4/15-WHICH RUSSIAN ARMY DO YOU COMMAND, PRESIDENT PUTIN; 1941 OR 1943?

It may sound strange, but Sara and Barry wonder whether Vladimir Putin is aware of a very auspicious page in Russian history.  If you were a German invader of the Soviet Union in 1941, you literally laughed at the pitiful “Red Army” and how easy those troops were to push aside in Hitler’s bold sweep toward Moscow.  After the Soviet victory at Stalingrad in January, 1943, however, you would have felt the Russian Army was the most formidable force in military history.  Somebody should warn Putin, the Russians are unbeatable when motivated utterly inept when not.  In the early going, Russian troops were defecting by the MILLIONS to help Germany defeat Communism.  Once word of German atrocities against Soviet civilians got spread, the Russians got highly motivated.  Question:  Are Ukrainians going to inspire sufficient Russian hatred to “bring back 1943”?
