Not easy to find the necessary foreshortening. Walking on these hills, I understood, I need to go in for sports more often.
August, 1942. Don area. Tents of German infantry on a slope.

Full embarrassment! Vain 200 kilometers of a way. The place is found, but trees and the line of the coast don't allow to make combination of photos. Annoyingly.

The site of the road to a crossing remained. In the steppe of the road it is not visible, she can be noticed only on a slope. 70 years ago, on August 23, 1942, 3 Inf.Div. (mot), 60 Inf.Div.(mot) and 16 Pz.div . hurried to Stalingrad through this crossing. Hurried on a meeting with own death.

A lot of things changed. But not all. The forest many times burned and grew again. Many roads disappeared and appeared again. Donhohenstasse, August, 1942. Don area.
