i remember watching a program on the discovery channel which said the russians faced 10 german divisions to every 1 faced by the allies during WWII.

Yeah scale, ferocity and sheers numbers of the fighting on Eastern front not to mention the weather conditions is quite mind boggling

It's not like the Russians had a lack of troops though.

all the same, it took some doing stopping those german panzer divisions once they got rolling, they went through western europe like a dose of salts.
even with all the manpower the russians had (not to mention bravery) it still took them nearly a 1000 miles and a severe winter to stop them

The Russians may have had manpower but they were short on equipment though - one gun and ammunition between two soldiers

The Germans weren't easy to stop that's for sure. But I think that people underestimate how big of a military power Russia actually was. It was a very ambitious effort to conquer Russia, even for Germany.

Can you imagine how the world would be if Hitler hadn't attacked Russia ? If most of those German divisions were deployed in western Europe :wwww
