Near the Don, winter 1942- 43: the costly fighting
following the attempt to open a corridor to the 6th
Army trapped in Stalingrad. A wrecked Soviet T-34/76,
with some of its ammunition spilled on the snow, is
surrounded by curious Panzer-Grenadiers of 6th
Pz. Div. dressed in the reversible winter combat suit.
