Pegasus 1/72 WWII Russian Infantry in Summer Dress
by
Pegasus
SKU: PGH-7268
The performance of the Red Army during World War II was one of contrasts. They saw little action during their occupation of Poland in alliance with Nazi Germany, but suffered humiliation at the hands of the tiny Finnish army when they tried to invade that country too. Any remedies put in place as a result were far too little and far too late to avoid the catastrophe at the hands of the German invaders in 1941, when losses quickly ran into millions. However lessons were slowly learnt and in time losses were made good from the country’s vast resources, and just four years later the Red Army had the resources and experience to penetrate and destroy the Third Reich.
