Historical Background

The figures included in the set accurately depict the appearance of Soviet infantry at the beginning of the Great Patriotic War—soldiers who fought from the outbreak of conflict with Germany in June 1941 through many months of heavy fighting. Red Army infantry was the most numerous branch of the Soviet land forces, taking part in military operations on all fronts, such as the famous Battle of Moscow and defensive battles in Ukraine.
