Stalin's method: masses of Soviet KIA's collected by the Germans during the battles near Moscow. With poor leadership, low motivation, and woeful training, the Soviet army's "tactical solution" was the massed infantry assault ala WW1. The result was predictable given the Germans' joint arms approach including heavy artillery and mortar fires aimed at the masses. Leadership, World War I, Warfare, Soviet Army

Georgy Zhukov. "Father" of the Soviet victory - a mastermind behind the largest battles of WW2: Moscow, Stalingrad, Berlin... to name a few. Without a doubt, a military genius: he never lost a battle.  But also known by his soldiers as a “Butcher”, for disregarding causalities and winning at any cost. Harbin, Russian Red

07 Jan 42: The Soviet Army has driven the Germans far enough back that Moscow is no longer under threat, ending the 98-day Battle of Moscow and marking a major turning point in the war in the east. For a time, Moscow seemed to have been so close to falling to the Germans that Stalin's armored train was ready at the station to carry him east to safety. But the Soviets were aided in their efforts by extreme cold and poor weather, which minimized the Luftwaffe's operations. #WWII #History
