The Russian Front - Episode 4: The Battles for Berlin | History Documentary Watch the first episode of 'The Russian Front' here:    • The Russian Front | Episode 1: Barbarossa ...   In this episode: On April 16th, 1945, the final assault on Adolf Hitler and the Third Reich began as Soviet Red Army forces attacked towards Berlin from the east. The Battle of Berlin was a monumental battle between two adversaries who despised one another. For the Russians who had endured the horrific suffering and loss of lives in defending their nation against the Nazi invasion, the opportunity for vengeance seemed as if fate was on their side. For the German civilians who remained in Berlin, the approach of the Red Army invoked terror. When the city was taken on May 2,1945, over 300,000 Berliners and 80,000 Red Army soldiers lay dead amongst the ruins. This episode covers the final phase of the war, as the mighty Red Army rolled back the tide of German conquests and surged on the gates of Berlin, the very heart of Nazi Germany. The series: The Russian Front chronicles the brutal clash between Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union, from Hitler’s invasion on 22 June 1941 to the Red Army’s assault on Berlin in April 1945. More soldiers died on the Eastern Front than in all other theatres of World War II combined. This deadly conflict began with swift Nazi victories but became Hitler’s downfall. Key battles like Stalingrad — where over a million Soviet defenders fell — and the tank clash at Kursk with 1 million men and 2,700 tanks turned the tide against Germany. Campaign by campaign, battle by battle, this gripping series uses rare archive footage, expert commentary from Professor John Erickson (Road to Stalingrad, Road to Berlin), graphics, and maps to reveal the full story: a savage war of heroism, sacrifice, and unimaginable hardship, fought to the death by ordinary soldiers on both sides. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Subscribe to Free Documentary - History Channel for free: https://bit.ly/2FjRPgV Facebook: https://bit.ly/2QfRxbG Twitter: https://bit.ly/2QlwRiI ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ #FreeDocumentary #Documentary #History ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Free Documentary - History is dedicated to bringing high-class documentaries to you on YouTube for free.
