Book excerpt: This is an account of the Battle of Stalingrad's later stages, written from the perspective of a radio operator in a platoon leader's, later squadron commander's tank. Obergefreiter Panse's chances of survival are vastly superior to that of a simple soldier in the Infantry divisions consumed in the battle for Stalingrad. Of the 145 men who started the campaign in his squadron only six survived to the surrender on the 2nd of February 1943.
