I don't usually initiate WWII questions, but have the third of three to post here. By the end of the second week of June 1941 it was clear the Germans were massing for an attack very soon. With a PoD of 15 June what actions can the Red Army take to mitigate and better handle the impending attack?
I'm not well versed in these eastern front campaigns. Would there be any utility in the following?
Have everyone out of the barracks & tents & in battle positions, with ammunition distributed, radio communications set up, security units searching for enemy infiltrators/commandos, HQ staffs reviewing the actual war plans.
Air units dispersed to auxiliary fields, & antiaircraft defenses ready & alert.
Any planned counter strikes ready.
A week is not enough to accelerate things like reservists mobilization, training, redistribution of entire armies or many corps. Or correct weapons deficiencies, or build fortifications. tho I can say from experience a lot of trenches, minefields, obstacles, and bunkers can be set up in a week.
