Renowned War Historian and Author Anthony Beevor recounts the race by Russian troops, on Stalin’s orders to reach Berlin before the American in 1945. A race the German civilian population prayed the Russians would not win.

A period where soldiers were sacrificed at the whim of their leaders, along with thousands of German civilians, including children.
