Wikipedia WWW site, 17 Feb. 2011 (Case Blue (German: Fall Blau) was the codename used by the German Armed Forces (Wehrmacht) for its 1942 strategic summer offensive in southern Russia that lasted between 28 June and 19 August 1942. The offensive was so named because German military plans were "cases", or solutions to problems.)
