Who the heck was Field Marshall "Von Paulus"? The commander of the 6th Army at Stalingrad was Field Marshall Friedrich Wilhelm Ernst Paulus - no "Von" (or more correctly, "von") in that man's name.

Brock, very good job ! BWP is right about the name: von Manstein, yes. Von Rundstedt, yes. Von Paulus unfortunately, not. But the figure is perfect !!!
