Completely revised second edition. Adelbert Holl was a 23-year-old infantry Leutnant when he rejoined his unit in Stalingrad after recovering from wounds suffered in April 1942. This book records his experiences as a junior infantry commander in 94. Infanterie-Division during the Stalingrad battle. The infantry bore the most laborious and difficult role. They were not propelled forward by engines, were not protected by armour-plating. They stood eye to eye with the enemy. That is why Holl’s report is so impressive, so enthralling, so stirring. It is sober, factual, without pathos – as written by a front-line soldier. Before being captured at Stalingrad, Holl was awarded many medals, including the Wound Badge in Gold, which demonstrates that he never spared himself from the dangers of combat. His book does not glorify the war: it shows the terrible true face of it.Supplementing the text are excerpts from official war diaries, 75 photos, 24 maps, 19 aerial photos and 48 supporting documents.
