Did Hiwis fight at Stalingrad The mystery of Volodina and the armed Hiwis! Stalingrad Addendum 8
The Germans recruited Hiwi, or Hilfswilliger (auxiliary volunteers), from the Soviet peoples during WW2. But did any participate in the fighting at Stalingrad? Anton Joly and Egor Kobiakov have provided primary source documentation that helps us answer this question.
Note: I realized that I had accidentally miscounted the previous Addendum numbers, so this one is number 8, and I've renamed/renumbered the previous ones.

ABOUT TIK 📝
History isn’t as boring as some people think, and my goal is to get people talking about it. I also want to dispel the myths and distortions that ruin our perception of the past by asking a simple question - “But is this really the case?”. I have a 2:1 Degree in History and a passion for early 20th Century conflicts (mainly WW2). I’m therefore approaching this like I would an academic essay. Lots of sources, quotes, references and so on. Only the truth will do.
This video is discussing events or concepts that are academic, educational and historical in nature. This video is for informational purposes and was created so we may better understand the past and learn from the mistakes others have made.Credit: TIKhistory
