  • It was big, it was cold, and there were a bunch of guys named Ivan shooting at you.
  • It was not feared by the Germans until the Russians start fighting back and until that point the Germans had not come up against much opposition.but when Russia fought,they fought with the same determination as the Germans fought with.the Germans fought with cruelty and savagery.but when they seen russia doing to them what they had been doing to the rest of Europe they got scared.if Hitler left his military operations alone and let his generals get on with there job without his interferance,the Russian campaign would not have continued.it was a pointless campaign that caused millions of lives.
  • At least early in the war the German troops were ill equipped for the Russian winter, supply lines were stretched and on top of this the eastern front saw the majority of the fighting in Europe in ww2. it is estimated that 80% of all German casualties occured in the east.
