I cannot. I am mainly asking because I have never read of widespread rape committed by German troops. I find this odd because crimes committed by Germans are quite well documented. I wonder why these are different.

Still, I would be reluctant to take anything printed in Soviet Russia (or any of the post war communist states) as fact. This is not a dig at you or the Russian people, so please do not take it as such. It is just that works printed in that era were done so under strict government control. It would be extremely difficult to seperate fact from sheer propaganda.
