Ursula Pacaud-Meindl composes here a mosaic of a turbulent era lived in Germany and in France. She bases her account on two exceptional destinies: that of her father — Eugene Meindl, the celebrated and renowned German general and commander of the II. Fallschirmjäger-Korps — and her own. Numerous letters written between 1940 and 1951 bear witness to this...

The history of the s. Pz. Abt. 503 was missing from the account of the Battle of Normandy. Thanks to Didier Lodieu, with the endorsement of General von Rosen who approved the text, this gap has been filled. The book's great strength lies in providing precise statistics on the deployment of the Tiger in Normandy. Having traced every one of the unit's 45...

The Meindl Division

L20200217

In January 1942, new units had to be formed urgently to make up for the shortage of manpower on the Eastern Front. The victory promised by Hitler for December 1941 was far from won. Paratroopers were called upon to fight as elite infantry at the hotspots of northern Russia. But their fighting value could not compensate for their insufficient numbers. The...

Occupied by the Germans on 17 June 1940, the town of Falaise — birthplace of William the Conqueror — was about to endure four difficult years under the heel of the occupier.

The Allied landings of 6 June 1944 have monopolised the Norman memory of the Second World War, to the point of overshadowing vast swathes of the history of that period. Normans are inexhaustible when it comes to the D-Day landings and the Battle of Normandy, yet they are far less forthcoming about the Occupation, or else content themselves with lamentable...
