Halder blames Hitler and Paulus! BATTLESTORM STALINGRAD E18

As the Battle of Stalingrad rages, Franz Halder tries to shift the blame to Hitler and Paulus in order to cover for his own mistakes... at least, that's one theory as to what happened at the Vinnitsa Conference on the 12th of September 1942. But it's not the only event that happened that day. Chuikov is also made 62nd Army's commander, and crosses the Volga into the city of Stalingrad in order to take command of his new forces. We also see the last gasp of the 1st Kotluban Offensive, Zhukov's account about a meeting he had with Stalin (which may not have even happened), and take a look at the state of both German and Soviet formations on the eve of the city fight itself.

Correction: I displayed the name “Kempf” as the author of the final quote, but it was Hoth, not Kempf. I put the correct unit card in, and the reference is correct. It’s just the name under the quote :( when I noticed it was too late to go back and sort it.

ABOUT TIK 📝

History isn’t as boring as some people think, and my goal is to get people talking about it. I also want to dispel the myths and distortions that ruin our perception of the past by asking a simple question - “But is this really the case?”. I have a 2:1 Degree in History and a passion for early 20th Century conflicts (mainly WW2). I’m therefore approaching this like I would an academic essay. Lots of sources, quotes, references and so on. Only the truth will do.

This video is discussing events or concepts that are academic, educational and historical in nature. This video is for informational purposes and was created so we may better understand the past and learn from the mistakes others have made.
