From the reports of German soldiers about the battles in Stalingrad

17

German pedantry is well known. She at one time played a kind, if in this case this word is used at least somehow appropriately, a joke on the Nazis, when hundreds of volumes of criminal cases were being prepared for the Nuremberg Tribunal. Numerous testimonies of German soldiers and officers about the commission of certain war crimes in the occupied territories were added to the cases. Moreover, many of the data were meticulously collected by the Nazi command itself - for example, to encourage military units and formations.

Many reports have survived in the military archives and about the events of the Battle of Stalingrad. A lot of data can be gleaned from the reports of the Nazis, who managed to escape from the encirclement on the Volga. If they managed to get to "their", then they reported about what was happening in the "cauldron".



The reports say, for example, about battles in the area of ​​the Krasny Oktyabr plant. The data of one of the non-commissioned officers, who in 1943 was lucky enough to get out of the encirclement in Stalingrad, are given.

The reports provide data on the tactics of Soviet troops, numbers, weapons, and the actions of specific units in the sectors.

The Germans' testimonies about the battles in the city on the Volga are presented in the material "Memories of a Soldier":

        This is also my opinion - the enemy who came to my land with weapons in his hands must be destroyed. Those who are lucky enough to stay alive should never see their homeland. Hard work for redemption and for building. Work and repent, until the end of their days.

      Sometimes it seems that everyone who writes or removes about the Fritzes is fiercely masturbating with them. And by the way about German pedantry, I read about frostbite during the Battle of Moscow. These statistics were kept when "General Frost" gave them life, but the fact that to send one single intelligence officer so that he told the Fuehrer that in the USSR it happens, in some places, the temperature is below zero, these pedantists lacked intelligence.

      Such a sincere video about a heroic German sergeant. In short, for those who did not listen: An innocent German non-commissioned officer, consisting of an incomplete company of 40 soldiers and one officer, is holding a defense against the Russian barbarians somewhere in the area of ​​the Krasny Oktyabr plant. The Germans have a couple of machine guns and a dozen carbines. The Russians are constantly ironing this company with heavy artillery and mortars (that's right !!). During the day, the Germans beat off three attacks by the many times superior enemy forces, which for some reason disagreed with their harmless presence on the banks of the Volga. The enemy suffers huge losses, but is not appeased. The heroic non-commissioned officer and his company slowly retreat somewhere in the ass. There they are loaded onto a plane and a little upset by the Russian inhospitableness they fly to Fatherland. Unther is a cutie, the Russians are Barbarians, who did not appreciate the happiness that fell on them.

      There was also the second part about some corporal. But I no longer listened. I had enough.

        Sergei Gavrilovich Semenov, 1931 g, d Maksimovo, Staritskiy district of the Kalinin region: "We were under a German for a month and a half, but next to Rzhev 1,5 g, They did not consider us as people. They could easily kill" At 10 years old, the child understood instinct, everyday communication, glances and beat, kicked out of the hut.
        + the elder brother died at the front, and 2 more were blown up on the remaining supplies in the ground (which ones? I dismantled out of curiosity, but I don’t know)

      Than to shoot a video, they would give content with text. If you really need, then a couple of pictures. In principle, I don’t watch commercials, unless it’s a genuine shooting of that time and place.

      Ha, naive. Their history teaches nothing. Everyone will not understand in any way that Russia, the USSR, Russia. It doesn't matter what the name of this country is. Being on the defensive, the territories have always grown

      Do you believe that a German soldier evacuated from Stalingrad during the war will write in his report how things really were? Naturally not, they are not fools, they will write in the report what is expected of them - "the Germans are heroes, but they were crushed by the number of undermenses." Yes, all these reports are not worth the paper they are written on. And to shoot a video based on them - just go to serve in the department of Goebbels, IHMO!

      Some kind of dosed information. The archives of the Second World War have not been declassified. What's in this Pandora's box?

        Another thing is interesting, how the Germans fought off the attackers from the PPSh at a distance of 10m using their carbines (like our three-line) while being in less quantity, although they mention three more machine guns, but at such a distance it is quite difficult to transfer machine-gun fire from one fire from one target to another, and in general the entire experience of the Stalingrad battles shows that the machine gun did not give the parties any special advantages over the rifle and at the same time consumed more cartridges.

      Always amazed are the "pangs of conscience" that the invaders allegedly feel when they come to a foreign land with the aim of conquering it and destroying or making slaves of the people who live on this land. These scoundrels do not repent, do not curse their government and the state that made them occupiers and murderers, but "think" is incomprehensible to the mind, they, you see, think about what is happening. Are they ... "people" too !?
      Yes, you are not people, Nazis and fascists of all stripes, parasites, bandits and crooks. It is a pity that only a few Nazi criminals were tried in Nuremberg, and not everyone and everyone who came to Russia, Yugoslavia, Poland, Czechoslovakia, who captured Holland and Norway, who bombed English cities, who killed partisans from the "Maki" in France, who gassed and destroyed in concentration camps everyone who did not agree with the regime that reigned in Germany in the XNUMXth century, but at the same time thought, what did he do so wrong and lost in that war. The descendants of these "thinkers" have practically not changed? The question is rhetorical!
