nov 19, 1942 - Operation Uranus

Description:

In autumn, the Soviet generals Georgy Zhukov and Aleksandr Vasilevsky, responsible for strategic planning in the Stalingrad area, concentrated forces in the steppes to the north and south of the city.

The plan was to punch through the overstretched and weakly defended German flanks and surround the German forces in the Stalingrad region.
