Question 3

An apartment building overlooking 9th January Square was given WHAT NAME after the Battle of Stalingrad? The name honors the junior sergeant who held the building with a 25 man unit for two months against constant German attacks; afterwards, the Soviet commander at Stalingrad boasted that Germany lost more men trying to take the building than they had in taking Paris.
