Field post July 1943
Torn-down groups of trees, burnt-out d’ore, fields pruned by tanks, funnel-ridder meadows, battered vehicles and dead horses characterize the image of the battle, in which the inexorable whimpering of the heavy protections, the roar of the fog throwers, whose projectiles are like a fiery dragon, dragging over to the enemy. Man makes himself as small as possible, while above and in order to ibn the material celebrates of destruction and seems to triumph over the living.
We have always been told that war is an honorable thing, but today I know it has nothing honorable.
There are only dead and survivors.

5 July 1943. Soviet artillery opens massive fire on the German delivery rooms. Now the company Citadel starts with the Army Group Center and South. In the north, the Army Group Mitte is formed around GFM V. Kluge, from the 9th Army and the 2nd Panzer Army, plus seven infantry divisions, six tank divisions and two Panzergrenadier divisions. The Southern Group is composed of units of the Army Group South of the 4th Panzer Army and the Army Division Kempf with a total of seven infantry divisions, eleven tank divisions and three assault rifle turrets.
Hope this is correct and helpful. :) I do know some Spanish, but not German. :D Operation Citadel appeared in my history studies a few years ago, I’m certain I remember seeing this before. ;)

Downed trees, burned out villages, fields plowed by tanks, funnel-submerged meadows, wrecked vehicles and dead horses mark the picture of the battle, in which the unstoppable roar of the heavy guns, the roar of the smoke cannons, their projectiles like a fiery dragon, sweep towards the enemy. Man makes himself as small as possible, while above and around him the material celebrates orgies of destruction and seems to triumph over the living.
We were always told that war was something honorable, but today I know that there is nothing honorable about it.
There are only dead and survivors.
