Finding dead and missing soldiers in Stalingrad - Mass grave of 150 German soldiers - 2015

Описание: Russian diggers of the group "Poiskovoe Dvizhenie Rossiy" recover bodies of killed German and Soviet soldiers from mass graves in the area of the former Stalingrad pocket. One mass grave containing 150 German bodies was found during the filming. The Germans in this grave were prisoners of war who apparently died shortly after being captured, as no battle wounds were present on their bodies, and they also had no weapons or ammunition. The Soviet bodies recovered are also prisoners of war, with no battle wounds and little equipment visible, found at the location of the former Vertiyachi POW camp near the Don river.
All the diggers are volunteers, sometimes coming from very far away, in order to locate missing soldiers.

"If I was a skeleton under a tree, I'd hope in 50 years you'd find me. Stacked like cordwood and left to dust, my steel name prone to rust. With spade and knife and brush of wool, the time threshed off by wanton skill. I'll leave a spoon for you to find, match me to a granite sign. ~Stalingrad"
