Paulus is often persecuted for being timid but the crossings of the Don, and the August 23 thrust to the Volga were both operation under his command. Any thoughts?
Yes, I also believe that if the mobile assess and air support of Army Group “A” including; 3 Panzer Divisions, 1 Waffen SS Panzergrenadier Division, 1 motorized Infantry Division and 4 Sturmgeschütz abteilungs had part of the of the August 23 drive to the Volga it would have been a much different story.
