What Russians Did to Captured MG42 Gunners
The Eastern Front was the hardest and most devastating front of the Second World War. Out of roughly 80 million lives lost in the entire conflict, nearly 30 million fell there, most of them civilians. This video explains how the fighting turned into a war of complete destruction, why the early Soviet chaos gave Germany its first victories, how the MG-42 changed the battlefield, and what happened to the soldiers who survived long enough to see the war turn against them.
