Borodzatyn,
Russia, 22 June 1941:
The
sounds of incoming artillery heralded the attack of Panzer Division 4, attacking
across the Bug River south of Brest-Litovsk. The
Grenadiers of Panzer-Grenadier Regiment 33, supported by a platoon of tanks from
Panzer Regiment 35, marched eastward along the main road into the town. German
panzers duelled with Soviet light
tanks, while German grenadiers
stormed the heavily defended municipal building…

| #2) Bobruysk,
Russia, 25 June 1944:
The
radios of the Soviet Don Tank Corps crackled with the words “Storm
Five-Five-Five!”
The all-out offensive against the salient of Army Group Centre had begun. However,
east of the Bobruysk Bridge over the Berezina River waited a worthy opponent.
The reinforced II/Panzer Regiment 21, Panzer Division 20 was well placed
and could be employed against either a northerly or southerly Russian
thrust.
The battalion was superbly equipped,
with about one hundred battle worthy Mark IVs. However, Major Paul Schulze, in
command of the regiment, had received no orders...

Staryy
Bykhov Russia, 4 July 1941:
The German Blitzkrieg was still in full swing and Heniz Guderian’s Second
Panzer Group’s spearheads had crossed the Berezina at Bobruysk and Borisov and
were now making for the Dnieper. Fortune favours the bold, and Guderian’s or
Fast Heniz, as he was known as, wanted to cross the Dnieper. Guderian’s
advanced detachments discovered the Russians had fortified and were strongly
holding the principal Dnieper crossings at Rogachev, Mogilev, and Orsha…

Germany, 3 May 1945:
Despite the Germans’
pyrrhic victories of Seelow Heights
and Diedersdorf, the Red Army broke through the German defences
along the Oder River and
advanced towards the German capital. On 27 April, Sturmartillerie Brigade 249
successfully broke through the Soviet encircling ring before the Red Army had
been able to consolidate its position, and the brigade’s
assault guns took up positions within the Berlin defensive perimeter…

Northeast
of Kharkov Russia, 17 May 1942:
The Germans had to eliminate the Soviet bulge on both sides of Izyum, which
represented a permanent threat to Kharkov. As the Russians sped forward towards
Kharkov, huge supplies stored in warehouses in Kharkov were about to fall into
the Russians hands of unimaginable quantities. Timoshenko's
northern pincer raged forward towards Kharkov. The Soviets launched the 28th
Army with 16 Rifle, and Cavalry Divisions, 3 Armoured Brigade, and 2 Motorizied
Brigades…

Gorodok
Russia, 12 January 1943: The
Neva River had been frozen since 7th January. The Russians unleashed from 4500
barrels a hurricane of fire over the German positions. The shell burst and heavy
mortar fire was reinforced with the weight of the Red Fleet in the Leningrad
harbour. Then across the perfectly flat, snow-covered ice of the Neva, charged
in close line abreast, the men of the Soviet 13th Rifle Division. Their
objective was the hospital in Gorodok where Leutnant Winacker had set up his
command post of his 2nd Company, Engineer Battalion 240, transforming the
smouldering block of buildings into a spitfire fortress…
