The military situations were practically equal to both sides before the foreign intervention. However‚ after Germany‚ Italy‚ and USSR intervened the situation changed dramatically.

Nazi Germany’s apparent political and military ally in Europe was Italy. Since 1925‚ Italian had been controlled by an autocrat leadership under Benito Mussolini. Italian fascism was very much the older brother of Nazism‚ a fact Hitler himself admitted. All of their intellectual resemblance‚ the connection between Hitler and Mussolini was rough and complex.

Bacon was born in Dublin‚ to parents of British descent. Captain Anthony Edward Mortimer Bacon‚ his father‚ was a veteran of the
