You don’t believe the average German soldier knew the Eastern Front was a complete mess, that he faced overwhelming odds in the west,,, because he didn’t listen to shortwave?
Ever been a grunt?
I was referring to this part of the post:
“and you also knew you faced overwhelming odds in the west.”
The information about the Western Front was controlled, though everyone knew about the Eastern Front for months before.
It helps to read the entire sentence, yes, I know; happened to me lots of times that I did not read everything that was being responded to.
