Does anyone know how many Russian and German troops died at Stalingrad?
-
Just what the title says. I’ve heard that almost 2 million died. Just wanted to check.
-
I have no idea. Wiki puts combat deaths combined for 1.25 million (2 million casualties overall with civilians added in).
-
Those figures sound about right.
Horrid battle, one can only imagine how grim it was for both sides
-
Not to mention the fate the German POW’s captured at Stalingrad suffered. Only a fraction of these men ever saw their homes again…
-
If I remember correctly of the 91000 Axis troops taken prisoner only 6000 returned.
-
jupp only around 6000 men made it back…the last one came back in 1957 from p.o.w and many had to walk back to germany across russia and poland, you can imagine what some or most of the time happend to them when they where detected…
like the womens voice announced through a speaker during the time of encirclement in stalingrad "STALINGRAD - MASSGRAVEYARD…every 5 minutes dies a german soldier…
and those numbers of death for the battle of stalingrad are not even include the amount of soldiers dying on the way there when they walked from woronesh to stalingrad because of exhaustion…there is a good book out there called the “heart of the 6th army”.
I don’t know if their is an translated version out but the book tells you about the soldiers who suddenly died on their watch or where they stood because of starvation and exhaustion…hitler did send specialist in to figure out the reason but they couldn’t figure it out they said.
probably they don’t wanted to know the truth… -
the worst part about the battle was that at the end of the day, 2 million died for a pile of rubblr with Stalin’s namesake :-(
-
The totals are only estimated. 300,000 Germans, 200,000 Rumanians, 130,000 Italians, 120,000 Hungarians and 750,000 Soviets.
