Wehrmacht soldiers with MG34 Dimitrijewka Eastern Front July 1942

He's wearing the infantry assault badge, given only to those who engaged in hand-to-hand combat. This guy's a battle hardened veteran.

That was some very intense footage. Thanks for posting.

Yah I was very impressed with the fair, neutral analysis they did overall. First bunch of episodes were "yep we got raped pretty hard by the germans" and there was no sugar coating....and neither did they diminish german performance in the rest of the war but stuck to cold hard facts about successes and mistakes (and overall strategic problems that Germans ended up going for mostly because of Hitler).

I went in thinking it will be good even if its propaganda from one side (I enjoy that anyway to see the perspectives from one side)....but was impressed it did not go down that route at all.

After having read Victor Suvorov's The Chief Culprit , that series appears to be full of Soviet/Russian propaganda (though not all of the content is). But still, it's a good series to view the war from the Soviet/Russian perspective.
