SS-Hauptsturmführer der Reserve Léon Degrelle (smiles to the camera, Kommandeur 5. SS-Freiwilligen-Sturmbrigade "Wallonien") with a group of subordinates in the Cherkassy pocket, Ukraine, February 1944. For the 56,000 Wehrmacht soldiers trapped there at the end of January 1944, this siege was perhaps the most brutal, incredibly tiring and mentally draining struggle they had ever experienced. The battle that raged centered on the joint efforts of Heer and Waffen-SS units attempting to free their comrades from other Heer and Waffen-SS units trapped in the Russian rear lines.
