On 19th November 1942, the Red Army launched Operation Uranus, attacking the flanks of the German 6th Army and surrounding them in Stalingrad.
Hitler refused any requests for permission to break out of Stalingrad, instead ordering the 6th Army to hold fast in "Fortress Stalingrad".
Field Marshal Erich von Manstein, a masterful tactician, was appointed to the Southern Russia Theatre as the commander Army Group Don.
Hitler ordered Manstein to relieve the trapped 6th Army and salvage the situation. To achieve this objective, Hitler transferred the 6th Panzer Division, then resting in France, to the Eastern Front.
They were to lead the way for Operation Winter Storm. This is their story.
