Re: Soviet Hurricanes - where, when, ...?

I see. The battle of Moscow started on June 22, 1941, am I right???


Yes you are "right" - good strategy thinking, :-)

"The Great Pariotic War" for many, many years had began, in many official and Soviet time publications of Soviet's counter-attack from Moscow - 5 XII 1941. Next steps was Stalingarad, the last one Berlin.

There were not so many information about earlier period and terrible own losses ect. So I think, that some Russian still belive in this version of WW II on Eastern Front.
I hope you do not belive, that Battle of Moscow had began on 5 XII 1941, :-)

PS
In fact one of main strategy/target for Hitler in 1941 was Moscow, next was Leningrad. So you are right, when you say, that great battle for (not of) Moscow + Leningrad had began on 22 VI 1941.
