Yes, but Rommels supplies had to be transported across the ocean, and britian had cracked the code and new when and where his supplies would be coming from. also, russia wasnt the superpower it was at the end of the war in 1941. the numbers where much more even at the beginning of the campaign in russia. i dont disagree with the arguements of miracle after miracle in the east. i agree totally. it was almost a numerical impossibility for the wermacht to fight as long as it did. Rommel just needs to be given his due is all
