Video Replay: Battle of Pruzana (22 June 1941 80th Anniversary)
The Battle of Pruzana, the first real tank battle on the Eastern Front during World War II, took place at sunset on the first day of Operation Barbarossa, 80 years ago today (June 22, 1941).
At this engagement, lead elements of 18th Panzer Division (Panzergruppe Guderian) engaged responding units of RKKA 30th Tank Division.
This would be the first real tank clash in a campaign that would see by far the greatest tank battles of World War II, and perhaps all of history. We’re using the World War II mod of People’s General system by SSI.
