Start of the Battle of Stalingrad
On July 17th, 1942 one of the most important battles of the Eastern Front – the Battle of Stalingrad - began.
This battle was crucial for both sides. For the German troops Stalingrad was of both strategic and ideological importance: its favorable location would make it possible to turn Stalingrad into a logistics center that would allow launching an offensive in the North Caucasus, and because of the symbolic name of the city its capture could severely damage Soviet morale. Realizing this, after months of constant retreat, the Soviet command threw all the reserves available at the time into the defense of Stalingrad.
