Or read Staligrad by Ballentine Press (I think) says the same thing.
There is testimoney from German soldiers transferred from the Russian Front to the Western Front about how easy and civilized the fighting was. On the Eastern front- weather Russian or German - if you were captured you would most likely be killed or die slowly in a labor camp. On the Western front both sides knew that if they were captured they had a good chance of life in a cozy camp. And even the fighting was not as brutal. Fire fights tended to die down past 5PM- when the officers on both sides wanted to relax. On the Western front numerous truces were called to gather wounded and dead. That almost never happened on the Eastern front because neither Stalin or Hitler cared about the dead or wounded.
To this day one can find bones of American dead on our Cival War battlefields (more Americans died in 1861- 1865 than in all our wars combined). I understand that they are still finding Russian dead all over your land and the Germans routinely discover Wermacht dead all over Germany.
