Germany didn't have anything while then, Russia did.
Following von Poop's prompt, and in order to commemorate my 4,000 post here:

Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha!

Tell us another joke!

Are you really saying "Almost every German in Russia died because of Starvation or froze to death"?

I can't believe this! You are overlooking those that died by traffic accident, hear attacks, natural causes, or fright by finding the Bogeyman under their beds!

Oooooooh, I didn't know the Germans had advanced 60km into Russia and then got hit by Winter! You learn something new every day!

Exactly, that's how Adolf got his nomination for the Righteous Among the Nations, for according to his citation "Providing free transportation to all Jews in Europe back and forth, sabotaging the Nazi war effort at the same time, all at great personal risk".

That's right too, he instead of invading before Winter he should have invading during winter, it's much more fun, they could have thrown snowballs to the Russians!
