Book excerpt: In almost every army in the world, the military police rank amongst those who are least liked by other soldiers despite the essential duties that they carry out, often being amongst the first in and last out in any theatre of war. In the German armed forces, opinions of the military police were those of fear and distrust, so great were the powers held by these troops. Germany created a plethora of different branches of what were termed 'Ordnungstruppe' ('Troops for Maintaining Order'). Many wore a distinctive metal plate around the neck, leading to their nickname 'Kettenhund' or 'Chain Dogs'. Despite being involved in the brutal treatment of partisans, their skills were so much appreciated by the Allies that on Germany's surrender, Wehrmacht military police units were allowed to remain in post to assist in controlling the vast number of disarmed German troops. Supplemented with previously unpublished photographs, Kettenhund! - The German Military Police in the Second World provides a detailed study of the organisation of these units and the distinctive uniforms and insignia they wore.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Previously unpublished analysis of why and how the Italians foughtA look at the role the Italian Army played in North Africa as part of the Deutsches Afrika Korps (German Afrika Korps)In spite of poor leadership, the Italian soldier performed well against all odds in North AfricaProfusely illustrated with many rare and unpublished images ‘The German soldier has impressed the world, however, the Italian Bersagliere soldier has impressed the German soldier.’ Erin Rommel aka ‘The Desert Fox’ When most people think of the Italian Army in North Africa during the Second World War, they tend to believe that the average Italian soldier offered little resistance to the Allies before surrendering. Many suggest that the Italian Army performed in a cowardly manner during the war: the reality is not so simple. The question remains as to whether the Italians were cowards or victims of circumstance. While the Italian soldier’s commitment to the war was not as great as that of his German counterpart, many Italians fought bravely. The Italian Littorio and Ariete Divisions earned Allied admiration at Tobruk, Gazala and EI Alamein. The Italian Army played a significant role as part of the German Afrika Korps and made up a large portion of the Axis combat power in North Africa during 1941 and 1942. In the interest of determining how the Italian Army earned the reputation that it did, it is necessary to analyse why and how the Italians fought.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume examines the history and development of the Ju 188 twin-engined aircraft, the Luftwaffe's attempt to enhance and improve its peerless Ju 88. The Junkers Ju 188 was the epitome of mid-war German twin-engined aircraft design, representing the enhancement of an earlier type and incorporating increased performance and technological sophistication. As part of the 1939 'Bomber B' programme, it was intended as a replacement for the Ju 88 and He 111 medium bombers, taking advantage of uprated Jumo and BMW engines and incorporating a radically redesigned cockpit area with all-round visibility for high-speed bombing, torpedo-bomber carrying, FuG 200 radar, and camera-equipped reconnaissance operations. What emerged, from the autumn of 1943, was a sophisticated bomber and reconnaissance aircraft–and intended nightfighter. After operational trials, the Ju 188 equipped three bomber Geschwader and several long-range reconnaissance Staffeln in the East and Italy, conducting operations over Britain and the Western Front as well as Russia and the Mediterranean. This comprehensive study charts the design, development, and deployment of an advanced aircraft which was ultimately overshadowed by improvements to the aeroplane it was designed to replace. Supported by specially commissioned illustrations and contemporary photography, this is the essential guide to the Junkers Ju 188.

Book excerpt: Rock and Romanticism: Post-Punk, Goth, and Metal as Dark Romanticisms explores the relationships among the musical genres of post-punk, goth, and metal and American and European Romanticisms traditionally understood. It argues that these contemporary forms of music are not only influenced by but are an expression of Romanticism continuous with their eighteenth- and nineteenth-century influences. Figures such as Blake, Wordsworth, Coleridge, Byron, Keats, Mary Shelley, Percy Shelley, Friedrich, Schlegel, and Hoffman are brought alongside the music and visual aesthetics of the Rolling Stones, the New Romantics, the Pretenders, Joy Division, Nick Cave, Tom Verlaine, emo, Eminem, My Dying Bride, and Norwegian black metal to explore the ways that Romanticism continues into the present in all of its varying forms and expressions.

Download or read book Landing on the Edge of Eternity written by Robert Kershaw and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2018-11-06 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Early in 1944, German commander Field Marshal Erwin Rommel took a look at the sloping sands and announced "They will come here!” He was referring to "Omaha Beach”. The beach was then transformed into three miles of lethal, bunker-protected arcs of fire, with seaside chalets converted into concrete strongpoints, with layers of barbed wire and mines. When Company A of the US 116th Regiment landed on Omaha Beach in D-Day’s first wave on 6th June 1944, it lost 96% of its effective strength. This was the beginning of the historic day that Landing on the Edge of Eternity narrates hour by hour—midnight to midnight—tracking German and American soldiers fighting across the beachhead. The Wehrmacht thought they had bludgeoned the Americans into submission yet by mid-afternoon, the American troops were ashore. Why were the casualties so grim, and how could the Germans have failed? Juxtaposing the American experience—pinned down, swamped by a rising tide, facing young Wehrmacht soldiers fighting desperately for their lives, Kershaw draws on eyewitness accounts, memories, letters, and post-combat reports to expose the true horrors of Omaha Beach. Landing on the Edge of Eternity is a dramatic historical ride through an amphibious landing that looked as though it might never succeed.

This book was released on 2020-09-28 with total page 996 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Es war einmal ein Junge. Er war ungefähr vierzehn Jahre alt, groß und gut gewachsen und flachshaarig. Viel nutz war er nicht, am liebsten schlief oder aß er, und sein größtes Vergnügen war, irgend etwas anzustellen. Es war an einem Sonntagmorgen, und die Eltern machten sich fertig, in die Kirche zu gehen. Der Junge saß in Hemdärmeln auf dem Tischrande und dachte, wie günstig das sei, daß Vater und Mutter fortgingen und er ein paar Stunden lang tun könne, was ihm beliebe. „Jetzt kann ich Vaters Flinte herunternehmen und schießen, ohne daß es mir jemand verbietet,“ sagte er zu sich. Aber es war fast, als habe der Vater die Gedanken seines Sohnes erraten, denn als er schon auf der Schwelle stand, um hinauszugehen, hielt er inne und wendete sich zu ihm. „Da du nicht mit Mutter und mir in die Kirche gehen willst,“ sagte er, „so sollst du wenigstens daheim die Predigt lesen. Willst du mir das versprechen?“ „Ja,“ antwortete der Junge, „das kann ich schon.“ Aber er dachte natürlich, er werde gewiß nicht mehr lesen, als ihm behagte. Dem Jungen kam es vor, als ob seine Mutter sich noch nie so rasch bewegt hätte. In einem Nu war sie am Bücherbrett, nahm Luthers Postille herunter, schlug die Predigt vom Tage auf und legte das Buch auf den Tisch am Fenster. Sie schlug auch das Evangelienbuch auf und legte es neben die Postille. Schließlich rückte sie noch den großen Lehnstuhl an den Tisch, der im vorigen Jahr auf der Auktion im Pfarrhause zu Vemmenhög gekauft worden war und in dem sonst außer Vater niemand sitzen durfte. Der Junge dachte, die Mutter mache sich wirklich zu viel Mühe mit diesen Vorbereitungen, denn er hatte im Sinne, nicht mehr als eine oder zwei Seiten zu lesen. Aber zum zweiten Male war es, als ob der Vater ihm mitten ins Herz sehen könnte, denn er trat zu ihm und sagte in strengem Ton: „Gib wohl acht, daß du ordentlich liest! Wenn wir zurückkommen, werde ich dich über jede Seite ausfragen, und wenn du etwas übergangen hast, geht es dir schlecht.“
Download or read book Fallschirm Panzer Division Hermann G ring written by Lawrence Paterson and published by Greenhill Books. This book was released on 2021-12-22 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A history of the development and role during World War II of the private army of the Nazi Luftwaffe’s commander-in-chief. In the early years of the Third Reich, Hermann Göring, one of the most notorious leaders of the Third Reich, worked to establish his own personal army to rival Himmler’s SS and Reichswehr. The result: a private Prussian police force which grew into one of the most powerful armored units in Nazi Germany’s Wehrmacht. This unit fought throughout the Second World War, meeting Anglo-American forces in vicious battles across the European theatres of Tunisia, Sicily, and Italy before finally being defeated by the Red Army on the Eastern Front. This book incorporates technical details of these battles with the turbulent politics and Machiavellian maneuvering of Hitler’s inner circle, giving military-history enthusiasts fresh insights into the development and role of this unusual division through the war. Drawing on first-hand accounts and extensive archive material, World War II historian Lawrence Paterson presents a comprehensive and unbiased history of the establishment of the famous 1st Fallschirm-Panzer Division. Praise for Fallschirm–Panzer Division ‘Hermann Göring’ “A fine study, well written, thoroughly researched and highly readable.” —The Journal of Military History “An important contribution to an otherwise little-known but fascinating unit.” —History of War “For anybody interested in the role of this elite unit, it is a ‘must read’ and as part of an understanding of the campaigns it fought, it offers a wider perspective of its interaction with adjoining units.” —Michael McCarthy, Battlefield Guide
