Does anybody know how many Soviets actually fought in the Red Army during World War 2? I mean, numbers for soldiers in the Wehrmacht, US Army, Bristih Army, French Army and Japanese Army can be found but I have never seen any numbers saying just how many men and women fought in the Red Army during World War 2.
