German ranks

[PanzerBob]

"Westerners- being very haughty , effeminate, and cowardly intensely dislike fighting in the rain or mist or in the dark. They cannot conceive night to be a proper time for battle though it is excellent for dancing. In these weaknesses lie our great opportunity."

This falls into the old adege that "The First Casuality of War is the Truth".

The Allies had similar prejudices of their "Jap" enemies which the front line soliders soon learnt were not true, and those who didn't, did so at their own peril.

The same was true of the German beliefs of the Russian and even American soldiers.

All part of the psychology of warfare, a part of war that if one forgets like logistics, one may find his army in deep kimchi.
