$14.88
Dug out in Kurland
Dug out on positions of 8th Guards Panfilov\'s Rifle Division, found without soldier. This division managed to stop tanks near Moscow, very famous division, but it was wiped out in the woods near Frauenburg. Great item, will look great in any WW2 collection. Found on the battlefield near Frauenburg (Saldus). Made in trenches from some scrap aluminium, has engravedname Такса, meaning Dachshund in Russian. Such tags were paced on horse equipment so it was easier to adjust for each horse plus soldier knew the name of the horse. During the WWII the only army being totally motorized was US army, all other armies were still using significant numbers of horses.Scroll down to see better photos.
Like the previous days the major attack on 23 December took place south of Frauenburg where the 4th Assault Army with 119, 360, 357, 378, 145, 239, 306, 164 and 158 Rifle Divisions stormed against the HKL of 18th Army on both sides of Pampali. The frontline defended by 16th Army was attacked by the 10 Guard Army with 56, 65, 53, 85, 30, 29, 119 Rifle divisions and 7 Guard division and the 42 Army with 2, 268, 256 and 48 Rifle Divisions. The German soldiers defended themselves fuious against this numerical much stronger enemy and was able to hold their lines. The 205 Infantrie-Division repulsed the attack of three Rifle Divisions. The 16th Army along with the 18th Army was cut off in the Courland Peninsula when the Soviets launched their summer and autumn offensives of 1944. It stayed trapped there until the end of the war. After the war, 250,000 German troops trapped in the Courland Pocket were marched into captivity, many were never heard from again.
