He nearly got one, but heroic defence by the massive Soviet armies slowed the Nazi advance. It was done by the simple private soldier, \"Ivan\" as the Germans called him. Brave, solid, and loyal, these soldiers endured dreadful battle conditions. Their equipment was unsophisticated but functional, much like the troops themselves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bitter fighting in Finland had taught some hard lessons to the Red Army where thousands of their men fell victim to frostbite.
