No one in the U.S. will understand what you mean, ultimately taking you for a communist trying to turn U.S. citizens into communists. Just trouble ahead. Or at least, no one will understand.

Thats why a faux cyrillic font would be recommended instead of just russian. i have no part in this, just translating. The us has moved on. we're not afraid of communism anymore.

Oh, Patrick, i think your location should be "stockholm, sweden + karelo-finnish ssr", just like your wehrmacht, since you have "sovietized" yourself. Nice uniform by the way. Is that a brezhnev ribbon bar?

TIA.
Eric, some things just don't translate. Even in English I'd be hard-pressed to explain what "Got Milk?" means. Do you have milk? Do you like milk? Are you holding a glass of milk? Are you drinking a glass of milk? I've got milk - you want some?

If you want some kind of Russian-American mutual understanding or link written in Russian, you could use "Back to the USSR" - the Beatles song. I don't have the cyrillic font and a native Russian speaker should verify, but I think it would be "Nazad v SSSR" See how some things just don't translate?

Thanks Paul. I was hoping you'd chime in.
I figured "got Soviet" would be a tough....what's it called, transliteration?
The General Secretary requested a Russian version so I thought I'd give it a try.
PS. got a request in to a German bud about Klessin.

Oh you guys don't know what some makeup, rouge and L'oreal can do to a man.

Sorry, but Karelo-Finnish SSR ceased to exist in 1956... The ribbon bar is Brezhnevish, yes.
