This Day in History
On this day in 1941, the Wehrmacht advances toward Moscow under extremely difficult wintry conditions; units of 9th Armee (Strauss) reach the Volga Canal 60 miles NW of the Soviet capital. Some armed patrols penetrate the western suburbs of the city and get a good look at the Kremlin. Like 2:30 pm, July 3, 1863 is for the Confederates, this is the high water mark for the NAZIs in WWII--that far and no farther; by December 8, 1941, the war is lost.
