  • How does Germany having the Wehrmacht and still losing suggest?

    The German Wehrmacht (WW2 German armed forces) were experienced and highly dominant for large parts of the war eg the elite panzer (armoured) regiments, use of Blitzkrieg, infiltration tactics. The fact they still lost means other factors must've been more important
