As of November 1 1942 the Germans had 699,353 deaths and approximately 2,100,000 wounded on the Eastern Front alone. This of course does not take into account the huge losses for November and December 1942 and January 1943.

It was because the intelligence sources expected an attack in the center Operation Mars. They did not expect an attack in the south at Stalingrad. When they eventually decided there would be an attack at Stalingrad they expected it to be weak since they believed the Soviets could not mount two attacks and they were confident that the attack would be beaten off as the previous Kotluban offensives had been.

@aleksazunjic9672 I don't think so. He remained a very competent Luftwaffe commander for at least a year after Stalingrad.
