Noob Question - How do I get better?

I am a noob.
I bought this game a couple of weeks ago and have played the tutorial and 8 or 9 of the on-the-road-to-XX scenarios.
I think I have figured out that I won't get any better playing the Soviets and watching the AI's strategies/tactics.
So I was wondering what's a good way of getting better? Should I just crank up the difficulty level; or are there particular clear (noob-oriented) AARs out there; or scour the rule book for optimizations that I am just not using yet?
I am guessing that I am still too nooby for a human opponent. My opponent might actually resent the time spent demonstrating how bad I was, unless the WitE community is peculiarly tolerant.
Thanks for any advice.
Cheers

Up the AI some, then read up on the AAR's.
Then play a game is Russian as that side is easyer then GHC.
I played vs AI and read AAR's for 2 months before playing my first human vs human 41-45 game.
The game is very complex more so then people think.
Unit morale is the most important stat by a long shot.

Industry, supply and air forces more important

Thanks Sapper and Pelton.
If I could ask a follow-up question: when you that airforces are very important, do you mean the setting of air-doctrine with the air-doctrine screen is important or do you mean that micro-managing the individual missions is very important?
I found the manual quite unhelpful when it came to telling me how reliably the PC could be left to manage my air orders.
Thanks again.
Cheers
