The Petsamo-kirkenes Operation: Soviet Breakthrough And Pursuit In The Arctic, October 1944 (leavenworth Papers 17)
E-Book Overview
The Petsamo-Kirkenes Operation: Soviet Breakthrough and Pursuit in the Arctic, October 1944, represents a seminal contribution to a field of historical research that has not been thoroughly explored by our Armys doctrinal community. This campaign and others, such as the defense of the Murmansk axis in 1941, are virtually unknown in the West in spite of their profound impact on the strategic outcome of the Soviet-German war on the Eastern Front. This oversight is not surprising when one considers that our Armys sole combat experience in arctic-type terrain over the last fifty years was the Aleutian campaign of 1942.
