How many German soldiers died during World War 2? What was the average time to live? What were the different loss ratio of the branches, like the Army, Navy, Air Force and Waffen SS? How did the losses change over the years? How many losses per month? Was there a difference in regards to age? Did the region of origin have an influence? How many men did on the Ostfront per day? These and some other questions will be answered in this video.
