How far is the common perception of Red Army heroism and sacrifice borne out by historical reality? And what was the daily experience of the individual soldier caught up in this immense and ruthless conflict?

The whole range of military experience is portrayed here, from recruitment and the rigors of training to transport, marching and the ordeal of combat.
