"History in Images"[0] is a gold mine of photographs and research into some atrocities committed during WW2. I highly encourage you to view the pictures. The accompanying articles are extravagant, but many of the facts, anecdotes, and statistics are from somewhat credible sources ([1], [2]).

One quote, describing the Red Army occupation of East Berlin: "In one notorious instance, Red Army soldiers entered the maternity hospital at Haus Dehlem and raped pregnant women, women who had just given birth, and women in the process of giving birth."[3]
