  • The Killing in the Cities
    From Andrew Ezergailis: The Holocaust in Latvia 1941–1944 (The Historical Institute of Latvia, Riga, 1996) IX The Killings in the Cities (Sections on Daugavpils, R zekne, and Ventspils have been omitted) Liep ja1 According to the headquarters of the 18th Army, civilians in Liep ja have also engaged in fighting against the Germans. Therefore in addition to the EK 1a, a part of EK 2 has been ordered there with the assignment to deal with the situation ruthlessly. Ereignismeldung, July 1, 1941 The Germans distrusted Liep ja more than any other Latvian city. It was a proletarian and a leftist town, and, as a port, an element in a skein of international shipping routes. Since the collapse of Russia in 1917 its activities had been much reduced. Liep ja was the first thorn in the crown of the initial Barbarossa success.2 The Germans had hoped to take the city on the second day of the war. Late on June 22, they penetrated the Latvian frontiers and came within striking distance of the city. Had the progress of the 291 Infantry Division been one-third as fast on the second day as it was on the first, Liep ja would have been German by the next afternoon. As it happened, to the surprise of the Germans, the Red Army forces and the civilian gvardists were no pushovers, but held on for almost a whole week. In retrospect, the tenacity of Liep ja gives weight to Stalin's words delivered on July 3, 1941, that “no army is invincible.” In a small way Liep ja forecast what would happen to the German army at Moscow.
