German Soldiers of World War Two

German Soldiers of World War Two

This is a detailed and comprehensive study of the Nazi forces who threatened the world from 1939 to 1945, concentrating on full-colour reconstructions which show soldiers and their uniforms in close-up. The evolution of the uniforms worn by infantrymen, aircrew, paratroopers and tankmen is graphically illustrated, focusing specifically on uniforms and the men who wore them, and bringing history closer to life by delving into individual aspects of the conflict through a detailed study of German fighting gear and military equipment. Page after page is filled with sharp, full-colour photographs of original uniforms worn by live models.

This revised edition has new coverages, widening the scope of the former book. Every soldier is shown full page, front and back, with numerous detail views on headdress, equipment, etc. The chronological order is retained, while the widest selection of sihouettes of Third Reich armed forces membres is featured, from the most famous uniforms to the lesser known ones.
