The Storm Of War: A History Of Nazis!
In an extract from his new book, Roberts claims that Hitler"s troops were fatally ill equipped for the 1941 invasion on Russia. The mistake that the German commissariat made was that they did not organize enough woolen hats, gloves, long johns and overcoats for use in War. Two years of clothes rationing meant that there was little to give.
He also blames dictator Adolf Hitler for that defeat, saying the Nazi leader failed to take care of his troops' needs. He was more proud of his hardiness in the cold, boasting how "having to change into long trousers was always a misery to me."
Prior to Operation Barbarossa, the Nazis were not so certain that their invasion on Russia, which began on June 22, 1941, would take place in a very cold winter. When it came to proper clothing in a winter campaign in one of the world"s coldest countries, there was simply not enough, and what was provided was often not warm enough either. The horrific results of the lack of warm clothing were truly disgusting.
Thousands and thousands of soldiers lost their limbs; thousands and thousands had their ears, their noses, their fingers and their sexual organs ripped off by the frost. Many had lost their hair… Many had lost their eyelids. Singed by the cold, the eyelid drops off like a piece of dead skin…
Hitler believed the campaign would be over in three months – by late September 1941 – before the weather turned.
