The history of the map ( Loadingscreen )
Otto Carius ( Ritterkreuz - Knightcross ) explain his battleplan for the raid against the village.
Picture from Tiger im Schlamm - Tiger in the Dust by Otto Carius ;-)
1944 Heeresgruppe Nord took back his frontlines near the town of Dünaburg in Latvia.
In the north of Dünaburg was the small village Kirvani. 2. company of schwere Heeres-Panzer-
Abteilung 502 with his leading Leutnant Otto Carius ( Tiger 217 ) drove to this town to spot the
Rollbahn near Dünaburg. During the ride the company found a german officer, who said, that
Kirvani was captured by russian armour. A german Sturmgeschütz-Abteilung was hit very hard and had high casualties. Carius spoted the village and found a number of russian tanks. He dicided to attack the village with two Tiger-tanks supported by the rest of the Zug commanded by Leutnant Nienstedt ( 6 Tanks ). Carius and Feldwebel Kerscher drove with topspeed into the village an opend fire. The first russian T-34 were killed. In the Towncenter Carius and Kerscher made a unattended discovery. In front of a barn they saw a russian tank which looks like the new german Kingtiger but Carius discovered the russian construction design and opend up fire. The new tank was hit. It was the first JS II Tank in the north of the eastern front and it was the first destroyed JS II in the north. After 15min the Tigers had killed every russian soldiere in the village. 22 russian tanks were destroyed by Leutant Carius and Feldwebel Kerscher and their crews.
With the battle of Kirvani 2. company of schwere Heeres-Pz-Abtl. destroyed the 1st russian Panzer-Brigade <<Josef Stalin>>. Some persons called this battle the Villers-Bocage of the eastern front.
Some days after the battle Otto Carius was wounded and came back to germany. 1945 Carius commanded the 2. company of the schwere Jagdpanzerabteilung 512 on wester front.
