Color photographs bring a whole new dynamic. Amazing. Invading the Soviet Union was a colossal mistake, issuing idiotic directives such as denying the 6th Army a breakout attempt assured the Third Reich's demise before the rubble of Stalingrad even cooled.

There was no strategy to staying in Stalingrad. Only that Hitler wouldn't let Grl. Paulus retreat from there and loose face after he told the German people that Stalingrad would soon be ours!..Even after the 6th Army was sourrounded Hitler still wouldn't let paulus punch out of there. At the start of the siege, Paulus had app. 290,000 soldiers. Russia thought they had captured about 88,000!!!. Hitler left them on their own to die or sourrender!
