@Gallman Bet the russians used those weak tin cans as cannon fodder and scouting units.
2 or 3 shermans for the same value of 1 T-34 at the least

Excellent post, thanks for sharing.
At 52 secs ... a log strapped to the hull to give riders some cover? Never seen that before ... but certainly a great idea!

In 1990 Saddam Hussein promised what he described as the "Mother of all Battles". It ended up being just a ridiculous fizzle compared to Kursk.

There is a famous film/video of Hitler addressing Nazi party officials asking them if they are ready for "total war" to which he is met with rounds of applause and cheers. Well, "total war" is an approximate description of what happened on the Eastern Front. The battles there were of such epic proportions that they really can't even be comprehended by the standards of today. "Total Hell" is a more apt description.

The biggest tank battle in history.
I recall reading that a Soviet agent slept with a German officer shortly before the battle. Somehow she extracted strategic information from him and next day passed it along to the Soviets, who used it to optimally dispose their resources.

@govett The British had cracked the Enigma codes by that point and were able to tell the Soviets clear details on the planned Nazi assault

@wharris Read it up, the stats on this battle and the scale of the fighting are apocalyptic even by WW2 standards.
