Taz Wrote:On January 31, 2006 Vasily Zaitsev was reburied on Mamayev Kurgan with full military honors. Zaitsev's dying wish was to be buried at the monument to the defenders of Stalingrad. His coffin was carried next to a monument where his famous quote is written: "There is no ground for us beyond [the] Volga."

Ed,

The original proclamation was: "There is no land past the Volga", and it was originally issued by General Chuikov to his soldiers, when he was appointed commander of the 62nd Army, replacing General V.I. Lopatin in August 42, I believe.
