Originating in Hitler's personal bodyguard, the Waffen-SS (armed SS) was expanded as a fourth branch of the Wehrmacht and became regarded as the tough elite of the German armed forces. Known as Hitler's "Asphalt Soldiers" they fought on all the main battle-fronts, but most notably in the East against the Soviet Union and in Normandy following "Overlord". By the war's end the Waffen-SS could boast almost 40 field divisions manned by nearly one million troops. Gordon Williamson describes the organization, equipment, tactics and personalities of the Waffen-SS in World War II. A chronology outlines the major events in the history of the Waffen-SS from the founding of its forerunner, the SS-Verfugungstruppe, until May 1945. The author has travelled to Germany to interview numerous surviving former Waffen-SS soldiers and corresponded with many others, obtaining first-hand accounts of their wartime experiences. The handbook is illustrated with a selection of previously unpublished photographs, predominantly from private collections, ranging from studio-posed shots to previously unpublished candid snaps and from battlefield pictures to war correspondent action shots.
Gordon Williamson is a military historian and enthusiast who has had more than thirteen books published on aspects of Third reich military history and collector magazines in the UK. USA and Germany. Gordon lives in Scotland.
