Мы попали в настоящий ад — признания солдат Вермахта

In the fall of 1942, the Wehrmacht's invincible 6th Army entered the burning ruins of Stalingrad, expecting a quick victory. But instead of triumph, the German soldiers faced the worst nightmare of their lives. Why did the surviving invaders forever remember this city as absolute "Hell on Earth"? They conquered Europe in a matter of weeks, but in Stalingrad, they couldn't capture a single street for months. German propaganda promised the city's swift fall, but reality proved merciless. In this video, we'll read the diaries and letters of German soldiers to understand the psyche of Hitler's finest army breaking down. We'll tell you what happened in the ruined basements and frozen trenches from the perspective of those caught in the "Stalingrad pocket."
