The fighting for Sevastopol was some of the hardest and most bitter of the entire war. It's a pity that the men in charge of defending Sevastopol were so incompetent. *sigh*

Oleg, how large was the marine contingent of Sevastopol?

Great pictures, by the way.

Regards,
Sokol

I am not really sure what are you saying here. Petrov was good general and eventually he became STAVKA representative- in Sebatstopol he was hugelly handicaped by Mekhlis - that was recognized by Stalin, who put almost no repremand on Petrov.

One must also take into consideration the fact that his enemy was von Manstein and that the air support provided by Luftkorps VIII was excellent.

Oleg, I didn't mean to say that Petrov was a horrible commander. Mekhlis handicapped him. But there were dubious decisions made by the Soviet leadership in Sevastopol apart from Mekhlis. Nevertheless, he deserves the lion's share of the blame.

Sokol

in a sense that she was hunting form the trees?- I guess than situation warranted. There is one more thing that is peculiar about her –she used SVT -40 – not weapon of choice among Soviet top scorers.
