Generals fighting in East Front

Post by 79seconds » 08 Jan 2022 08:14

Am trying to collect a namelist of the generals/Admirals of minor Axis nations that fought in East Front.

Say Romanian/Hungarian/Finnish/Bulgarian/Croatian/Czechoslovakian etc.

If anyone can support with some information that would be very appreciated. :thumbsup:
