Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Operation Barbarossa started the war on the eastern front, the USSR did not fight on any other front, I can only say overall death toll on Eastern front, any numbers are suspect that attemp to define too closely differences since all Eastern front was either begun by Operation Barbarossa or as response to Operation Barbarossa!.
USSR about 10 million men and more civilians!.
Germany about 4 million
Poland 400-600 thousand men counting resistance fighters and allies!. and about 5!.5 million civiliansWww@QuestionHome@Com
