Comments by "Mitch Richards" (@mitchrichards1532) on "Your Perception of the WW2 Eastern Front is Wrong" video.
The Axis on the Eastern front wasn't beaten by superior numbers? Ok, the Red Army lost 9 million dead and 18 million (est) wounded, no? That's 27 million casualties and they still had a strength of about 11 million men in 1945. They also lost 83,500 tanks and 13,000 self propelled guns in the war but still had some 12,000 in Germany in 1945. Seems they did have a huge strength advantage, no?

@WhenDoesTheVideoActuallyStart Krivosheev's book shows that the Soviets raised 7 million additional men by the end of 1941 and ended December with a frontline strength over 4 million. The Germans/Axis outnumbered them in the first few weeks in the Western military districts, but thats it. After that, the Soviets had a numerical advantage, small at first, then it grew to very high proportions.
