"Stopped on the way of modernization by the Stalinist purges,
demoralized by the unexpected resistance of the Finnish Army during the
winter war, the Red Army carries out its revolution in the contact of
the Wehrmacht set out to conquer the USSR.

Pragmatics, resuming the innovative developed concepts pre-war year (as
the operational art and the in-depth operations, the parachutists, the
specialized armored cars, the snipers, the multiple rocket launchers),
the Soviet citizens are going to succeed in forging, in the course of
the months, a formidable machine of war, modern, well equipped and with
a surprising maneuverability.

Studying alternately the various branches of the Red Army (Infantry,
Artillery, Cavalry, VDV, marines, Spetsnaz, NKVD), its generals, its
armaments and its equipments, Vincent Bernard delivers a complete work
on subject, essential to every enthusiast of the Second World War."
