Hey guys, welcome to Barbarossa: Apocalypse in the East. I'm your host, Harry Stevens. I know I promised you guys the first main content episode, but I'm waiting for some of my books to ship and I'm fiddling around with structure for these episodes. So as a consolation, you get an episode on Soviet and German tanks. I cover the invention and early usages of the tank, German and Soviet tank development in the interwar era, and take a look at the main models of tanks. I also look at some peripheral factors. Hopefully next week I can get you the main content, which I'm sure you're craving, but if not, next week you'll get a similar episode like this, but about aircraft. If you have any comments, concerns, or questions, email me at apocalypseintheeast@gmail.com. Until then, I'll see you next week.
