Default Re: Russian WW2 interesting stats and facts

From Jacek Solarz " Wiking 1941-45 "

The Battle of Budapest

The Germansīthird attempt to free Budapest started well, but the Soviets organized an overwhelming counterattack. The sheer force can be evidenced by the fact that just one battalion of the " Westland " regiment ( SS-Sturmbannfuhrer Fritz Vogtīs " Norge " battalion )was attacked by as many as 180 Soviet tanks (!!).
