120 divisions thrown at Russia. We faced 80. AND the Japs. But 200 divisions thrown our way?? ouch!!
A bomb would have won is the war against them anyway, but MASSIVE casualties, maybe 1 or 2 million American dead?
Boy was Hitler a dope. Could have had all of western Europe and left well enough alone.
But being as sick sadistic pig makes you do silly things, like get stuck in Russia in the winter

“We faced 80.”
The vast majority of which were 2nd or 2rd tier conscript or replacement units (Such as Russian “Hiwi” battalions), that only had six Inf battalions, instead of the nine Inf. battalions that units on the Eastern Front had. (1944 reorg.)
