BATTLESTORM STALINGRAD E3 Stalemate on the Don

The Soviet Union was in deep trouble during the Battle of Stalingrad Campaign. Their economy was on the brink of collapse, with food rations at starvation levels. On the 28th of July 1942, Stalin implements his infamous Order 227, which is welcomed by the troops fighting at the Great Bend of the Don River. Paulus's 6th Army manages to consolidate its positions, but can it prevent Group Zhuravlev from breaking out of its pocket? Let's find out.

ABOUT TIK

History isn’t as boring as some people think, and my goal is to get people talking about it. I also want to dispel the myths and distortions that ruin our perception of the past by asking a simple question - “But is this really the case?”. I have a 2:1 Degree in History and a passion for early 20th Century conflicts (mainly WW2). I’m therefore approaching this like I would an academic essay. Lots of sources, quotes, references and so on. Only the truth will do.

This video is discussing events or concepts that are academic, educational and historical in nature. This video is for informational purposes and was created so we may better understand the past and learn from the mistakes others have made.
