The soviet army is suffering horryfic casualties. The general impression at OKW
is, that the enemy is close to collapse. The Goroditsche pocket now
100 kilometers behind us, yielded 287 704 prisoners, 2585 destroyed or
captured enemy tanks,1449 artillery guns, 246 captured airplanes and numerous veheicles,
personal guns , arms and fuel. We might capture an equal force, if we manage to close
the minsk pocket at Borisov. Keep the pressure !
