WW2: Battle Of Stalingrad (Intense Footage)

History Purposes only!!!
Battle of Stalingrad, (July 17, 1942-February 2, 1943), successful Soviet defense of the city of Stalingrad (now Volgograd), Russia, U.S.S.R., during World War II. Russians consider it to be one of the greatest battles of their Great Patriotic War, and most historians consider it to be the greatest battle of the entire conflict. It stopped the German advance into the Soviet Union and marked the turning of the tide of war in favor of the Allies.
Stretching about 30 miles (50 km) along the banks of the Volga River, Stalingrad was a large industrial city producing armaments and tractors and was an important prize in itself for the invading German army. Capturing the city would cut Soviet transport links with southern Russia, and Stalingrad would then serve to anchor the northern flank of the larger German drive into the oil fields of the Caucasus. In addition, seizing the city that bore the name of Soviet leader Joseph Stalin would serve as a great personal and propaganda victory for Adolf Hitler. German war planners hoped to achieve that end with Fall Blau (“Operation Blue”), a proposal that Hitler assessed and summarized in Führer Directive No. 41 on April 5, 1942. Hitler’s goal was to eliminate Soviet forces in the south, secure the region’s economic resources, and then wheel his armies either north to Moscow or south to conquer the remainder of the Caucasus. The offensive would be undertaken by Army Group South under Field Marshal Fedor von Bock. On June 28, 1942, operations began with significant German victories.

[@ArcticWolf00Alpha0]

Well, the main reason is because Stalingrad was the tipping point of WW2. Unlike the other battles of the Eastern Front, Stalingrad saw the destruction of the entire German 6th army and turned the tide in the battle against the Germans...it quite literally spelled doom for the Germans of WW2.

В последнее время, на фоне страстей, бушующих вокруг реформы юридической системы, тема религиозного давления, казалось бы, отошла на второй план. Между тем, лидеры харедим добиваются ограничения судебных полномочий не менее активно, чем другие участники коалиции. Именно БАГАЦ принял «возмутительные» решения о гиюре, признании реформистского и консервативного направлений иудаизма, отсрочке от призыва и проч. Пока существует вето Верховного суда, харедим не могут быть спокойны ни за один свой законопроект, даже утвержденный Кнессетом. Не случайно отмена этого вето была одним из условий вступления ультраортодоксов в коалицию и одним из главных требований Совета мудрецов Торы. Однако эту свою заинтересованность политики-ультраортодоксы стараются не афишировать и вообще не привлекать к себе лишнего внимания. Можно заметить, например, что эта прослойка населения не принимает организованного участия в выступлениях в поддержку реформы, в отличие от поселенцев и сторонников Ликуда. Причина проста: лидеры ШАС и «Еврейства Торы» опасаются вызвать огонь на себя - как выразился один из них, «спровоцировать гражданскую войну между светскими и религиозными». У этих опасений есть резон. Затянувшиеся протесты в этом случае обретут второе дыхание и новую цель. Причем лозунги и требования, направленные против власти раввината и религиозного давления, будут более жесткими и конкретными, чем нынешние довольно абстрактные призывы защитить демократию от диктатуры, ведь претензии неортодоксального населения к харедим давно известны и сформулированы. Вероятно, эти выступления даже привлекут дополнительные массы протестующих, тех, кто до сего момента держался в стороне от политических акций. В другое, менее турбулентое время и в других обстоятельствах принятие закона, защищающего молодых ультраортодоксов от призыва, могло бы пройти почти незамеченным. Ведь даже армейские начальники не возражают против закона о снижении призывного возраста. Спор идет лишь о цифрах: ЦАХАЛ согласен на 23 года, вместо 26 лет, политики-харедим требуют 21, и, скорее всего, стороны сойдутся на 22. В ЦАХАЛе не особенно скрывают, что привлечение к службе молодых людей из ультрарелигиозного сектора создает больше головной боли, чем преимуществ, и никак не влияет на вопросы безопасности. Не зря сама идея отмены отсрочки от призыва для ультраортодоксов всегда концентрировалась на равенстве и равном распределении обязанностей, а вовсе не на потребностях армии. Иными словами, весь спор вокруг призыва имеет скорее символический характер, чем действительно решает какие-то проблемы государства и общества. Но ведь и с судебной реформой происходит то же самое. До сих пор не все протестующие, каждую неделю выходящие на улицы с флагами Израиля, понимают, в чем суть этой реформы и как она осложнит их жизнь. Зато они хорошо представляют себе, в каком государстве хотят жить - в том, где работают все демократические институты, власть не узурпирована элитой и законы одинаковы для всех граждан. И разумеется, такое государство должно быть отделено от религии и никак не подчиняться религиозным организациям - с этим не спорят даже верующие участники протестов. Если - а вернее, когда, поскольку это произойдет очень скоро, - если и когда тема призыва снова окажется на повестке дня, народный гнев обратится против политики подчинения себе государственной системы, уже много лет проводимой ультраортодоксальными кругами. Борьба за демократический Израиль, как называют нынешнее протестное движение, обещает превратиться в борьбу за светский Израиль. Но в отличие от ее прежних проявлений, у этой борьбы теперь есть свои сплоченные силы, свое руководство, свои идеологи и формы противостояния. Вряд ли дело дойдет до открытых столкновений между протестующими и харедимным населением. Это полностью зависит от действий ультраортодоксальных политиков, а у них, будем надеяться, хватит ума не звать своих сторонников на баррикады. Да и боятся они на самом деле не «гражданской войны», а то, что бунт против ограничения призыва перейдет в требование глобального пересмотра отношений между религией и государством. Ведь точно так же лозунги о защиты демократии выросли из отстаивания полномочий суда. Нетаниягу в этом раскладе не позавидуешь. Он снова оказался меж двух огней: между мощным общественным давлением и угрозой распада коалиции. Его наиболее благоразумные соратники считают, что премьер должен срочно начать разъяснительную кампанию в связи с новым пакетом обсуждаемых законопроектов. Мол, все беспорядки, связанные с реформой, начались из-за того, что народу плохо объяснили ее суть и цели. Но это, по меньшей мере, наивный подход. Невозможно никакими разъяснениями убедить людей смириться с властью, если она им не нравится, и тем более это не удастся лидеру, против которого, в сущности, и направлены протесты. Другое дело, что депутаты от ШАС и «Еврейства Торы» вряд ли решатся развалить правительство, пока есть шанс получить от него то, чего они хотят, - не прямо сейчас, так в ближайшем будущем. Зато они первыми покинут коалицию, как только она сама начнет тонуть, чтобы оставить себе возможность войти в другое правительство. Из этих же соображений они, казалось бы, не заинтересованы усугублять конфликт и настраивать против себя общественное мнение. Но пока неизвестно, что возьмет верх - долговременная стратегия или стремление к цели любой ценой.

[@whiteschool685]

Actually, after Stalingrad (633,000 deaths), the next deadliest battle was the battle of Berlin (539,000 deaths) and then the third deadliest was Operation Bagration (379,000 deaths). The battle of the Somme is fourth with 343,000 deaths, and you don't get Verdun (234,000) until sixth, after the battle of Hankow (250,000). While Verdun and Somme were extremely deadly and horrible, they were definitely not the second and third 'most bloodiest battle campaigns in history'.

Short before he died,he tried few times to go back on foot home to Montenegro where he wanted to pass away...It was painful for us to watch that. it's like 500km away from place where he (we) lived.

This is the statue of children circling around their crocodile friend. In the background is the terminal building of Stalingrad 1. 0:49 Some of the downtown seen from higher ground at or near the cathedral by Dvinskaya Ulitsa. 0:56 Looking across the main railyard at some of the downtown. The pilastered building is still standing by Kommunisticheskaya & Gagarina. At 0:58 are two large (apartment) Houses of Specialists; the one at right is obscured. They are seen better at 1:52+. 1:02 2:13..... Grain elevator building and silos. 1:06 Along Bolshievitsksya Ulitsa, near the old church. And at 1:59+. 1:29 Stalingrad North. 1:31 In Krasnoarmeysk. Apartment house at 8 Arsenyev Ulitsa. Still standing in 2022. Some of the balconies are now enclosed. 1:48 In Stalingrad North. View of the E-shaped school (no. 34) at N48.7547°, E044.5492°. Still there in 2022. Some of the storage tanks at Krasnyi Oktyabr's oil depot (N48.752°, E044.564°) are in the background--seen against the Volga background. Some of the same tanks are there in 2022. 2:04+ View down Kurskaya Ulitsa; a House of Specialists is seen against the Volga. 2:28 Barrikady gun factory. 3:21+ Mirror image. Panorama of the riverfront around the main landing stage. Smoke blocks the view of the State Bank. 3:32 The Don and the Volga reservoirs weren't there until after the War. 4:33 Barrikady factory--north corner. Buildings still there in 2022. 4:42 Poland 4:46 5:11 Barrikady factory. 4:49 4:57 Not Stalingrad. 5:19 From the Voroshilovskiy Region, looking northeast toward Stalingrad Center. At right, in the foreground of the very light-coloured building, is the railway trestle-bridge across the Tsaritsa. 5:29 I have it on good authority that this is Dotsenko Ulitsa in Krasnoarmeysk. In looking on Google Maps, it appears to be (N48.5132°, E044.5284°) by the east corner of 39 Ulitsa Dotsenko, viewing north. 6:56 Krasnyi Oktyabr'! This is near its long smelting building--the Martenovskii 'Shop or "Halle 4." The position is by a stanchion for the conveyor gantries that ran alongside the building. This is out near where the Germans had been when trying to press in and surround the Soviet defenders. 7:00 In the Martenovskii 'Shop.

My Grandfather was in the 6th army 44th infantry division and saw action in Poland, France and Kharkov. He was later captured along with thousands of men at Stalingrad. Ultimately he lost 80 pounds of body weight moving around different Russian labour camps post war before finally returning home to Germany in the 1950 and lived a long peaceful life. His younger brother started off the war in the East as part of the 439th Regiment of the 134th Division and was at the battle of Moscow then later he was one of 9 survivors out of 1,000 men in his regiment to die in the battle of Kursk where he was injured and furloughed as a result. He survived heavy allied bombing and returned to active combat in the end as part of the 512th heavy tank destroyer battalion as a loader for the Jagdtiger when he surrendered to the Americans in May 1945. The eldest brother out of the 3 served in the German navy as an officer. He was on submarine U-107 which sank British ship Colonial off Guinea, French West Africa; the entire crew of 100 survived and rescued by HMS Centurion.

How would they know that at that time? They didn't expect to lose. They are in fear because people are shooting at them. A few hundred thousand were captured.

I had a best friend in high school that had a grandfather that was a German soldier during WWII. He was drafted into the army as a young man with no choice. He participated in the invasion of Poland and then the Invasion of the Soviet Union... he made it to Stalingrad where he was shot in the lower leg... he was evacuated out sometime before the Germans were surrounded and then surrendered... being wounded in that battle at that time likely saved his life. He went on to recover and redeployed to Africa before his unit eventually surrendered to the British and then he eventually moved to the United States... what an insane experience.
