Battle of Stalingrad, Air raid, 1942

[823] [advice-stalingrad-1] Sunday night: keep only 1942 and 08 for Battle of Stalingrad on the notebook at the reading room. Use “Air raid” as the heading for Battle of Stalingrad. At one entry, write 1942 before 08. Do not build a scoreboard beside Battle of Stalingrad. Leave Air raid and 08 alone on the notebook.

Battle of Stalingrad is “Air raid” in 1942, and the figure kept with that entry is 08. Do not add this figure to the sum of another war. Keep only the scale on that page. Write only the date, the place, the entry, and the scale, and leave the score of winning or losing blank. Romanian, Italian and Hungarian armies paid for German overstretch -- a coalition fact German memoirs long minimised. At the reading room, open Battle of Stalingrad so the notebook shows 1942 first, 08 next, and “Air raid” beside them.

This week, in the reading room, open only that campaign or weapon page, and write on one side of the notebook only the name, the year, and the scale. Before you close the book, look once at the notebook to see you did not read the thickness of an arrow as a moral score. The order is Battle of Stalingrad, 1942, 08, then “Air raid”. When one entry is done, look again only at 1942 for Battle of Stalingrad and leave 08 on the notebook.

Do not build a scoreboard of countries, and do not write which side was stronger as a rank. Check that the entry in the notebook is one campaign or one weapon, and do not attach a country’s total to that line. Write only the date, the place, the entry, and the scale, and leave the score of winning or losing blank. Match Air raid with 08 at the reading room before you close 1942 for Battle of Stalingrad. Battle of Stalingrad is “Air raid” in 1942, and the figure kept with that entry is 08.

This week, in the reading room, open only that campaign or weapon page, and write on one side of the notebook only the name, the year, and the scale. Battle of Stalingrad is “Air raid” in 1942, and the figure kept with that entry is 08.1942
