class-2 Order of Glory is June 18th?

Either way, I could be wrong, but I'm just curious where these dates were obtained from, I'd like to know, too. :) 173.55.242.194 (talk) 12:21, 14 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
