Presentation: Battle of Seelow Heights

It is apparent that this was a must win battle for the Russian army against the Germans.  It is interesting to note that although Russia suffered the heaviest casualty loss of 33,000 as compared to Germany, which suffered only 12,000 casualties, they were able to claim a victory.

Yes, the number difference I also found interesting, but I think that the numbers lost should be looked at in percentage values from the total number of troops in the army so that it is far more relative.
