Of course, that number (I think the Soviet > Union lost 25 million people roughly) also includes a very large number of > non-military personnel. Don't forget the Soviet Union would send in a battalion of men with maybe 2 dozen pistols, a dozen rifles, and 1 or 2 tanks ( if the battalion was lucky ) because they had a bad weapon shortage ( this almost lost them the war ), the rest of the men were expected to pick up the weapons of there fallen comrades and captured enemy weapons. Tactics like this, lead to mass combat fatalities. If I remember right, the Soviet Union and Germany did not sign the Geneva Convention regarding each others solders, so prisoners were treated worse than other wise and many died for this reason alone.
