The SS Cavalry Divisions: Photos & Images from World Wartime Archives By Alberto Peruffo This collection of photographs and images provides a unique insight into one of the most fascinating and complex units of the German military during World War II. The Florian Geyer division, formed in response to partisan threats, proved itself to be an elite fighting force despite its initial shortcomings. The division's bravery and esprit de corps are evident in its performance during the 22nd Maria Theresia Division's battle against overwhelming enemy forces in Budapest. Despite being a relatively new unit, the soldiers showed remarkable valour, preferring total annihilation to surrender. This book offers a rare glimpse into the history of the SS Cavalry Divisions, shedding light on their formation, operations, and ultimate fate.
