Purges of the Red Army (1 ottob 1940 anni – 1 feb 1942 anni)
Descrizione:
The purge of the Red Army resulted in a number of generals being expelled from the party and executed. This mainly affected higher-ups, especially in the Navy. This removed nearly 8% of the armed forces, and led to the German invasion of the USSR (as Hitler believed that the purge would make the forces incapable of resisting).
