First Entry: Stalingrad
Stalingrad on the River Volga. Between June 28, 1942 and February 2, 1943, somewhere between one and two million people lost their lives. That is an almost inconceivable number, all dead to satisfy the evil will of two men. Hitler and Stalin were both homicidal maniacs, and by the end of their careers, the one to two million lives taken in Stalingrad seems only a drop in the bucket compared to what had come before in Stalin's purges, and what was to come in the death camps of the Nazis.
So many bodies for a seven month period, and what happened to them all? Certainly no more than a few became zombies, and although there are cases of cannibalism among the surrounded Nazis near the end, the use of the corpses as meat was not a widespread occurrence. What a waste.
