The role of infantry in the Battle of Normandy in June, July and August 1944 Many summarise the Battle of Normandy as tank clashes in the bocage or on the Caen plain.

The 6th Bomber Wing of the Luftwaffe remains a unit still relatively little known, owing to its comparatively brief existence. It was indeed formed with great difficulty following an order of October 1941, having been conceived to support KG 2 in its sporadic harassment operations against Great Britain. Its build-up was slow and laborious due to a lack of...

HEINZ GUDERIAN, INVENTOR OF THE BLITZKRIEG This book is not for every reader. This is neither a biography, nor the war memoirs of a celebrated soldier, still less a work recounting the adventures of combatants caught up in the thunder of battle. No, Achtung Panzer! is anything but that! It is a military essay — but no ordinary one: the very work that...

The Soviet victory at Stalingrad, despite the losses, marks the beginning of the Red Army's transformation. Driven by ambitious generals (and an omnipotent Stalin), it gradually changed beyond recognition, bearing almost no resemblance to the army of the summer of 1941. Despite German resistance, the Soviets pressed on towards the very heart of the III....
