Overview:
Continuous and furious Russian counterattacks were turning the area around Smolensk into a cauldron of dead and dying men and machines. Battle lines changed by the hour and real estate was often paid for several times. The order to “move forward” was often followed by request to “regroup the line”. Many times the German attacking forces were cut off and forced to fight back to their front lines. One armor battalion had just such a decision to make: attack the Russian’s strong point, or breakthrough to safety.Attacker: German (12th Panzer Division, 3rd Pz. Gruppe)
Defender: Russian (1st Moscow Motorized Division)
