Which is demonstrably true. If, indeed, you have read the post 1989 works by Glantz and others.
Seriously?
I mean, seriously?
ROTFL!
It is well understood, indeed, it was well understood even a couple of decades before Glantz started his publication of work based on the Soviet archives, that the Germans never. ever. had. a. clew. of the actual Soviet numbers. Not before Barbarossa and not at any stage during it.
Heck, the apologist Generals writing for the US at the end of the war admitted as much themselves.

You know I actually asked you a question about how the Soviets lied in the Second World War, and I also asked you to explain your earlier remark about how Lend Lease allowed the Soviet to build armaments as unlike Britain they weren't capable of producing anything else by themselves. I also asked you for a comparison of Lend Lease supplies that Britain and the Soviet Union received from the United States. But you have dodged those question. How about you answer them.
Also you keep quoting "authors" to others and I to validate your argument. Do you believe that everyone else on here is not a well read as you? You would be surprised about how many well educated members we have on this board.

And are you one of those scholars?

When Titans Clashed is a good overview, you might like to start there. You evidently wouldn't believe anything I might tell you anyway, so go and read for yourself.

Well if I did or did not I wouldn't be coming on here bragging about it.
