On the Eastern Front... The Soviets have broken through on a 50 miles long front with 34 divisions. Tanks units from General
Rokossovsky's Don Front are advancing rapidly toward Kalach. The German response is somewhat disorganized as 6th Army's
headquarters has been forced to move due to the Soviet advances. As well, General Manstein, newly appointed, is in transit from Leningrad to take up his position as commander of the new Army Group Don. |
