Volgograd







Volgograd in Russia is the old "Stalingrad" where from August 21, 1942 to February 3, 1943 the German Army under Hitler fought the Russian Army of Josef Stalin under Nikita Kruschev.




The Russians won, the Germans lost and this was the loss that cascaded across Europe and ended in May of 1945 with complete surrender of Germany and their allies.
