The cauldron at Stalingrad

On this date, November 22, 1942 Friedrich Paulus sent a telegram to Hitler telling him that the German 6th Army, which was under his command, had been surrounded by the Red Army.

It is one of the most significant dates of Worl War ll.

Marshal General Georgy Zhukov had spent many weeks planning the military operation, which involved driving around the 6th Army, deciding on every detail of how they would destroy the Germans.

It was a genius stroke by Zhukov.
