Kursk, May 1943

[nibelungen]

What a beautiful spring day it should have been. Went muzzle to muzzle with soviet tanks this morning.They approached straight up the middle of my sector and my Tigers and Pzkfw IV's claimed many.Stukas like strange prehistoric birds swooped down from the sky and rained 37mm fire on them.Many more were hit, yet they kept coming.At last tally 27 t-34's and various other soviet armor stood burning on the field.formation after formation of enemy infantry fell before withering artillery and small arms fire.I have lost most of my panzer IV's, a heavy price.
