My trip to Stalingrad

[Woolgar]

Just returned from an incredible week in Stalingrad/Volgograd!

Visited the Tractor Factory, Flour Mill, Red October Factory , Pavlovs House, Grain Elevator, etc etc.... saw the lot !

Travelled 50 km to Kalach-on Don to see where the two Soviet armies linked up

Far too many photos to post here so here is a selection...

Very interesting photos. Those pock marked ruined buildings really tell the story of grim urban combat.
