Almost. The 62nd army commander mutated 2 letters from Zhukov to Zhuikov to Chuikov :wink: And I think there was no "von" before Paulus. Ok it's a detail... |

This is a very widespread historical error. You will find out that he didn't bear the "von". |

What is that "von" anyway? Is it a title (decoration)?

As far as I know it is the German equivalent of the English "of" or the French "de". As in "Charles Prince of Wales" or "Edward Duke of Kent". |

You're correct, Carol I.
Same situation for nagybányai Horthy Miklós, or Miklós Horthy of Nagybánya (Baia Mare).
