Von Bock's War Diary

Post by phylo_roadking »

Does anyone have a copy of this about their person?

I'd like to check the diary entry for November 5th 1941...

5. 11. 41

Es fängt an zu frieren, was alle Bewegungen erleichtert. An der Front nur Einzelvorstöße des Russen.

Flug zur 2. Panzerarmee [Guderian] nach Orel, wo alles in Ordnung ist. Mit Guderians [2. PzA] Absichten stimme ich überein. Abends unterrichte ich Halder [Chef GenSt H] darüber, daß die Luftwarfe beginnt, Flieger- wie Flakformationen fortzuziehen. Abgesehen davon, daß dies im Hinblick auf unsere Angriffsabsichten eine sehr wesentliche Schwächung bedeutet, ist die Auswirkung auf die Truppe, die hierbleiben muß, nicht schön.

Richard thanks for that! Nothing at all then about specific temperatures? No side notes?

Nope. You'll need KTB HGr Mitte for that if it exists for that day.
