		The air war on the Eastern front during WWII was the largest and longest in history but also one of the least written about.
		The conflict history is told chronologically along the three basic fronts (Northern, Central, Southern) of the German invasion, so it does hop around a good bit (that's a lot of ground to cover!!).
		Most of the histories on this front have covered the land war, with its epic tank battles and severe human suffering, while only making scant mention of the battle in the air.

		The problem with many older works on the Eastern front is that the Soviet side of the story has not been available.
		So it was often the case that Eastern front military history was written based on the German historical records (which the Allies seized at the end of the war and made publically available) or German memoirs.
		To put the collosal scale of the Eastern Front in perspective, these figures (both total casualties and deaths) are roughly one third the amount the US suffered in all of WWII in about four years of fighting.
