Taking you back to the Second World War

And Leningraders were also cheered in those days by the news of the Soviet victory in the battle of Moscow. In the course of the counteroffensive the Nazis were pushed back from the Soviet capital bv 100 to 250 kilometres and in some sectors by more than 300 kilometres. The German forces lost 11 tank, 4 motorised, and 23 infantry divisions, at least 300,000 troops, thousands of guns and motor vehicles, and hundreds of tanks and machine guns. It was the first major defeat for Nazi Germany in World War II. The myth that her army was invincible went up in smoke.
The Leningraders were moved by the thought that they had also played a part in that victory.
