Re: Myths and Legends of the Eastern Front: Reassessing the Great Patriotic War [off topic]

I'm sorry to say it but this is another cliché.

German documents even from 1941 period were repeatedly stressing how skillfully RKKA fought.

The same about use ot tactical airpower. Pleas for fighter cover from German ground troops were not uncommon even in the summer of 1941. The fact that VVS never had the same assets as had USAAF of 1944-1945 period by no way means that Soviet use of air assets was backward
