Comments by "Rudolf S" (@rudolfs3003) on "German News 1944" video.
andrew chambers Hitler made his fatal blunder to have invaded the Soviet Union in 1941. He dreamed to crush it just in 2 months and thereafter finish Great Britain off in the next year. But the USSR was too hard a nut for Germany and her allies. After the initial shock Russians brought themselves together and crushed Wehrmacht in the Battle for Moscow (December,1941), the Stalingrad Battle (November, 1942) and the Kursk Battle (July, 1943). As Winston Churchill said at the beginning of 1944 , the Red Army had broken a backbone of Nazi armed forces. He was aware that 75% of the overall German strength in aircraft, tanks, guns, soldiers and officers were destroyed and found their graves in the Eastern Front. By 1944 Wehrmacht and Luftwaffe were already a bleak shadow of their former power, when Nazis occupied the whole of continental Europe and Northern Africa.
