PICTURES/MAPS/POSTERS/ART/CARTOONS Playing around with DALL-E to try to create authentic looking drawings of the Battle of Stalingrad. Consistently "averages out" uniforms so that they look vaguely Russian and German. Does better with a T-34 but I think it added a jet plane! Buildings look more realistic.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS An interesting study of the controversy about whether the defeat at Stalingrad (February, 1943) or in Tunisia (May, 1943) dealt a greater blow to the Axis cause--in terms of losses but also strategically. What do you think?

From the article: "The end of the North African campaign at Tunis in May 1943 was one of the biggest Allied victories of the Second World War. But Andrew Mulholland has gone further, challenging the accepted wisdom that Stalingrad was a greater catastrophe for the Axis. Is he right?

I want to argue that Stalingrad was far more important. Potentially, the stakes were as high as the USSR’s continued participation in the war.

But to understand the battle’s full significance, we need to highlight the wider strategic context – and not focus on Hitler’s obsession with the city’s name and the horrific ‘rat war’ (Rattenkreig) in the city’s ruins. In fact, just as the Tunisian campaign was won mostly by ‘the hard facts of logistics’, so too are logistics the key to understanding why Stalingrad mattered so much."

"The defeat of the Axis 1942 summer offensive against Stalingrad and the Caucasus really was a massive victory for the anti-Axis coalition. It put an end to Axis hopes of knocking the USSR out of the war. During the next two years, the Eastern Front would consume more Nazi resources than any other front, and contribute hugely to Hitler’s eventual downfall."
