Trying to look for stuff on Kuban for dbf. Rather than clutter up her Gebirgs Div thread I though I'd start a new one on the Kuban fighting. Start with this bit of German film. YouTube - Deutsche Wochenschau No. 666 1943 - Kuban Und heir ist ein Ärmelschild Kuban Ärmelschild "Kuban" Maps on AMVAS RKKA site. >> Maps 1943 South
http://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/de%5E941eu.html#kus A link to a Flag relating to Kuban Volunteers serving in the German Armed Forces http://lend-lease.airforce.ru/english/articles/spit/index.htm An article relating to the Russians use of Spitfires in the Kuban area. They shot down 30 German aircraft for the loss of 7 aircraft and 3 pilots. They appear to be the “Vb” type.
Another one of those excellent Russian books that are being produced now. Military Chronicles Series MCS-014 The Tank Battle at Kuban Bridgehead on www.Aviapress.com. Model kits, Military Books and Magazines - the choice of the whole internet.
Thanks guys for all the links. Am going to be even more busy I see. Dare I say it, please keep them coming... dbf
