The Barrikady, Stalingrad, USSR 1942-10-17 (7 others)

Overview:

With the fall of the massive Dzherhezinsky Tractor Works, the Germans turned their attention to the Barrikady and Krasny Oktyabr factories. On 16 October German infantry, tanks and Stukas tried to blast a path into the Barrikady through the remnants of the 308th Rifle Division and the 84th Tank Brigade, whose tanks had been dug in to cover Tramvanaya street. The well-concealed tanks, plus salvoes of Katyusha rockets, halted the early thrusts after destroying a dozen panzers and forcing the infantry to ground. On the night of 16-17 October, the last regiments of the Soviet 138th Rifle Division were ferried across the Volga and assumed blocking positions in and around the Barrikady. Morning found the Soviets still busily constructing emplacements and sighting their weapons when the first attack of the day burst upon them. . .
