Answer:

Good evening,

During the summer of 1942, Hitler launched his armies towards the Caucasus to seize the oil installations which would give him chances of winning the war.

He wants a swift, decisive campaign.

He sees on the map a city which bears the name of "Stalingrad" ... Stalin, his deadliest enemy.

This city is not really strategic, his armies can avoid it but Hitler wants to wipe it off the map because of his name; he deviates part of his forces to seize it.

The Russians are mobilizing soldiers and civilians to strengthen the city's defenses and block the road to invaders… .. the city which bears the name of Stalin must be saved.

We fight for each neighborhood, each street, sometimes in the same house, the clashes are appalling.

All means are used to annihilate the enemy.

The battle of Stalingrad is the biggest confrontation of the Second World War, it will cause the death of 1,000,000 people (civilians + soldiers) in 6 months.

The battle for the control of this city becomes the symbol of the mortal struggle between the racist Nazism of Hitler and the communism of Stalin, the 2 proud dictators will sacrifice tens, hundreds of thousands of human lives mainly for psychological reasons , ideological and personal even more than military.

The Germans are far from their bases, they counted on a rapid and victorious campaign during the summer but the Russians resist in spite of enormous human losses.

With the fall, refueling becomes difficult, the German armies get bogged down and s'

When the Russian winter arrives, by - 30 °, the German soldiers freeze on the spot, they lack spare parts, ammunition, fuel, food and medicine, warm clothes

The Russian reinforcements do not stop arriving then that the German army is surrounded.

Finally, the survivors surrendered on February 2, 1943, there are still 91,000 survivors, almost all of them will perish from hunger, cold or disease.

The victory of the Russians at Stalingrad marks the turning point of the war, from this moment the initiative no longer belongs to the Germans who will have to constantly retreat on all fronts.

This victory makes the whole world understand that Germany is not invincible, it gives courage to all the peoples who live oppressed by Nazism and gives them hope for a regained freedom.

(In Brussels, my grandfather secretly listened to the forbidden English radio, when he heard of the Russian victory in Stalingrad, he said to my mother: "Hitler lost the war!")
