On 20 September, a civilian informed Lt. Dragan that a massive German buildup was taking place. Fortifications and street barricades were prepared as well as detachments of men armed with anti-tank rifles and molotov cocktails to combat tanks. The storm broke on 21 September, a day which Dragan would recall as "the darkest day" for his battalion.

Stalingrad, Russia

In the Battle of Stalingrad, Germany and its allies fought the Soviet Union for control of the city of Stalingrad in Southern Russia. Marked by fierce close-quarters combat and direct assaults on civilians in air raids, it is one of the bloodiest battles in the history of warfare, with an estimated 2 million total casualties. After their defeat at Stalingrad, the German High Command had to withdraw considerable military forces from the Western Front to replace their losses.
