http://www.ww2incolor.com/german/De...Gefallene.html I admire your fervor but I think it was the Russians who basically beat the Germans. The casualty figures don't substantiate this but it's true nevertheless. The German army, once it started it's retreat from Russia, never stopped. 5.5 million Russian soldiers died while 10.7 million Russians soldiers bit the dust. It was a gross waste of human life. It was unbelievable that the Germans had the audacity to open a two front war. Stupid too.
