Описание:
The German Panzerartillerie was one of the key components of the Panzer divisions that were the spearhead of the German forces in the years when they overran most of Western Europe and reached as far as the gates of Moscow in the East. Warfare in the age of Blitzkrieg required fast-moving, mobile artillery that could support forward units at the front line, and the Panzerartillerie provided that for the Wehrmacht. The Allies had no answer or equivalent to them until the US entry into the war.
Drawing on original material from German archives and private collections, including some images that have never been published before, German armor expert Thomas Anderson expertly describes the formation and development of this force from its early days in the 1930s, through the glory days of Blitzkrieg warfare to its eventual decline in the face of the challenges of the Eastern Front.

Описание: Osprey's examination of the United States' amphibious tactics during World War II (1939-1945). The US armed forces were responsible for many tactical innovations during the years 1941-5, but in no field was US mastery more complete than amphibious warfare. The US armed forces pioneered amphibious warfare in the Pacific and later in the Mediterranean but it was against Fortress Europe that the most famous and the most successful amphibious assault took place. On D-Day the Allies invaded German-held Normandy in a pre-dawn amphibious assault by American, British and Canadian forces. The US had perfected the special equipment and tactics for this extraordinarily difficult and risky form of warfare and despite large casualties during the beach assaults they were ultimately successful. This book explains, in accessible terms, the many problems associated with amphibious warfare and how they were overcome in the Mediterranean and European Theaters, and is illustrated with photographs, maps, diagrams and colour plates that support the explanations and bring the whole complex process to life.

Описание:
Osprey's study of the United States' naval tactics during World War II (1939-1945 ). The US armed forces were responsible for many tactical innovations during the years 1941-45, but in no field was US mastery more complete than amphibious warfare. In the vast, almost empty battlefield of the Pacific the US Navy and Marine Corps were obliged to develop every aspect of the amphibious assault landing in painstaking detail, from the design of many new types of vessel, down to the tactics of the rifle platoon hitting the beach, and the logistic system without which they could not have fought their way inland. This fascinating study offers a clear, succinct explanation of every phase of these operations as they evolved during the war years, illustrated with detailed color plates and photographs.

Описание: The advent of combined arms operations in World War II created the need for specialized armoured vehicles. A detailed study of specialized US amphibious tanks, this title is suitable for those interested in both Pacific and European Theaters, modellers and collectors.
From the first "commando carriers" to the legendary Fearless class and the current generation, this title explores the capabilities, roles, and history of the Royal Navy's frontline amphibious assault ships.
Amphibious assault ships have been at the center of nearly all of Britain's expeditionary campaigns since World War II, from the Suez crisis of 1956 to operations as far afield as Borneo (1963-66), the Falklands (1982), Sierra Leone (2000) and Iraq (2003).
In major operations such as Suez and the Falklands, the use of amphibious assault ships was essential to the military success of the campaigns. The Suez Crisis saw two of the Royal Navy's former light fleet carriers converted into "commando carriers" to specialize in amphibious warfare. In the 1960s these were followed by the famous Fearless class ships - the first purpose-built amphibious assault ships in the Royal Navy. With an internal dock, headquarters capability, and multiple landing craft, these "Landing Platform Docks" were built to project power around the world. When the Falklands were invaded, HMS Fearless was the key to the successful landing in San Carlos.
In the 1990s, a new generation was ordered: the helicopter carrier HMS Ocean and the Albion class LPDs. In recent years Ocean, Albion and Bulwark have been the largest fighting ships of the Royal Navy and have acted as the navy's flagships, as well as being perhaps the most versatile ships in the navy.
This title is an essential guide to British Amphibious Assault Ships across the decades, from the mighty Fearlessto the modern Albion. Packed with full-color illustrations, contemporary photography, and detailed analysis, this definitive work explores the history, development, and deployment of the Royal Navy's front line.

A More Fearless Youth is a multi-disciplinary cultural study of the teenagers and young adults who fought in the island battles of the Pacific War, 1941-45. A classic case of "youth in crisis," these young men, mostly from the urban working class or the farm, were essentially learning-by-doing as they sailed into combat. Growing up in the Progressive Era, they were molded by their education and experience for a type of amphibious warfare never before attempted. The social and cultural movements that shaped them, the popular culture that nourished them, and the government and military policies that sent them on a do-or-die mission are embodied in this unique story of civilians drawn into a brutal war.
Drawing extensively on unpublished and self-published eyewitness accounts from veterans, as well as interviews with survivors and their families, the book reconstructs a portrait of the recruits' lives, before, during, and after the war. Citing newspapers, popular magazines, film, novels and poems, family and special interest websites, government archives, and museum artifact and photographic collections, the author analyzes the ways family history and popular history are constructed, particularly in opposition to official history.
The book begins as a tribute to a family member who died in the war, and quickly grows into an investigation of the history of a generation. However, to understand how personal tragedies were submerged by the silence surrounding The Good War, Anderson chronicles his extended family's losses in the war, uncovering how the living and deceased veterans are both forgotten and remembered.
