The year is 1941. Germany has defeated Poland, Denmark, Norway, and France with ease. Now the Führer desires more 'Lebensraum' and attacks the Soviet Union on June 22, 1941 under the code name Operation Barbarossa. He thinks the Soviets will fold like a house of cards. Their officer cadre had been massacred by Stalin, training was poor, and morale low. The Blitzkrieg catches the Soviets by surprise and they lose over 1.75 million men in the first two months alone. The Germans are unstoppable, their Panzers pushing to the very gates of Moscow. But the winter comes and the Soviets begin to counterattack. THE BEAR AWAKENS!
