'''"Vlad"''' was the name given to a [[Mongolia]]n [[soldier]] in the [[Red Army]] during the [[World War II|Second World War]]. He did not [[Speech|speak]] much and his real name was unknown, so his comrades simply called him "Vlad". | '''"Vlad"''' was the name given to a [[Mongolia]]n [[soldier]] in the [[Red Army]] during the [[World War II|Second World War]].

Vlad fought under [[Captain]] [[Yazov]]'s command during the [[Soviet Union|Soviets]]' bid to [[Battle of Berlin|capture]] the [[Germany|German]] [[capital city]] of [[Berlin]]. On [[25 April]] [[1945]], he and his team fought through the contested [[street]]s and discovered seven [[Death|dead]] [[Tibet]]ans in German [[uniform]]s in a basement. When the others mistook them for [[China|Chinese]] or [[Japan]]ese troops, Vlad made a rare case of speaking out and informed them they were "men of Tibet".
