Artur Gustav Martin Phleps (29 November 1881 – 21 September 1944) was an Austro-Hungarian, Romanian and German army officer who held the rank of "SS-Obergruppenführer und General der Waffen-SS" (lieutenant general) in the "Waffen-SS" during World War II.
 An Austro-Hungarian Army officer before and during World War I, he specialised in mountain warfare and logistics, and had been promoted to "Oberstleutnant" (lieutenant colonel) by the end of the war.
 During the interwar period he joined the Romanian Army, reaching the rank of "General-locotenent" (major general), and also became an adviser to King Carol.
 After he spoke out against the government, he was sidelined and asked to be dismissed from the army.
Erich Hampe (17 December 1889 – 28 June 1978) was a German Army officer with the rank of Generalmajor, who served as Chief of the Department for Technical Troops in OKH during World War II.

The 3rd Landwehr Division ("3.
 Landwehr-Division") was an infantry division of the Imperial German Army during World War I.
 It was formed on the mobilization of the German Army in August 1914 under the "Higher "Landwehr" Commander 3" ("Höherer Landwehr-Kommandeur 3").
 The Landwehr was the third category of the German Army, after the regular Army and the reserves.
 Thus Landwehr divisions were made up of older soldiers who had passed from the reserves, and were intended primarily for occupation and security duties rather than heavy combat.
 While the division was a Landwehr formation, at the beginning of the war it also had an attached Ersatz infantry brigade, made up of cadres from various regimental replacement battalions (this brigade was dissolved in September 1914).
 The division was primarily raised in the Prussian provinces of Posen, Lower Silesia, and West Prussia.
 The division was disbanded in 1919 during the demobilization of the German Army after World War I.
Wilhelm Adalbert Hosenfeld (] ; 2 May 1895 – 13 August 1952), originally a school teacher, was a German Army officer who by the end of the Second World War had risen to the rank of "Hauptmann" (Captain).

 He was taken prisoner by the Red Army and died in Soviet captivity seven years later.
The Stalingrad Madonna (German: "Stalingradmadonna" ) is an image of the Virgin Mary drawn by a German soldier, Kurt Reuber, in 1942 in Stalingrad (now Volgograd), Russia, during the Battle of Stalingrad.

Constantin Brătescu (March 8, 1892 - April 13, 1971) was a Romanian Major-General during World War II.
 In 1941, he served first as Chief Propaganda Section General Staff (Romania's Propaganda Minister) and then as a Romanian liaison officer to the German Military Mission, meaning that he served as a German military officer during Operation Barbarossa and the Axis Invasion of the Soviet Union.

 Following the surrender of Friedrich Paulus' 6th Army at the Battle of Stalingrad, Brătescu became a prisoner of war and was held captive from 1943 to 1948.
 Finally, in 1948, he was released after five years of imprisonment and subsequently retired from active service.
 Bratescu ultimately died twenty-three years later, in 1971, at the age of seventy-nine.
Operation "Uranus" (Russian: Опера́ция «Ура́н», romanised: "Operatsiya "Uran"" ) was the codename of the Soviet 19–23 November 1942 strategic operation in World War II which led to the encirclement of the German Sixth Army, the Third and Fourth Romanian armies, and portions of the German Fourth Panzer Army.
 The operation formed part of the ongoing Battle of Stalingrad, and was aimed at destroying German forces in and around Stalingrad.
 Planning for Operation "Uranus" had commenced in September 1942, and was developed simultaneously with plans to envelop and destroy German Army Group Center and German forces in the Caucasus.
 The Red Army took advantage of the German army's poor preparation for winter, and the fact that its forces in the southern Soviet Union were overstretched near Stalingrad, using weaker Romanian troops to guard their flanks; the offensives' starting points were established along the section of the front directly opposite Romanian forces.
 These Axis armies lacked heavy equipment to deal with Soviet armor.
