The Lost Evidence: Stalingrad (1/5)
On 23 August 1942, 330,000 men of the German Sixth Army broke through Soviet defences outside the city of Stalingrad. It seemed as if nothing could prevent the fall of the city. Yet two months later, the Germans were locked in a deadly battle of attrition amid a wasteland of human carnage and pulverised rubble. Their offensive, which would become known as the Rat War, had become a murderous close-contact struggle. This episode reveals how Hitlers master plan to undermine the Soviet Union ground to a halt in the shattered ruins of Stalingrad, and combines extraordinary aerial reconnaissance photographs taken during the course of the battle with the latest in computer technology to create a three dimensional model of the city. Forgotten for over sixty years, these unique aerial images have been unearthed in the recently reopened archives of the former Soviet Union. The decisive battle of the Eastern Front can now be seen unfolding step by bloody step. As the centrepiece of his Eastern strategy, Hitler ordered his armies to strike south in order to seize the vital oilfields of the Caucasus region. In order to do this, they needed to capture Stalingrad and secure their northern flank. When the Panzers reached the city on the river Volga, they were on the border of Asia itself. However, for more than a hundred gruesome days, the Soviet defenders of Stalingrad made the German Sixth Army pay in blood for every inch of ground they won. The fast-moving tank columns of the Blitzkrieg were replaced been by savage hand to hand combat in a maze of ruined factories, shops and apartment blocks. Outnumbered and outgunned, the men of the Red Army suffered appalling losses. However, by clinging to their positions they were able to draw the Germans into a fatal trap. As the Arctic conditions of the Russian winter paralysed German supply lines, Stalin unleashed an overwhelming counterattack which completely encircled the doomed Sixth Army. With archive film, dramatic re-enactments and powerful eye witness testimony from both Russian and German veterans, watch the incredible story of an epic battle which altered the entire course of World War Two.

Battle of Stalingrad http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Stalingrad The Battle of Stalingrad was a major battle of World War II in which Nazi Germany and its allies fought the Soviet Union for control of the city of Stalingrad (now Volgograd) in southwestern Russia. It took place between 17 July 1942 and 2 February 1943. The battle is considered by many historians to be the turning point of World War II in Europe, comparable to the way the Battle of Midway is considered to be the turning point of the Pacific War. The battle involved more participants than any other on the Eastern Front, and was marked by its brutality and disregard for military and civilian casualties by both sides. It was amongst the bloodiest in the history of warfare, with the upper estimates of combined casualties coming to nearly two million. The German offensive to capture Stalingrad proceeded rapidly in the late summer of 1942, supported by Luftwaffe bombing which reduced much of the city to rubble. However, the German offensive bogged down in house-to-house fighting; despite controlling over 90% of the city at times, the Wehrmacht was unable to dislodge the last Soviet defenders, who clung tenaciously to the west bank of the Volga River as the weather turned rainy and cold. In November 1942, the Red Army launched Operation Uranus, a two-pronged attack on the exposed flanks of the German 6th Army in Stalingrad. This operation dramatically turned the tables, as the weakly held German flanks collapsed and the German 6th Army was cut off and surrounded inside Stalingrad. As the Russian winter set in, the 6th Army weakened rapidly from cold, starvation and ongoing Soviet attacks, but command ambiguity coupled with Adolf Hitler's resolute belief in the "power of the will" and the value of standing fast prevented it from breaking out. During December, a German attempt to break the encirclement failed, and subsequently all attempts at supply collapsed. By early February 1943, German resistance in Stalingrad had ceased, and the surrounded 6th Army had been destroyed.
