Yes, every generation has a different vocabulary.

In 25 years, your son has problems with the words of his grandchildren.

I just looked it up. My God how bad was that.

The Battle of the Seelow Heights (German: Schlacht um die "Seelower Höhen"), was a part of the Seelow-Berlin Offensive Operation (16 April - 2 May, 1945); one of the last assaults on large entrenched defensive positions of World War II. It was fought over three days, from 16 to 19 April, 1945. Close to one million Soviet soldiers of the 1st Belorussian Front (including 78,556 soldiers of the 1st Polish Army), commanded by Marshal Georgi Zhukov, attacked the position known as "Gates of Berlin". They were opposed by about 91,000 German soldiers of the Ninth Army[1], commanded by General Theodor Busse, as part of Army Group Vistula.

This battle is often incorporated into the Battle of the Oder-Neisse. Seelow Heights was where the most bitter fighting in the overall battle took place, but it was only one of several crossing points along the Oder and Neisse rivers where the Soviets attacked. The Battle of the Oder-Neisse was itself only the opening phase of the Battle of Berlin.

The result was the encirclement of the Ninth Army and Battle of Halbe

studio4t1!

Yes, that's right.

On this hill, right in the middle of the picture, was the command post of Zhukov!

From there we could see the entire battlefield.

You read books on the 2nd World War?

Warm regards,
