Setting the Scene World War II was fought on a larger scale and in more places than any other conflict in history. It was also more costly in terms of human life than any previous war. Civilians, as well as soldiers,
were targets. In 1941, a reporter visited a Russian town that had been home to 10,000 people before the German invasion. The reporter found a lone survivor: "[She was] a blind old woman who had
gone insane. I saw her wandering barefooted around the village, carrying a few dirty rags, a
rusty pail, and a tattered sheepskin.” From 1939 until mid-1942, the Axis ran up a
string of successes. The conquerors blasted villages and towns and divided up the spoils.
Then the Allies won some key victories. Slowly, the tide began to turn.
