If this is suppose to be a landmark event during the Indian independence movement, shouldn't there be an actual article about the incident, or at least biography articles on Rand and Ayerst, instead of linking to a 1979 film about the incident (which essentially only has references pertaining to the film, not the incident itself)? It would be like linking to the recent film Valkyrie instead of the 20 July plot article. Such films are essentially historical reenactments based on historical events, which most often are not totally 100 percent historically accurate and representative of the events they are respectively depicting.

Events of completely different historical significance combined together in this sentence which contradicts The criteria for inclusion in the selected anniversaries queue (2. The event needs to be of moderate to great historical significance (relative to the other historical events that occurred on the same day of the year).
Please change it to something like this: Over 4.5 million Axis troops began their invasion of the Soviet Union and the Soviet Union de-facto joined Allies despite its controversial role in the begining of the World War II. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.240.128.75 ( talk) 19:03, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
