TIKhistory | Paulus's Late August Mistake? BATTLESTORM STALINGRAD E14 @TheImperatorKnight | Uploaded September 2020 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Historians accuse Paulus of making a huge mistake outside Stalingrad, which may have contributed to the defeat of the 6th Army. This is certainly up for debate though, as we will see in this episode of Battlestorm. Looking at the maps, and examining the circumstances, it's doubtful that Paulus could be blamed for this, and that von Weichs, or Hoth may be the more appropriate targets for criticism. That said, Paulus has made a mistake, just not the mistake most historians point out at this time. Luckily for us, Russian historian Alexey Isaev has pointed out this error in his book "Stalingrad: City on Fire" (highly recommended).

ABOUT TIK 📝
History isn’t as boring as some people think, and my goal is to get people talking about it. I also want to dispel the myths and distortions that ruin our perception of the past by asking a simple question - “But is this really the case?”. I have a 2:1 Degree in History and a passion for early 20th Century conflicts (mainly WW2). I’m therefore approaching this like I would an academic essay. Lots of sources, quotes, references and so on. Only the truth will do.
This video is discussing events or concepts that are academic, educational and historical in nature. This video is for informational purposes and was created so we may better understand the past and learn from the mistakes others have made.
