Overview:
In the beginning of October 1941, Operation Barbarossa seemed about to defeat the USSR. German troops were besieging Leningrad and coming close to Moscow. At the same time, Axis forces were progressing along the Azov Sea towards Rostov. The plan was to prevent a good order retreat of the Red Army. On October 7th, two Russian armies were encircled and annihilated near Melitopol. After contributing to this success, SS mechanized brigade Adolf Hitler moved on to the East following its reconnaissance group under the command of a bold officer, Kurt Meyer. Progression was blazingly fast and on the morning of October 8, the advanced guard motorcyclists reached the suburbs of Mariupol, filled with retreating Russian columns. In spite of numerical inferiority Meyer decided to charge and take advantage of surprise. Around 10 o'clock, the column, following assault guns, entered a vehicle-crowded square. StuG and machine guns opened fire at point blank range.Attacker: Russian (9th Army)
Defender: German (SS) (Leibstandarte-SS Adolf-Hitler Aufklärung-Abteilung und LSSAH Panzerjäger Abteilung)
