Answer The military mistake that they both had in common was they tried to conquer Russia. Both did not realize the magnitude of this objective. Russia is a vast area and the troops could not live off of the land. So the logisticallines were extremely long. Most accounts say the Russian winter was the main obstacle. However, when Napoleon started out his campaign, the summer contributed to the loss of many of his horses.

Why was the bombing of London seen as both strategic and tactical error?

The bombing of London was both a strategic and tactical error because it served no military purpose. It achieved no military advantage as military bases, troops and equipment were located elsewhere. It didn't prevent Great Britain from sending more supplies and troops to the front. It failed to lower the moral of the population. Its main achievement was as propaganda press releases to the German population and to spur the British Government in to creating larger strikes themselves on German targets

What was Hitler's big mistake at the Battle of Stalingrad?

The biggest error Hitler made was to try and hold on to the gains made during the battle for Stalingrad . He should have shortened his lines in the hopes that by doing so he could once again regain the initiative by having stronger forces at his disposal . The loss of mobile warfare while fighting in the streets of Stalingrad caused the loss of the entire Sixth Army under von Paulus along with many Romanian and Hungarian military assets . Hitler had made many mistakes leading up to the loss of Stalingrad by following his political agenda and his pursuit of the oil in the Caucasus .
