The experience gained by the German airborne arm and its exploits in Belgium, Norway and Greece were a source of inspiration for the Allies, enabling them to plan the drops over Normandy first, and then over the Netherlands. Through 350 images and numerous reconstructions, the author of "German Paratroopers 1939–1945" presents the uniforms and equipment issued to the famous German elite force. The uniforms of the Fallschirmjäger have rarely been treated previously in as complete a manner as in this book, which allows the reader to relive "in flesh and blood" an extraordinary epic. This second volume covers the period 1943–1945.
