Total War 1943/44

Description

On 18 February 1943, Joseph Goebbels made his notorious "Total War" speech about being "faithful to the last" at the Berlin Sportpalast. But the Reich's defeat in Stalingrad a few weeks earlier shook the faith of the Germans in the "final battle", which saw Germany crumbling more and more every day. Hitler's armies had sounded the retreat, and after the landing of the Allies on 8 June 1944, the German defeat was now only a matter of time. Yet, many Germans remained staunched supporters of their Führer.
