On June 22, 1941, the German Army poured across the borders of the Soviet Union, initiating nearly 4 years of the most savage and brutal warfare humanity ever experienced. Three Army Groups penetrated Russia on a front extending from the Baltic coast to the Black Sea. One and a half million soldiers of the Wehrmacht obeyed the Fuehrer's directive to destroy the Red Army and the Soviet Union.

"Hold fast, men!" yelled the Captain. "Drive these German scum back to their stinking pits!" The German Army had attacked Brest-Litovsk. He leaned over the low wall he was hiding behind, fired a shot from his Mosin-Nagant towards the enemy and smiled when a enemy twisted and fell. A shout came from the right of him. "Panther!" Then an explosion. That was the last thing he heard.

Alex swore. He dropped prone and fired his PTRS-41 at the Panther.
