As we all know, Hitler invaded the USSR on June 22, 1941. However, I don't know how many know this, but the scheduled date of the was some 5 or 6 weeks earlier, in middle to late May. However, the invasion was pushed back because Hitler had to help his somewhat incompetent ally in SE Europe. What if Hitler had invaded as planned? As we know, Hitler stopped just outside of Moscow, largely due to the fact that winter was setting in. What if Hitler had gotten those extra five or six weeks before winter? It is entirely feasible he could have captured Moscow, and then what? Discuss.
