Default Re: What would you LIKE to research ?

Surprised I never saw this thread before? Like WOW mon.

Eh hem, anyway, I would like to research (if I ever get the time to) the following:

1) Anything und evrything to do with the battle for Stalingrad.
2) Ditto for Kursk.
3) The German retreat from Finland.
4) The fighting in the Courland Pocket.
5) The Evacuation through Riga.
6) The fighting in the area where my favorite RKT won his Knights Cross-which was in Latvia. Need I say his name? ;-D
7) The battles for the Seelowe Heights.
8) And finally, the battle for Berlin.

PS, I almost forgot to add:

1a.) Operation Barbarossa.
2a.) The initial drive towards Moscow.
3a.) The drive towards the Germans farthers penetration on the Eastern Front-towards the City of: Astrakhan-on-the-Volga. You can thank von Manstein for this one ;-))
4a.) Both battles for Kharkov.
5a.) The fighting for Kiev and the great encirclements thereof.
6a.) The Siege of Leningrad.
7a.) The fighting in the Kuban Peninsula-siege of Sebastopol etc.
8a.) The battles for Mount Elbrus - where the highest battle of the ground war took place.

1b.) The Don River Crossings.
2b.) Anything to do with the defensive battles of 1942 1nd 1943.
3b.) Anything to do with the Russian Winter and Summer offensives of 1941, 1942, 1943, 1944, and 1945.

To make my list short, anything and everything to do with the fighting on the Eastern Front from 1941 to 1945. :-D

A one track mind--hell yes!!! ;-))
