Capt. Vance Astrovich Posted June 21, 2001 Share Posted June 21, 2001 Quote from the diary of a German Soldier in Stalingrad in late 1942, taken from "The World at War" episode on Stalingrad. "By day, it is an enormous cloud of burning, blinding smoke; a vast furnace lit by the reflection of the flames. And when night arrives, one of those very hot, noisy, bloody nights, the dogs plunge into the Volga and swim desparately to gain the other bank. The nights of Stalingrad are a terror for them. Animals flee from this hell.The hardest stones cannot bear it for long. Only men endure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
