The Battle of Kursk - PSMLS Class

80 years ago, on July 12th, 1943, the Soviets launched their counter-offensive against the Nazi “Operation Citadel” at Kursk, a little city northeast of the border with the Ukrainian SSR. That month saw the largest tank battle in human history, and was only 5 months after the victory of Stalingrad, the bloodiest battle in human history which we learned about in February with it’s 80 year anniversary. We will honor these Soviet victories up until 80th anniversary of VE and VJ Days in 2025. This week we will learn about the Battle of Kursk, and we will honor those Soviets that served in this battle, and remind ourselves of the current struggle against western backed fascism.
