0624_20a: A Crisis in the South - [HTH]_Alt - PzC 16 Minsk '44

Bobruysk, 100kms SE of Minsk, June 24th 1944: The assault on the vital town of Bobruysk came about a day later than the initial attack in the north. Marshall Rokossovskiy had come to the conclusion that the attack had to be mounted in the form of a pincer movement, with two Armies and a Tank Corps for each jaw. Stalin had not been too pleased with the plan, but the Marshall had "stuck to his guns" under intense pressure from the Soviet dictator and the Stavka. One pincer was to move towards Bobruysk from the area of Rogachev in the east, the other, through the swampy terrain, in the south.
