Default Re: Stalingrad: WW2's greatest battle

There is no possible connection between Stalingrad (ending in early Feb.43 with the German surrender) and the invasion of Normandy (June 44). A lot of things went on in between.

Even the Kursk battle ended in July 43. In the Normandy invasion timeframe we have the great Summer 44 offensive, including what was called "Destruction of Army Group Centre" (Op. Bagration pron. Bah-grah-tzion).

I hate to say this, but that sounds like rubbish. And the book was?


Guys, please be gentle with the man, we were all like this, more or less.
