History says Russia gutted the German military

---

My history says the Russian winter for which the Germans were underprepared defeated them.

You should read The Great Patriotic War as told by Russian historians. True winter was a factor in the defeat in front of Moscow but there were other factors as well. All in all Russia took the brunt of German fighting so that hardly anything was left for Germany to defend itself later after D-Day.
