I was watching Battlefield Detectives where they did a show onStalingrad. Interesting stuff on hbow each of the two armies dealt with the cold. It was so cold that the lube in the guns froze. The russians mixed gasoline with their lube and their guns didn't freeze.
What's the title?
ReplyDeleteA compilation book, actually; Frontsoldaten, by Stephen G. Fritz.
