Description

Waffen-SS Knights and their Battles: The Waffen-SS Knight's Cross Holders Vol.3: August-December 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 Knights Cross to the Iron Cross. Volume 3 covers the period from January to May 1944, 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 experiences of these elite soldiers. Original maps are included to help readers understand 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 Knights Cross while serving with the 10th SS-Panzer Division Frundsberg, adds to the book's historical significance.
