About Operation Barbarossa
On June 22, 1941, more than 3 million German and Axis troops invaded the Soviet Union along an 1,800-mile-long front, launching Operation Barbarossa. It was Germany’s largest invasion force of the war, representing some 80 percent of the Wehrmacht/German armed forces, and one of the most powerful invasion forces in history. (Source: History.com)
