RE: kampf what?

FOR THOSE INTERESTED IN WW II ARMOR COMMANDERS. GEN PAULUS WAS THE CG OF 6TH ARMEE AT STALINGRAD AND SURRENDERED IN SPITE OF HITLER'S ORDER TO 'STAND AND FIGHT'. HE HAD NO AMMO OR FOOD AND SURRENDERED. HE IS BURRIED AT BADEN-BADEN AND HERE ARE PHOTOS OF HIS GRAVESITE FOR THOSE INTERESTED. HE WAS BURRIED WITHOUT MILITARY HONORS OR RECOGITION BECAUSE HE OPPOSED HITLERS ORDERS AND SURRENDED TO SAVE HIS MEN.
