Beyond Barbarossa: The Eastern Front of World War 2

Summer 1944 on the Eastern Front, north and south

23 min25 augusti 2025

In summer 1944, "the Red Army’s seemingly unstoppable streamroller took Stanislav in the Carpathian foothills, Bialystok in northern Poland, Dvinsk in Latvia and the Siauliai (also spelt Shaulyai) rail junction between Riga and East Prussia.” — Anthony Tucker-Jones.

Even so, the steamroller suffered ferocious mauling.
