      Hitler also used the largest invasion force in history (3.8 million troops, vs 3 million for the Nazi invasion of France or 2 million for the allied invasion France). And still failed so badly he lost the entire war.

      Though it is hard to compare them because the contexts are so different. Russia isn’t as motivated this time as USSR was in the 1940s.
