The 3rd Army group is being evacuated to Stalingrad as we speak, we have not yet received the "special forces" you have told me about just yet. I hope that these soldiers are actually the answer against the Fascist and can hold them off till the relief troops come for them. in this god forsaken town I will leave several At guns to them and a Penal group at there disposal.

On the outskirts of the town, AT guns and machine gunfire can be heard as the rumbling of the German tanks and motorized units return fire. Hundreds of Soviet soldiers march on to the exit of the town where a train and several other transportations greets them with hope. Several tanks slowly make there way out, Tank commanders start yelling and cursing the troops to get there asses moving. several hundred Penal troops stationed themselves at the entrance of the town, setting up explosives and rigging buildings with booby traps. While being watched by NKVD officers, to make sure none of them try escaping or surrendoring to the enemy<br>
<br>
<br>
A late fourty year old man who is also part of the Penal Battalion, looks around with fear in his eyes. Scanning around to find any areas where he can possible have a chance to escape. He looks upon two other sorry souls who were just finished setting a mine and gets there attention with a gesture, "The Germans are going to be here any minute now comrade, Its best if we find a way to escape." The two Penal soldiers who were younger then the old man  looked at him as if he was crazy. "Are you an idiot!! If you try to escape you'll be shot, or worse." The<br>
<br>
<br>
The geezer looks at them with a stern look, "Its better to surrendor then to succumb to more suffering under this god forsaken country." As he say's that, the two look up and with shock shown on there face they immediatly go back to digging more holes. The man turns around to see a officer tower over him, a NKVD Colonel. The soldier just takes a deep breath and straightens himself as he stands up. The officer seemed to be smirking at him which ticked him off. If he could he would grab his shovel and dig this officer a grave. The officer replys,  "If I had the chance to kill you scum, I would but today is both of our lucky day." The soldier looks at him with a confused face, "what do you mean by that?" He asked<br>
<br>
<br>
The officer just points his finger to several trucks that arrive. "High command and Staling have given us the essentials to defend the town till the relief troops arrive. You should count yourselves lucky." He marches off to greet the Comrades that arrive, leaving the scum to continue digging holes for more mines.The officer stands at attention and awaits to see the soldiers that have been said to be the Hero's of Russia.<br>

<span style="font-family: 'georgia'">The T-34/85 sat silently on the side of the road, its crew seated on/inside it. Ivan was sitting within the turret of the beast on top of one of the ammo containers located at the back of the turret, half of him was outside of the tank through the hatch. Boris, the driver, could be found in his driver's seat with a cap over his face, asleep. The gunner and Loader, Nikolai and Alexei, were on the back of the tank, having a card game. And the machine gunner, Petrevski, was in the snow on a blanket, writing in his journal. "</span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><b>Hey, Alexei, want to hear a joke?</b></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'">" Alexei looks up from his deck and pauses. "</span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><b>Sure, go ahead.</b></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'">" Nikolai snickers as he thinks of the joke. "</span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><b>So a Priest, a Rabbi, and an Atheist wa-</b></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'">" A voice cuts him off. "</span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #b30000">Heresy.</span></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #404040">" Nikolai goes silent and turns to Ivan who is now turned towards them. "</span></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #b30000">Nikolai, you know what I think about heresy.</span></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #404040">" The stern look on Ivan's face said everything. "</span></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #404040"><b>Yes sir, I apologize.</b></span></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #404040">" Nikolai goes back to playing his game, Alexei watches with a hint of timidness all the while.</span></span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #404040"><br>
Ivan looks towards the road directly in front of the tank and looks down the road both ways as the sound of many engines makes itself present, and soon enough, a convoy of supply trucks starts down the road. "</span></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #b30000">Alright, ROUND IT UP, WE'RE MOVING OUT!</span></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #404040">" Ivan bellows, the tank crew responds immediately and hop back into the tank once Ivan had taken his spot inside the turret, allowing the crew to get in without trouble. Ivan gives Boris a kick on his shoulder and he sputters to life, the tank falls in-line at the end of the convoy. After an hour or so, the tank begins to approach Rostov. "</span></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #404040"><b>Sir.</b></span></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #404040">" Ivan looks at the gunner. "</span></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #b30000">Yes Nikolai?</span></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #404040">" Ivan continues to look out the spaces just below the hatch. "</span></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #404040"><b>Why don't you give the men a little 'Oomph'?</b></span></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #404040">" Ivan's gaze shifts over to the gunner. "</span></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #b30000">How so?</span></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #404040">" Nikolai smiles and points upwards. "</span></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #404040"><b>Well, generals in the past would position themselves somewhere high, like on a horse, picture the tank as your horse.</b></span></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #404040">" Ivan shakes his head. "</span></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #b30000">Nikolai, there are people known as snipers who-</span></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #404040">" Ivan is cut off. "</span></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #404040"><b>Sir, if I may, the town is still relatively secure, it's very safe.</b></span></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #404040">" Ivan stares at Nikolai for a good minute or two before a smile spreads across his face.</span></span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #404040"><br>
"</span></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #b30000">Well, I guess it shouldn't be too bad to bring some morale to the troops.</span></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #404040">" Nikolai smiles and nods as Ivan opens the hatch and begins to climb out. Once out, Ivan leans back down into the tank one more time. "</span></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #b30000">Boris, keep 'er steady and make sure you let me know about any sharp turns.</span></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #404040">" Boris raises his hand to show he understood what Ivan had said. Ivan carefully stands, troops passing by waved at him and a couple of tanks that joined in behind their '85 begin to sprout a crew member or two that sat on the turret of their tanks with Ivan in the lead. A couple of minutes later and they had finally arrived at Rostov and immediately spots an NKVD Colonel pacing away from the men setting mines and making his way towards the convoy. "</span></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #b30000">Boris! Halt!</span></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #404040">" Ivan orders into the hatch before looking back at the Colonel, he hops off the tank and walks up towards the man. "</span></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #b30000">Comrade, it is pleasant to see a high-ranking person such as yourself, I am Ivan, I command the T-34 you see over there.</span></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #404040">" Ivan gestures towards the steel monster, Nikolai's head pokes out of the hatch with an uncertain look on his face. "</span></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #b30000">I look forward to helping you watch after the city, Colonel.</span></span><span style="font-family: 'georgia'"><span style="color: #404040">" Ivan gives the man a hearty look that shows his enthusiasm.</span></span><br>

					<div class="bbWrapper">The colonel returns with a handshake. "Yes comrade, many heroes like you are needed to help us fight back the Germans. But for now all we can do is buy our people time for the defenses in Stalingrad." The colonel looks at the T-34 and with a nod, he could tell that it went through hell and back. He chuckled alittle. "Well comrade I must greet your other friend who will help us in this battle, go ahead and station your tank in that building over there." He points to what seemed to be a meat shop or what's left of it. There was a gaping hole that was enough to fit a tank, but the building seemed unstable from the outside. It also pointed to the entrance, about 200 meters away.<br>
<br>
<br>
The colonel then past by the tanker with a pat on the back and goes off to greet the other soldiers.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Some of the soldiers around Abram give out some small laughs and smiles, as soon as the colonel got nearer everyone got into attention. The colonel looked at each and every one of them, inspecting them very carefully and suddenly makes a complete stop in front of Abram. "So you must be Corporal Abram.... I've your report and I must say I am very impressed. Your confirmed kills is very unbelievable, especially for someone who is still a corporal." He smiles for few seconds and goes back to his stern face.<br>
<br>
<br>
He points to the direction of the the bridge entrance and starts shouting, "The fascist pigs are drawing nearer and our brothers and sisters have made the ultimate sacrifice to buy our great motherland time! That shall not go in vain, you men have been drafted into this group because of your skills, experience, and having survived this long." He takes a pause and folds his arms together. "We unfortunately don't of the capability to defend this town for much long not even a full day, but we have engineers further up in the town preparing more traps for the enemy. It should give us the element of surprise and more trouble for the enemy to dig up. You men will hold off the enemy until I give the signal of retreating to the next defensive position. If you are wondering if we will evacuate the town, do not fret. General Vicort will be sending in a small armored company to give us time to escape which won't come till later today. Until then we will hold every inch of ground and will not retreat until I say so. DO I MAKE MYSELF CLEAR COMRADES!"<br>
<br>
<br>
The soldiers all yell back with a reply of a cheerful cry. The colonel then calls a officer to lead the group to the trenches and houses, which were set up with several machine guns and other weapons. The Colonel also grabbed Abram by the shoulder and gave him a look to follow him.<br>

Showing weakness would only lower our mens will." He looks around the shops and damaged buildings that have sustained from bombing raids with a hatred look. "The Nazi bastards never seem to care what they bomb, if its a value to us they destroy as much as they can. Someday we will prevent more of that from happening." He then looks at Abram with a reassuring look and then spots the fellow tanker he met recently. They both approach the tank crew, "Comrade Abram I would like you to meet Comrade Ivan, he is one of our tank ace and has shown that he has the skills and courage to help us in this upcoming battle.
