Hitler’s planning and conduct of the campaigns against Great Britain and the USSR.

Evaluate Hitler’s planning and conduct of the campaigns against Great Britain and the USSR. As in Essay 1, give some thought to his strategic vision. What did he hope to accomplish? Where and why did he fail? Most important, what led him to open a “second front” against the USSR with Britain still active in the West? Review the relative strengths of the forces engaged in each campaign as well as their leadership.
