This Day in History Entry #71

Hitler and Stalin were for war geared
But a truce came ‘fore their armies neared
They each other despised
So most were not surprised
When they launched Operation Red Beard
Event: Nazi Germany launches Operation Barbarossa, an invasion of the Soviet Union and the largest military offensive in history
Year: 1941
