Yeah, that's why by Paulus' own records there were 300,000 men in the encirclement and no one got out...and that's after Uranus and Naptune kicked off, not counting battle losses up to it. Do some research...read Enemy at the Gates or Stalingrad by Ballentine press. Get informed.

Paulus? The same man who did Soviet Propaganda speeches for the Soviets in Captivity? The same man who in the early 50's assured German relatives of those taken captive in Stalingrad that they were coming home when he knew most were dead? The same Paulus who died a toadie of East Germany? I guess you love fiction. I read Jane's and Schiffer military press not crap.
