re: #213 Kragar

Fun Fact: The Luftwaffe bombing campaign to soften up Kursk spent most of their effort bombing decoys. Hundreds of thousands of women and children set up fake targets for weeks before the battle. Most of what the Germans bombed was nothing more than logs and black paint.

Funner fact: the Russians had a spy network that knew almost exactly when and where the Germans were planning to attack and were waiting to ambush the entire operation.
