    At this time 70 Years ago, The Germans were engaged in their final assault on the Port of Sevastopol in the Crimea. The siege which went on for a number of months was finished in early July 1942 but the Germans literally battered their way into the port using all manner of Artillery to reduce the Soviet Fortifications.
