      rahul halady The ones who won WWII along the Eastern Front were the brave men and women of the various peoples of the USSR. The Soviet tactics employed caused massive numbers of casualties. No Red Army soldier was unaware of this fact. But still they fought very bravely.
      Generals like Zhukov get a lot of credit as well, but Stalin nearly lost the war before it was started, first ignoring all the early intelligence warning that the Germans were massing forces on the border, and second, by hiding in his dacha, and sending no orders at all to his forces. He was so frightened and paranoid that when his closest advisers came to urge him to take command, Stalin thought they were coming to shoot him.

      John Cronin exactly. I’ve been saying for a long time now that even though the USSR still did win WW2, they won at a greater cost than should’ve been necessary. Stalin deserves credit for industrialising the Soviet Union so quickly, but he should’ve left the fighting and tactics to his generals, and heeded the intelligence he received. Had he acted differently, and sooner, the Soviet death toll might not have been so high, and the German surrender might have come earlier.
      Edit: Forgot to mention his purges, which had a hugely detrimental effect on the war effort, as they removed a lot of experienced and skilled people from the red army leadership.

    • @johncronin9540
      @johncronin9540 Před 4 lety +3

      veLOcity_17 Well, Stalin was very paranoid. You could be in greater danger if you were a loyal Communist, active in the Party or the Government, than if you were just an anonymous worker in some city. I say city, because many agricultural workers, especially in Ukraine, were deliberately starved to death. You were also in trouble if you were a high ranking officer in the Red Army, especially in the 1930’s.
      And Stalin was particularly cruel to those few Soviet POW’s who managed to survive the War. Many were liberated, only to be sent to Gulags for surrendering to the Germans, which Stalin considered to be treason, even though his refusal to listen to all kinds of warnings, whether from Britain or from the Red Army’s own military intelligence, which could observe the buildup of Wehrmacht forces just beyond the border region, in the months leading up to the German invasion in June, 1941. And that was all on Stalin. His generals pleaded with him to allow the bulk of the Red Army to pull back from the border, to more defendable positions several miles to the rear. The Soviet Air Force was largely destroyed on the ground at the start of the invasion.
