Soviet Winter Infantry
When the German army crashed in to Russia in 1941, Hitler was confident of a short and sharp campaign, which he nearly received. However, the heroic defence by the massive soviet armies slowed the Nazi advance. This was done by several brave and loyal soldiers, even though their equipmet was unsophisticated, it was functional, much like the troops themselves and they last a long time againts the Germans.
The Red Army had learnt some hard lessons during the bitter fighting in Finals where thousands of men fell victim to frostbite. The cold weather kit later issued was much warmer and comfortable than before. These tough men may have had to lie for hours in the snow before making the attacks.
