The west flank of the Korsun Salient, 120kms SE Kiev, January 26th 1944: On the morning of this second phase of the Soviet offensive, the 1st Ukrainian Front struck. Although slow from the very beginning, the attack built in momentum. Later in the day the units of the 6th Tank Army were drawn into frontal battle and they made their presence felt by reinforcing the sector with the best gains. The powerful tank and mechanized force did a left hook to fall in behind and reinforce the 47th Rifle Corps in pressing for Medvin. [Size medium]
