Zapp Branigan: "I sent wave after wave of my own men at them"

It's easily understandable why a strategy that boils down to zerg rushing with poor or missing equipment would result in heavy losses.

It is also understandable why a country that subscribes to an ideology that places very little value on the individual and has a large population would pick such a strategy.

Believing that such a strategy is a morally correct thing is another matter entirely.

What this chart does show is the discrepancy between the different war conducts. Namely that the Ostfront was a horrific meat grinder where life had no value, and there was no point in taking prisoners.
