  7. Very sad. I have understood thanks to its books that my freedom of thought is born from the sacrifice of many citizen soldiers. God bless him.

  13. Enoch, try Stephen Budiansky's book "Battle of Wits". A very fascinating story about the codebreaking activity, ULTRA system and so on. The book was a revelation for me especially when the author describe how Bletchley Park and not Montgomery defeated Rommel. Bye.

  16. The italian secret weapon on the eastern front was the horse .... yes horse vs T-34. Here there are two scenario descriptions from Talonsoft East Front: 18 july 1942 Krasny Luch, 120km E of Stalino In early 1942 Hitler requested that the Italians expanded their expeditionary force in the Soviet Union and by July Mussolini had nearly 227,000 men serving on the Eastern Front in the Eighth Army. Following the failure of Stalin's spring offensive at Kharkov, on June 28th, the Germans launched their planned attack toward Stalingrad and into the Caucasus, known as Case Blau. Relegated to a secondary role, the Italians began to move on July 11th, mopping up Russian rearguards and by-passed units behind the German spearheads. The Soviet 274th Rifle Division had been badly mauled in the fighting south of Kharkov and was unable to retreat in the face of the German assault. Instead the determined Russian troops dug-in at Krasny Luch, west of Severdlovsk, and prepared to fightto the death rather than surrender. The task of clearing the town fell to the Bersaglieri and Cavalry of the Italian 3rd Celere Division. 24 August, 1942 Yagodny, 170km NW of Stalingrad While summer wore on the Italian 8th Army was beginning to settle into defensive positions along the Don River, north of Stalingrad, protecting the Axis flank and freeing German divisions for operations at Stalingrad and in the Caucasus. By mid-August the lines were not fully defended and the Soviets saw their chance. For three days, the Italians withstood attack by hordes of Russian infantry. On the 24th the 3rd Rapid Division counterattacked between Yagodny and Chebotarevsky south of the Don River. As the two formations clashed the 47th Bersaglieri Motorcycle Battalion was threatened with being cut-off and destroyed by elements of the Soviet 812th Rifle Regiment. Colonel Bettoni, commanding the 3rd Savoia Cavalry Regiment, eagerly received instructions to charge the enemy! While other motorized units struggled to reach the trapped battalion, the cavalrymen began what would become their Final Hurrah. The last Italian cavalry charge in history! Brave men without hope who fought to satisfy the ambitions of a small man called Mussolini. Of 229.000 men sent in Russia, 29.690 were repatriated because wounded or frozen. Of remainder, the survivors were only 114.485. The missing in action were 84.830 men of which 10.030 were returned from the USSR. The total of the losses assembled 74.800 men. The 8th army on the eastern front: Infantry Divisions: Infantry division Cosseria Semi-Motorized division Pasubio Infantry division Ravenna Infantry division Sforzesca Motorized division Torino Infantry division Vicenza Alpine Divisions: Alpine division Tridentina Alpine division Julia Alpine division Cuneense

  18. 1)South Europe for us, West Europe for the americans. 2)It's the same CDV. the cost of CVD-distribution CMBB and BTS-distribution CMBB!!!??? 3)CDV will be the exclusive distributor for CMBB in Europe, including Germany, France, UK, Finland, Spain, Italy and other West European countries(Moon's words). 4)CDV Knows the release date in Italy. Many of our products and games are only sold online, so you won't find them anywhere else! (BTS policy). Yes Heinz very disappointing news ... :confused:

  20. Interesting site about the restoration of Tiger 131 at the The Tank Museum of Bovington, UK. Issued to Schwere Heeres Panzer Abteilung 504 and shipped to Tunisia between 12 March & 16 April 1943. Tiger 131 was attached to No. 3 Platoon in No. 1 Company. It was knocked out in action with Churchill tanks of No. 4 Troop, A Squadron, 48th Royal Tank Regiment at Medjez-el-Bab on 21 April 1943. And then a new life... http://www.tiger-tank.com/index.html
