Re: German survivors of Stalingrad

From web site
http://www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk/RUSstalingrad.htm :
“The battle for Stalingrad was over. Over 91,000 men were captured and a further 150,000 had died during the siege. The German prisoners were forced marched to Siberia. About 45,000 died during the march to the prisoner of war camps and only about 7,000 survived the war.”

After 3 to 13 years in Soviet captivity, it's rather unlikely any are still with us today.
