Испанцы на Волхове: как Голубая дивизия два года держала фронт под Ленинградом?

The Blue Division is one of the most extraordinary stories of World War II. In 1941, Franco sent 47,000 Spanish volunteers to the Eastern Front to fight against the USSR as part of the Wehrmacht. For two years, they held the front on the Volkhov River and near Leningrad, fought for the Second Shock Army at Myasnoy Bor, survived the bloody day at Krasny Bor, and stood within the siege of the great city.
