In case you thought it was.
From a German behind German lines in Russia:
We had no proper sentries, just a few men strolling about with their rifles swung about their shoulders, as the whole of the 16th Motorized was meant to be between us and the Russians. There was quite a lot of fraternization with the villagers. I remember that some of them had never seen a lemon before. Then the inhabitants began to withdraw to their homes. We thought, “that seems a little peculiar,” and soon the village was completely empty of Russians. A short time afterwards there was the sound of horses, and a dust cloud to the south. Some people said it was a supply column from one of the Hungarian divisions. Then they were upon us, like an American film of the Wild West, sturdy little horses riding at a gallop through our camp. Some of the russians were using submachine guns, others were swinging sabers. I saw two men killed by the sword less than ten meters from me. They had towed up a number of those heavy two-wheeled machine guns. After a few minutes, whistles began to blow and the horsemen faded away. The machine gunners started blasting us at very close ranges with enfilade fire. Soon tents and lorries were ablaze, and through it all the screams of the wounded men caught in the flames.
And in the Pacific theater the Americans and Japanese were fighting in the rainforests of uninhabited islands.
