Can someone please recommend me some reading or watching that isn't entirely infused with cold war rancor towards the USSR?

I had an idea for a movie the other day. A parody of how Americans view their actions in WWII, and how that view of the war has infected other nations through movies.

All the historic allied eccentrics (Jack Churchill, Digby Tatham-Warter, Audie Murphy, e.t.c) get put together on a supertroop tasked with killing higher-ups in the Nazi regime. As a recurring gag, whenever there needs to be bodies between the protagonists and certain doom, its The Soviets.
