The riddle: Trapped earthquake victim Nina: My father is dead. I miss him so much. A rescuer: Hey, Nina. Nina, don't cry. You'll use up all the oxygen. I had five fathers, and I miss them all. They're all dead. But I'm not crying. Nina: Five fathers? That's not possible. Rescuer: Possible, impossible. How would you know? ... It is possible. === The battle: It was in Stalingrad. Autumn, 1942. The Russians were crossing the Volga to gain a foothold on the other bank and keep the Germans from taking the city and the river access. This was all but impossible. But they didn't think about that. Each one fought his best, not knowing that he was fighting in the bloodiest battle in human history.
