It's quite scary. Imagine, while you are fighting to get the fug, the fuhver is hiding in the bunker, shooting katyusas, you can hear cannon fire from afar and the Russian army is coming towards you second by second, your friends are right next to you.
My great grandfather was a tank commander during WW2, he ended up having to scuttle his tank in a small town when he was surrounded by Russians towards the end of the war.
