Best Answer

Gumbinnen, Tannenberg & the Masurian Lakes set the standard fare for the Russians in the First World War in the East. Despite the effects of the Brusilov offensive against the Austro/Hungarian forces by the time of Riga, in which poison gas shells wer used for the first time, the Russians were defeated. Poor leadership & technological inferiority typify the Russian war effort. As for a turning point ? It's just one defeat after another by and large. I suspect you meant to type WW2 and therefore the answer is Stalingrad, but that's another story.
