Title: I declare today Marshal Zhukov appreciation day
Post by: Lt. Fred on November 19, 2012, 04:57:47 am
We should all raise a glass of vodka to old Geogei Zhokov today, since it's the 60th anniversary of Operation Uranus, the virtually perfect envelopment of the entire 6th Army group around Stalingrad. Like a boss.

The 6th Army, parts of the 4th Panzer Army and some other Hungarian and Italian troops.

Eh, I prefer Konev and Rokossovsky. Remember Mars was also launched around this time and that was a complete failure.
