In this episode of The Soviet Victory Over Nazi Germany Explained, Lucas and Luna explore the crucial logistics behind the Red Army's advance from Stalingrad to Berlin. Focusing on Lend-Lease aid from the United States and Britain, they discuss the Arctic convoys that braved U-boats and winter storms to deliver Studebaker trucks, Spam, and raw materials to Murmansk. They examine how these supplies—often downplayed in Soviet historiography—gave the Red Army mobility and firepower, enabling deep operations like Bagration. The episode also touches on the Persian Corridor and Alaska-Siberia route, and the role of Soviet officials like Anastas Mikoyan in managing aid. #LendLease #ArcticConvoys #Studebaker #RedArmy #AnastasMikoyan #Murmansk #PersianCorridor #AlaskaSiberiaRoute #WWII #EasternFront #SovietUnion #Stalin #Bagration #History #FexingoHistory #Podcast #WW2Logistics #SovietVictory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
