Stalingrad, Jan 10th, 1943: Operation Ring was preceded by a massive barrage the initial attacks were to try to eliminate the SW protuberance, named the Marinovka, or Karpovka, Nose. After the bombardment, three waves of men rolled forward with red banners waving, tanks were mixed in at regular intervals. On the southern sector a hole was opened around the Rumanian positions, but was quickly sealed, in the NE the German line bent, but did not break. The main Soviet effort was from the west and the weakened German divisions, with little ammunition, did not stand a chance. Gradually they were pushed back. The 6th Army's resistance, considering their physical and material weakness, was amazing, they made the Soviets pay dearly for each yard, especially in the first 3 days.
