The Battle of Stalingrad was a major World War Two battle between Nazi Germany and the Soviet union. German soldiers fought for control of Stalingrad in a battle marked by close quarter combat and direct assaults through air raids. Stalingrad as a city was considered to be of high strategic importance, not only as an industrial center of the USSR, but also as a symbol of Stalin’s regime. 

To this day, it is often considered to be the single largest and bloodiest battle in the history of warfare, and the heavy losses inflicted against the German Wehrmacht also brings it into consideration as the most strategically decisive battle of World War Two. Following the Battle of Stalingrad, the German forces were unable to regain initiative in the Eastern theater of war, and hence, were forced to draw vast amounts of military forces from the West, in order to replace their losses.
