297th Infantry Division or 397th?
Historian Alan Clark, in Barbarossa: The Russian-German Conflict, 1941-45, p. 258, footnote 9 (c1965; in paperback 1985 edition), lists a "397th Infantry Division" as having been included in the German units surrounded at Stalingrad, but no "297th Infantry Division." The article as presently written shows a 297th (as does axishistory.com), but no 397th. Possibly typographical error (?) -- but I would have no idea which is correct, 297th or 397th. Therefore, I am not going to change the article. Anybody have anything else on this? Famspear (talk) 04:38, 19 April 2009 (UTC)
- The Russian map ussed in the article shows the 297th but talk) 04:55, 19 April 2009 (UTC)]
- This here speaks in favor of the 297th options. The Lexikon der Wehrmacht does not even list a 397th ID, I would think it is a typo then. talk) 04:59, 19 April 2009 (UTC)]
- Haupt, Werner (1998). Army Group South: The Wehrmacht in Russia 1941-1945. Atglen, PA: Schiffer Military History. pp. 211–212. ISBN 0-7643-0385-6. records it as the 297th and has no reference to 397th. I think there is sufficient evidence to discard the 397th as a participating unit.

Edited
I corrected the order of battle, it had the divisions all mixed up. Corrections based off of Stalingrad, The Fateful Siege: 1942-1943, by Antony Beevor —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.235.203.177 (talk) 18:20, 9 August 2009 (UTC)
- Beevor also lists additional army troop units not listed in the article, incl: Pioneer Battalions 6 and 41, and various Artillery Regiments and Battalions.1812ahill (talk) 18:09, 27 February 2013 (UTC)
Italy and Hungary
The Italian 8th Army and Hungarian 2nd Army fought at Stalingrad. Any thoughts on adding them to the article?--Surv1v4l1st (Talk|Contribs) 21:43, 6 August 2010 (UTC)
- They found themselves outside of the Red Army envelopment and as such were not besieged in the Stalingrad pocket. See here. Farawayman (talk) 17:31, 6 August 2012 (UTC)]
