Hypothetical Combat Slurs

Suppose the U.S. and the Soviet Union had actually fought in a World War III. Given the American culture's propensity for slang, stereotyping, and racial profiling, what slur or derogatory comment do you think American troops would have called the Soviet troops they would have fought? Also, what do you think the etymology of the names might have been?
 
Ivans,
Russkies,
Commies,
Bolshies,
Beeters (sort of like "krauts" but for a common Russian vegetable)
"Skis" - based on the common end of many Russian sounding names.
 
Maybe "Witches", from the -ovich ending... could also easily be rendered as bitches. -ski is more of a polish thing.

True, but I didn't want to go to the "bitches" part...It already has a nice derogatory meaning in English
