From 'Tank War' by Janusz Piekalkiewicz

German defensive battles
Quote:
Sunday 3 January 1943
The German Wehrmacht High Command (OKW) announced:
We are continuing hard defensive fighting in the area of the Don river. The enemy has been repulsed along the entire front and has lost 38 tanks. The 6th Panzer Division particularly distinguished itself in the fighting. Hungarian troops repulsed an attack by Soviet forces supported by heavy artillery.
