June 22, 1941: three million German soldiers invaded the Soviet Union as part of Hitler's Operation "Barbarossa", aiming to destroy the Soviet Union and secure its land for the Third Reich. In the spirit of the classic study "First Day on the Somme", Craig Luther narrates the events of that fateful day on the Eastern Front, one of the pivotal days of World War Two.
This comprehensive study of operational history looks at the planning and deployment for Operation Barbarossa, the political relationship between the two future enemies in the immediate run-up to the German attack on the Soviet Union and, above all, the military events on the individual sections of the front on 22 June. A separate chapter deals with the operations and role of the German air force on that day. The reactions in Berlin and Moscow to the events of 22 June are also examined.
