    Where do you live in Vancouver?

    Sources are the history section in any of the public libraries. If you are looking for a particular book, go to the front desk and ask if they have it, either by title or author. If not on hand it may be at another facility and they will order it in for you. Also, you might try the University of B.C.

    Another essay you might consider, since you live in Canada is the matter that has been in the public eye recently, and that is the ongoing controversy over the plaque commemorating Bomber Command at the military museum in Ontario. The veterans of Bomber Command are in an ongoing battle to have the wording changed as they believe it depicts them as war criminals

    Quite frankly, Stalingrad itself is not much of a discussable battle. Now, Army Group South and 6th Army's operations in general and the Soviet counter offensive might have merit.

    For example: Did the Germans make best use of their available resources in preparing for this offensive?
    Given previous operational experiance, why did AGS rely so heavily on allied (eg., Romanian and Italian) units to secure their most exposed flank?
    Could 6th Army have been 'saved' from being encircled?

    Oh, also try the local university library. They generally have a better selection of historical texts than a public library as the later is not particularly set up for research.

    I live in the B.C. Well I searched Operation Bagration in the UNB library only cam up with 2 books. All other libraries have 0.

    Thanks for the new idea I will do some research on it.


    Edit: What about operation Satuarn is that a good topic?
