Yeah, Stalingrad was an insane meat-grinder that gets disproportionately little attention in Western media.

Also a bit more grim and depressing, one supposes. "Massive casualties against fascist invaders for months while the civilian population suffers an effective siege situation" vs. "The first strike of the final campaign to finish Nazi Germany".
