I was reading an autobiographical book recently about second world war, written by a soviet officer, and I’m pretty sure that the guy who wrote it had ADHD. He described how he would be the most focused during chaos for example, or how he would notice things others wouldn’t. Or how he was a machine gunner but also a member of aviation modeling club, and a sniper. And the way he interacted with people.
I was reading through it and constantly thinking that he certainly was one of us.



I think it’s only available in Russian language https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Шумилин,_Александр_Ильич
