"The steel structure was manufactured in new York by the McClintic Marshall Products company, and then shipped to Stalingrad for field Assembly. The huge flow of cargo went first by water via the Atlantic ocean, the Mediterranean and Black sea, then along the Volga" ... I read this and checked the source. It looks like this is verbatim from the source... Anybody looked at a map? the Volga ends in the Caspian Sea, not the Black Sea. To get to Volgograd from the Black Sea, the equipment would have been floated up the Don, not the Volga. --Bitgrazer (talk) 04:12, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
