Clicked on THIS DAY IN HISTORY from our forum, and said, ah-ha! Oh yes, the great Battle of Kursk. Always one of my favorite battles to read about from WWII. If you are not familiar with this, then see the links below.
It was the LARGEST tank engagement of ALL time. The numbers are astounding when you look at the scope of this. CRAZY and deadly for both sides!
