About this video

Renowned military historian Colonel (Ret.) David M. Glantz delivers a lecture at the US Army Heritage and Education Center, dismantling long-standing Cold War myths about the Eastern Front. Glantz challenges German-centric narratives that attribute the Soviet victory solely to severe weather, Hitler's personal strategic failures, or the sheer size of the Soviet population. Instead, he provides an archive-backed analysis of the Red Army's operational art, professionalization, and decisive role in defeating the Wehrmacht.
