OPERATION BARBAROSSA  ﻿   In the summer of 1941, Hitler made a decision which would change the outcome of WWII (and thus, changed the course of world history). He invaded the massive Soviet Union in a top secret attack known as 'Operation Barbarossa' (see map below).

Not only did this violate the Non-Aggression Pact that he had previously signed with Stalin, but it was also a massive risk, due to the sheer enormity of the USSR. Why would he take such a risk? What did he hope to gain from this invasion? What would the results of Operation Barbarossa be? That's exactly what you and your classmates will find out in this activity! I've tracked down numerous articles about everything that happened in Operation Barbarossa, and I've divided them up amongst you all. Here are the steps for today's lesson: >> COHEN, SAMANTHA E >> COWART, ZACHARY A >> HAMBERGER, CLAYTON M >> JOHNER, SHANE M >> KELLEHER, JAMES M >> KEPP, TIMOTHY >> KING, KYLE A >> LAUGHTON, CASSANDRA >> RUTH, MALEENA E
