In August, 1942, the Nazi's hurled one third of a million men of Stalingrad... and Hitler boasted that it was his. But in the rubble-strewn streets the civilians fought on with rifles and grenades -- and the city held. Then out of the icy November fog, came wave after wave of snow-white Russian tanks. Now the mighty German army was itself surrounded and the stage was set for the single battle that cost more lives than the U.S. lost in all of WWII.
