"The launch of Operation Typhoon heralded the opening of one of the biggest German
offensives of World War II. Indeed it is surpassed in scale only by the German operations
to invade France and the Low Countries in May 1940 (Case Yellow) and the Soviet Union
itself in June 1941 (Operation Barbarossa). Although the fighting on the Eastern Front
is arguably best known for Hitler's 1942 offensive to reach and conquer the oil fields
of southern Russia (Case Blue), culminating in the battle for Stalingrad, Army Group
South's 1942 summer offensive involved only half the number of German troops employed
for Operation Typhoon"--
