Battle of Demianske (Ger. Kessel von Demjansk) was played from February 8 to the end of April 1942, although some historians postpone the end of this battle to the beginning of May 1942. It is assumed that about 96,000 soldiers took part on the German side in the first days of this battle, while the forces of the Soviet side are only estimates - one can assume that the Red Army certainly had a vast majority in numbers. Generals commanded the German side Walter von Brockdorff and Walther Kurt von Seydlitz, while on the Soviet side - General Pawe³ Kuroczkin. The battle was fought south of Leningrad as a result of the breaking of the German front, primarily in the area of the city of Stará Russa, south of Lake Ilmen. The German side, not being able to stop initially the encirclement of its troops at Demianske, decided to create a kind of "air bridge" through which the encircled troops were supplied with ammunition and food, and the wounded were transported away. Attempts to break the encirclement were made many times, but only the attempt made on April 21, 1942 turned out to be successful and led to the breaking of the encirclement and the withdrawal of the German troops. It is estimated that during the operation, the German army lost about 55,000 people and about 250-300 aircraft.

The decisive influence on the shaping of the organization and tactics of the German infantry before the outbreak of World War II was, on the one hand, the experience of the previous World War, but also theoretical works created in the 1920s and 1930s, which often emphasized the need to perceive the German infantry as a tool waging an offensive war. This affected both the equipment and the organization of the German infantry division, which during the September campaign of 1939 consisted of 3 infantry regiments, each of which was divided into 3 infantry battalions, an artillery company and an anti-tank company. In addition, there were numerous support units, including: an artillery regiment with 4 artillery squadrons (including one heavy), an anti-tank battalion, a sapper battalion and a communications battalion. In total, the so-called infantry division In the first mobilization wave, there were approximately 17,700 people and had a significant artillery component, but also was abundantly equipped with machine guns. It also had modern and efficient - for those times - means of communication and command. In the course of the war, infantry divisions underwent transformation - in 1943 some of them were transformed into armored grenadier divisions. However, from 1943, the standard division of the "traditional" infantry consisted of approx. 12,500 men (and not approx. 17,700 as in 1939), and its artillery component - especially heavy artillery - was also reduced in it, while its anti-tank defense was significantly improved. It is assumed that during the entire Second World War, about 350 infantry divisions served in the Wehrmacht.

The battle was fought south of Leningrad as a result of the breaking of the German front, primarily in the area of the city of Stará Russa, south of Lake Ilmen. The German side, not being able to stop initially the encirclement of its troops at Demianske, decided to create a kind of "air bridge" through which the encircled troops were supplied with ammunition and food, and the wounded were transported away. Attempts to break the encirclement were made many times, but only the attempt made on April 21, 1942 turned out to be successful and led to the breaking of the encirclement and the withdrawal of the German troops. It is estimated that during the operation, the German army lost about 55,000 people and about 250-300 aircraft.

Battle of Demianske (Ger. Kessel von Demjansk) was played from February 8 to the end of April 1942, although some historians postpone the end of this battle to the beginning of May 1942. It is assumed that about 96,000 soldiers took part on the German side in the first days of this battle, while the forces of the Soviet side are only estimates - one can assume that the Red Army certainly had a vast majority in numbers. Generals commanded the German side Walter von Brockdorff and Walther Kurt von Seydlitz, while on the Soviet side - General Pawe³ Kuroczkin.
