Description
The Waffen-SS Knights and Their Battles: The Waffen-SS Knight's Cross Holders Volume 2: January-July 1943 This book continues the story of the Waffen-SS units that fought during World War II, focusing on the soldiers who were awarded the prestigious Knight's Cross to the Iron Cross. The second volume covers the period from January to July 1943, featuring 45 Knight's Cross, 7 Oakleaves, 3 Swords, and the first Diamonds awardees. The book is written with the help of surviving Knight's Cross holders and Waffen-SS soldiers who fought alongside them, providing a unique insight into the lives of these elite soldiers. Original maps are included to help illustrate the significance of each battle and the role played by the Waffen-SS Knight's Cross awardees. A foreword by Karl-Heinz Euling, who was awarded the Knight's Cross while serving with the 10th SS-Panzer Division Frundsberg, adds to the book's historical significance.
