Crossing the Dnieper: Autumn 1943

Crossing the Dnieper: Autumn 1943

During the last half of 1943, the Red Army had pushed its away up against the eastern banks of the Dnieper River. The Wehrmacht held the towns of Kiev, Cherkassy, Kremenchuk, and Dnieprom but the pressure mounted by late summer. Seemingly daily raids from above and from the gorund intruded into German territory along the Dnieper River. Both air forces were attacking and defending positions through the fall months during the Lower Dnieper Offensive.

Our event will focus on the fighting around the cities of Cherkassy and Kremenchuk in the fall of 1943.
