[quote="[JuGGeRnAuT]":799f2]Yeah the beginning of the war, thats why the German were way into Russian territory, that couldnt have taken more than a few days right?[/quote:799f2]

most hostorians consider everything from the beginning of the war to the end of 1942 "ealry war"

note that the Americans didn't really start kicking ass until 1943.
Why?
because we needed to get everything switched over to war production, same with the Soviets.
