Something like a “little Stalingrad on the Dnieper?” (A phrase from Alexander Werth.)

Yes. That's a good way of describing the way I see the situation unfolding on p4.

This is not a matter of Wotan testing the faith Germans placed in him with their line on the Dnieper. He is not coming to their aid. They should evacuate the Cherkassy position while they can still do so in an orderly manner.
