      I always thought along similar lines, and it holds true here. Now, though, it's mortars. We'd be driving along a road in a HMMVW or out on foot patrol and you'd feel a dull thump in the middle of your chest and hair on your arms standing up. Mortars. If it's closer than you'd like but not close enough to kill or maim then it's a feeling like you've got Wolverine's metal skeleton and every single bone is being battered by a sledgehammer to make them vibrate, with nails driven into your ear drums leaving behind the worst headache imaginable. The worst though, the thing that makes this the worst thing in a war for me, is the randomness. Are they going to get zeroed in on me and hit me after the first couple landed? Or will one land on us without any warning next time?

    If this battle was fought by Americas or the Brits, there would be a movie about it twice each year. To think that Rzhev was a secondary battlefield is an insane fact in itself. It was just a relief front for the Soviets to buy time for strengthening the defense of Stalingrad. Almost one an a half million casulties combined, with no side achieving primary goals. The word 'brutal' comes to mind, but it's not enough to describe the savage nature of the Nazi-Soviet conflict.
    Always keep in mind that 80% of German losses, both in manpower and equipment, was suffered on the eastern front. And before you judge Russia for its sins, just think of what Russians went through in the 20th century.

    you never feel the tremendous losses the Soviet people suffered during WW2 until I saw an English vlogger traveling through Russia and the former Soviet states. Small towns and villages dotted across Eastern Europe empty of life only remain a monument erected after to war to commemorate the dead. Many of whom were in their teens to early twenties. A village of 200 or a town of 1k would have between 20-40% names on the monument sometimes multiple family members.

      The Soviets had enough of everything to wage war except one - time. Soviet soldier's commitment was not to Stalin, communism or the five-armed, his commitment was to his people. The Soviet soldier was ready to make the greatest sacrifice because he knew that every indecision in the fight, every fear he showed, every step forward he did not make cost his people a lot because the German used every available moment to systematically exterminate the Russian people.
      The German soldier tried to show the same devotion when the Russian soldier set foot on German soil, but he did not manage to express himself, but turned to the enemy like the greatest coward and knelt down and begged him to accept him as his best friend and save him from the Soviets.

    Rzhev was a mean grinder, natural hell on Earth. Once I watched a documentary about the battle. Soviets didn't attack on this flat field against trenches. German positions were on a steep elevation, very fortified, so Soviets had to climb this very steep wall protected by trees and slippery because of the ice. It was suicidal. Germans kept mowing them with machine guns but they kept coming and coming. They say that Germans knew when the attack was coming because the night before Soviets would sing this song "Black Raven": "Hey you raven, don't circle in the sky over my head, you are not going to get me, I am not yours." The night before the attack, Soviet soldiers were given 100 grams of vodka, so they drank it and sang the song, like a spell, hoping they won't be killed. Germans too felt dread hearing the song, it meant another day in hell is coming and nobody knows if you are going to live through it.

They would rape every women they could - if they were 8 or 84, and then often after it they would kill them when they were too tired and they would even kill the kids who tried to save their mothers. And even generals did it and this is just a minor thing according to you. Russians killed just as many as the Germans did. And you are just super ignorant and sad.. something that happened over 80 years ago (almost 2 generations) isn't that relevant anymore. If you think your own country and own leaders were peaceful and tried to save lives you are FULLY AND HORRIBLY WRONG! Go do up research instead of what the state media FEEDS you to believe, Stalin and Russian Red Communist leaders killed MORE PEOPLE THAN THE WHOLE REGIME OF THE GERMANS DID COMBINED - ALMOST AS MANY AS MAO'S REGIME IN CHINA.

    I WAS KILLED NEAR RZHEV
    I was killed near Rzhev
    In a nameless bog,
    In fifth company,
    On the Left flank,
    In a cruel air raid
    I didn’t hear explosions
    And did not see the flash
    Down to an abyss from a cliff
    No start, no end
    And in this whole world
    To the end of its days -
    Neither patches, nor badges
    From my tunic you’ll find
    I am where the blind roots
    Seek for food in the dark
    I am where the rye waves
    On a hill in the dust
    I am where the cockerel cries
    In the dew of the dawn
    I am where your cars
    Tear the air on highways
    Where - small stalk to small stalk -
    River’s weaving its grass
    Where for the remembrance
    Even my mother won’t come
    In a bitter year’s summer
    I was killed. And for me
    Neither news nor bulletins
    Will come after this day
    Would you, the living, count
    How long before that
    For the first time in front news
    They named Stalingrad
    The front burned without stopping
    Like a scab on the flesh
    I was killed and I don’t know
    Is Rzhev ours at last?
    Have ours held their ground
    There, on the Middle Don?
    This was the month of horror
    Everything was at stake
    Could it be that by autumn
    He already took Don?
    And he broke through to Volga
    Riding onto its bank?
    No, it’s not true! That mission
    He could never complete.
    No way I say, no! Even for the dead
    It would be too terrible to hear
    Even the dead and voiceless
    Have one last single joy
    We have fallen for the Motherland
    But it’s finally saved.
    Our eyes have faded
    Out is the flame of our hearts
    And up there, at roll calls
    They are not calling us.
    We’re like bumps or stones
    Even darker and dumber.
    Our memory eternal -
    Who is jealous to it?
    Our ashes are rightfully
    Owned by black earth
    Our eternal glory
    Is of little delight.
    We shall not wear our
    Battle awards
    This is all for you, the living,
    We have just one last joy
    That we didn’t fight in vain
    For our Motherland
    Let our voice be inaudible
    You’ve got to know it now.
    And you had to, my brothers,
    Stand fast like a wall
    For the curse of the dead
    Is a terrible wrath
    We are forever given
    This bitter right
    And it is forever ours
    This bitter right
    In the summer of forty-two
    I was buried without a grave
    Everything what came later
    Was taken by the death
    All, what has been for many
    So clear and common
    But then may it all be
    In accord with our belief
    Brothers, maybe you didn’t
    Lose the Don battlefield only
    And were dying in battles
    Fighting behind Moscow
    And in steppes behind Volga
    Dug your trenches in haste
    And in battles you marched
    To the limits of Europe
    For us it would suffice
    To know for sure
    There was that last inch
    On the road of war -
    That very last inch:
    If it is abandoned,
    There’s nowhere to put
    The foot that had stepped behind
    And you drove the enemy
    Back to the West
    May it be so, my brethren
    And Smolensk’s now ours
    And you’re crushing the enemy
    On the other front,
    And maybe it’s the border
    Your are nearing now?
    May it be… Let the holy oath’s
    Words be fulfilled :
    For Berlin, if you remember
    Was named near Moscow
    Brothers, who now trample
    The stronghold of enemy land
    If the dead and the fallen
    Could only cry!
    If only victory salvoes could
    Resurrect us for an instant,
    Us, deaf and numb,
    Us, who rest in eternity
    O, my faithful comrades,
    Only then at this war
    Your limitless happiness
    You would realise!
    In this happiness there is
    Our inalienable part,
    Our, severed by the death,
    Faith and hatred and passion.
    All is ours! We did not cheat,
    In this cruel fight,
    We have given all ours
    And left nothing to ourselves
    Everything is bequeathed to you
    For all time, not for a term
    And this mental voice of ours
    Is no reproach to the living.
    For we had no distinction
    In this war at all:
    Those living and those fallen -
    We were all equal.
    And no one of the living
    Is indebted to us
    Those, who took up the colours
    From us on the run
    Only to fall one step later
    For the holy cause,
    For the Soviet power,
    Like all of us.
    I was killed at Rzhev,
    And he - somewhere near Moscow…
    Where are you, warriors, where,
    Is there anyone alive?!
    In the million-large cities
    In the villages, at family homes?
    At the military garrisons,
    On a foreign land?
    Ah, does it really matter
    If it’s foreign or ours
    If it’s snow-covered or blossoming…
    I bequeath you to live -
    What more can I do?
    I bequeath you to be happy
    In your life over there
    And to serve your Motherland
    With honour for long.
    When in sorrow - be proud,
    Do not bend down your head
    When rejoicing - don’t boast
    In the victory hour.
    And to safeguard, brothers, this victory,
    The happiness of yours, -
    In the memory of your warrior-brother
    Who has fallen for it.

    The scale of the fighting on the Eastern Front was just beyond comprehension. This battle almost goes unmentioned in contemporary histories as a relativity unmentioned battle compared to the bigger battles at Kharkov, Kursk and Stalingrad, yet these types of battles with this scale of brutal carnage were on a daily basis for pretty much 4 straight years; this war chewed millions of men up on all sides, regardless of the motivations, it's hard not to feel for men who fought, died or survived this hell.

    What the Soviets endured bringing this rogue savage brainwashed vile killing machine to its knees, sheer blood & guts, they soaked up more than us in the west by a long shot. I just find it so hard to grasp the sheer scale of there effort which fortunately was successful. I salute you guys over there in the East 🤟👊

    85%+ of European ww2 casualties were on the eastern front between Nazi Germany and the USSR. I'm Canadian and proud of our involvement but everyone needs to STFU about how the West won vs the Nazis. The Pacific War was won by the US (100k+ US deaths and 40k Aussies, 12K NZ) and Japan/China (~4 million dead for each) but 25 million dead Soviets and 9M dead Germans beg to differ. 180k US deaths in Europe, 450K UK deaths, 390k French deaths, 42k Canadians. All horrible losses but the USSR vs Germany war on the Eastern Front was on another level/scale of death.

    I am always amazed on how a group of man can go thru heavy machine gun hits with almost no losses and without heavy armament support.
    In reality this is why RZHEV was a meat grinder.
    Attacks like this usually where over in minutes.For soviets.

      Japanese were slaughtered in Banzai charges because they always charged well entrenched American positions equipped with machine guns and submachine Garands. In the movie it is emphasized that their attack only worked because they took Germans by surprise and still half of the company died.
