IMO the Germans didn't do any worse than the current
US Special Forces that were searching for Osama Bin Laden or Saddam
Hussein. Same situtation in both Afghanistan and Iraq with resistance.



The current British , Australian and German special forces didn't have any
luck finding Bin Laden either.


I would also have to agree that the terrain in Yugoslavia favored the
defenders as the Germans didn't control most of the countryside
anyway. However, the Germans did kill many partisans in constant
reprisal raids even though they were tied down in the country.



The Germans were losing the war against partisans all along. The
Nazis and their Allies suffered enormous casualties and were no
closer to winning when they bugged out.
