The Battle of Stalingrad is seen today as one of the most significant turning points of the Second World War. It is known today as one of the bloodiest battles of World War 2, if not in History. There would be around 2 million casualties of the battle, with scores of battalions wiped out in brutal urban combat and fighting inside of the city. Hitler and Stalin both valued Stalingrad heavily, Hitler wanted to decimate the city that held the name of his nemesis, and wanted to heavily inflict damage to the Soviet war effort.

When the Germans attacked Stalingrad, initially they were incredibly successful. They drove the Red Army back, and the Luftwaffe attempted to pick them off. However a incredible counter-attack launched by the Soviets led to the German 6th Army being encircled. After this, the German Army really suffered with a lack of food, lack of supplies and then the Russian winter set in. There were horrific accounts of soldiers just frozen to death, and also members of the Wehrmacht who starved to death. The bodies lined the streets, and these added to the number of casualties.

The Soviet Red Army counter-attack devastated the German Sixth Army and they were left with huge losses. Eventually the brutal urban fighting continued and the Germans surrendered, leaving Hitler with his first major defeat. The German population were not notified of the demoralising defeat for a while after, and Stalingrad today is viewed as a battle of huge significance during World War 2. After Stalingrad, the Red Army pushed forward eventually resulting in a large German retreat.
