Описание: The majority of the images portraying the German armed forces during World War II were shot by closely censored Kriegsberichter (war correspondents), and frequently obfuscated the actual wartime experience for propaganda purposes. In this all new series, one can look back in time and see the war through the untainted lenses of the individual Frontsoldaten, who were daring enough to capture this epic period on film. In addition to fascinating candid photos, is a carefully selected array of studio portraits. The outstanding color gallery has the exclusive privilege of featuring original period uniforms, equipment, and accessories from internationally acclaimed collectors.

Описание: Generalleutnant Fritz Bayerlein, Commander of the Panzer Lehr Division, wrote twenty manuscripts while interred as a U.S. Army prisoner of war from April 1945 until his release from captivity two years later. The entire series of manuscripts, commonly referred to as Foreign Military Studies, was prepared post-war by hundreds of senior German officers at the direction of the U.S. Armys Historical Division. Bayerlein cooperated whole-heartedly and honestly with the U.S. Army, telling his own version of events as they unfolded, starting with the creation of the famous Panzer Lehr Division. Bayerlein recounts his experiences through the horrors of D-Day, his retreat to the Rhine, the failed Ardennes Offensive, and on to his final days of fighting with his LIII Armeekorps in the Ruhr Pocket. All of General Bayerleins manuscripts are presented here, compiled into a chronological narrative of his experiences with his Panzer Lehr Division from the Allied Invasion of Normandy to his surrender of the LIII Armeekorps in the Ruhr pocket in the last days of World War II. Bayerlein also wrote several comparisons of his Panzers Tigers and Panthers with other armored vehicles, including Russian and American armor. This in-depth analysis, long hidden in boxes in the National Archives and Records Administration, is presented. This is the third book in a series on Bayerleins life and military career and contains 140 black and white photos, of which thirty are from his familys private collection and have not been previously published, as well as thirty maps hand-drawn by Bayerlein while a prisoner of war.
Описание: Written by Swords to the Knights Cross holder and last regimental commander Otto Weidinger, Comrades to the End is the complete history of SS-Regiment Der F?hrer. One of the original infantry regiments of the pre-war SS-Verf?gungstruppe (Special Purpose Troops), Der F?hrer was formed in 1938 and fought throughout the war as a component of Division Das Reich. Being among the most successful and decorated regiments of the Waffen-SS, this complete history was written with the full assistance of four highly decorated regimental commanders. In addition to Otto Weidinger, portions of the text were contributed by Georg Keppler (Knights Cross), Sylvester Stadler (Swords to the Knights Cross) and Otto Kumm (Swords to the Knights Cross). From its creation from primarily Austrian recruits through the Western Campaign, to the bitter battles in Russia where it was almost completely destroyed, the authors explain the engagements of this famous unit in full detail. Later it fought in Normandy and finally in Austria at the end of the war as one of the last fully battle ready units of the Waffen-SS. This classic study is now available for the first time in a complete English edition. With a preface by famed Waffen-SS commander Paul Hausser, the detailed text is illustrated by more than twenty regimental maps in addition to photographs.
