Armageddon's video: The Road to Berlin: Setting the Stage to the Final Battle of the War

We'll review the situation of the Wehrmacht and the Red Army in 1945. We'll have an overview of the Soviet strategic operations that ended up on the Oder, at the gates of Berlin. We'll see how the German Command prepared the last line of defense, and how the Soviet Command prepared its final assault. In the process, we'll debunk several myths and legends.
