For me, the scariest thing about war is when you don't know when someone is aiming at you.

[@jamiestewart48]

I always thought along similar lines, and it holds true here. Now, though, it's mortars. We'd be driving along a road in a HMMVW or out on foot patrol and you'd feel a dull thump in the middle of your chest and hair on your arms standing up. Mortars. If it's closer than you'd like but not close enough to kill or maim then it's a feeling like you've got Wolverine's metal skeleton and every single bone is being battered by a sledgehammer to make them vibrate, with nails driven into your ear drums leaving behind the worst headache imaginable. The worst though, the thing that makes this the worst thing in a war for me, is the randomness. Are they going to get zeroed in on me and hit me after the first couple landed? Or will one land on us without any warning next time?

[@agnezabarutanski1963]

If this battle was fought by Americas or the Brits, there would be a movie about it twice each year. To think that Rzhev was a secondary battlefield is an insane fact in itself. It was just a relief front for the Soviets to buy time for strengthening the defense of Stalingrad. Almost one an a half million casulties combined, with no side achieving primary goals. The word 'brutal' comes to mind, but it's not enough to describe the savage nature of the Nazi-Soviet conflict. Always keep in mind that 80% of German losses, both in manpower and equipment, was suffered on the eastern front. And before you judge Russia for its sins, just think of what Russians went through in the 20th century.

You've probably heard about the Battle of Stalingrad? The battle for Rzhev took place at the same time in another sector of the Eastern Front. The battle of Rzhev attracted German reserves like a magnet; the Germans were unable to send the required number of troops to the aid of the surrounded 6th Army in Stalingrad.

@@VoidOfDarkness9 In 1943 there was an incident. Our soldiers could not take one hill on which 100 Germans were entrenched with machine guns and cannons. The new commander was ordered to take this hill despite the losses. He took just 20 soldiers and the Germans fled in panic from that hill. I won't say what he ordered to do because it sounds like a joke, I only believed in it because only a Russian could come up with such a stupid idiotic idea that would work.

the meat grinder.... I WAS KILLED NEAR RZHEV I was killed near Rzhev In a nameless bog, In fifth company, On the Left flank, In a cruel air raid I didn’t hear explosions And did not see the flash Down to an abyss from a cliff No start, no end And in this whole world To the end of its days - Neither patches, nor badges From my tunic you’ll find I am where the blind roots Seek for food in the dark I am where the rye waves On a hill in the dust I am where the cockerel cries In the dew of the dawn I am where your cars Tear the air on highways Where - small stalk to small stalk - River’s weaving its grass Where for the remembrance Even my mother won’t come In a bitter year’s summer I was killed. And for me Neither news nor bulletins Will come after this day Would you, the living, count How long before that For the first time in front news They named Stalingrad The front burned without stopping Like a scab on the flesh I was killed and I don’t know Is Rzhev ours at last? Have ours held their ground There, on the Middle Don? This was the month of horror Everything was at stake Could it be that by autumn He already took Don? And he broke through to Volga Riding onto its bank? No, it’s not true! That mission He could never complete. No way I say, no! Even for the dead It would be too terrible to hear Even the dead and voiceless Have one last single joy We have fallen for the Motherland But it’s finally saved. Our eyes have faded Out is the flame of our hearts And up there, at roll calls They are not calling us. We’re like bumps or stones Even darker and dumber. Our memory eternal - Who is jealous to it? Our ashes are rightfully Owned by black earth Our eternal glory Is of little delight. We shall not wear our Battle awards This is all for you, the living, We have just one last joy That we didn’t fight in vain For our Motherland Let our voice be inaudible You’ve got to know it now. And you had to, my brothers, Stand fast like a wall For the curse of the dead Is a terrible wrath We are forever given This bitter right And it is forever ours This bitter right In the summer of forty-two I was buried without a grave Everything what came later Was taken by the death All, what has been for many So clear and common But then may it all be In accord with our belief Brothers, maybe you didn’t Lose the Don battlefield only And were dying in battles Fighting behind Moscow And in steppes behind Volga Dug your trenches in haste And in battles you marched To the limits of Europe For us it would suffice To know for sure There was that last inch On the road of war - That very last inch: If it is abandoned, There’s nowhere to put The foot that had stepped behind And you drove the enemy Back to the West May it be so, my brethren And Smolensk’s now ours And you’re crushing the enemy On the other front, And maybe it’s the border Your are nearing now? May it be… Let the holy oath’s Words be fulfilled : For Berlin, if you remember Was named near Moscow Brothers, who now trample The stronghold of enemy land If the dead and the fallen Could only cry! If only victory salvoes could Resurrect us for an instant, Us, deaf and numb, Us, who rest in eternity O, my faithful comrades, Only then at this war Your limitless happiness You would realise! In this happiness there is Our inalienable part, Our, severed by the death, Faith and hatred and passion. All is ours! We did not cheat, In this cruel fight, We have given all ours And left nothing to ourselves Everything is bequeathed to you For all time, not for a term And this mental voice of ours Is no reproach to the living. For we had no distinction In this war at all: Those living and those fallen - We were all equal. And no one of the living Is indebted to us Those, who took up the colours From us on the run Only to fall one step later For the holy cause, For the Soviet power, Like all of us. I was killed at Rzhev, And he - somewhere near Moscow… Where are you, warriors, where, Is there anyone alive?! In the million-large cities In the villages, at family homes? At the military garrisons, On a foreign land? Ah, does it really matter If it’s foreign or ours If it’s snow-covered or blossoming… I bequeath you to live - What more can I do? I bequeath you to be happy In your life over there And to serve your Motherland With honour for long. When in sorrow - be proud, Do not bend down your head When rejoicing - don’t boast In the victory hour. And to safeguard, brothers, this victory, The happiness of yours, - In the memory of your warrior-brother Who has fallen for it.

[@arystanbeck914]

Rzhev was a mean grinder, natural hell on Earth. Once I watched a documentary about the battle. Soviets didn't attack on this flat field against trenches. German positions were on a steep elevation, very fortified, so Soviets had to climb this very steep wall protected by trees and slippery because of the ice. It was suicidal. Germans kept mowing them with machine guns but they kept coming and coming. They say that Germans knew when the attack was coming because the night before Soviets would sing this song "Black Raven": "Hey you raven, don't circle in the sky over my head, you are not going to get me, I am not yours." The night before the attack, Soviet soldiers were given 100 grams of vodka, so they drank it and sang the song, like a spell, hoping they won't be killed. Germans too felt dread hearing the song, it meant another day in hell is coming and nobody knows if you are going to live through it.

The Soviets had enough of everything to wage war except one - time. Soviet soldier's commitment was not to Stalin, communism or the five-armed, his commitment was to his people. The Soviet soldier was ready to make the greatest sacrifice because he knew that every indecision in the fight, every fear he showed, every step forward he did not make cost his people a lot because the German used every available moment to systematically exterminate the Russian people. The German soldier tried to show the same devotion when the Russian soldier set foot on German soil, but he did not manage to express himself, but turned to the enemy like the greatest coward and knelt down and begged him to accept him as his best friend and save him from the Soviets.

And even generals did it and this is just a minor thing according to you. Russians killed just as many as the Germans did. And you are just super ignorant and sad.. something that happened over 80 years ago (almost 2 generations) isn't that relevant anymore.

The scale of the fighting on the Eastern Front was just beyond comprehension. This battle almost goes unmentioned in contemporary histories as a relativity unmentioned battle compared to the bigger battles at Kharkov, Kursk and Stalingrad, yet these types of battles with this scale of brutal carnage were on a daily basis for pretty much 4 straight years; this war chewed millions of men up on all sides, regardless of the motivations, it's hard not to feel for men who fought, died or survived this hell. They must have carried the memories of this savagery forever.

I'm not going to give you the thorough lecture you need, but I'll just fill you in on the basics - Russian combat losses were at MINIMUM 8.5MM. German combat losses ring in around 2.2MM. Now if you include all the women and children and elderly people the Soviets murdered in Germany and Poland, maybe you might get to 5.3MM. But you need to check your sources. And try not to cite websites called "war is boring". It makes you look unintelligent.

Russian films like this are garbage propaganda to simply show their soldiers in the best light.

You do realize they went down for cover right? Its difficult to pick off an enemy when their silhouette is that small, and plenty of the charging boiz died what do you mean?

Japanese were slaughtered in Banzai charges because they always charged well entrenched American positions equipped with machine guns and submachine Garands. In the movie it is emphasized that their attack only worked because they took Germans by surprise and still half of the company died.

85%+ of European ww2 casualties were on the eastern front between Nazi Germany and the USSR. I'm Canadian and proud of our involvement but everyone needs to STFU about how the West won vs the Nazis. The Pacific War was won by the US (100k+ US deaths and 40k Aussies, 12K NZ) and Japan/China (~4 million dead for each) but 25 million dead Soviets and 9M dead Germans beg to differ. 180k US deaths in Europe, 450K UK deaths, 390k French deaths, 42k Canadians. All horrible losses but the USSR vs Germany war on the Eastern Front was on another level/scale of death.
