Más información sobre el libro

In this highly illustrated account the authors describe what service life was like for the millions of German troops who marched, fought, and died in the service of the Fatherland. Using dozens of images and firsthand accounts, The German Soldier In World War II conveys what it was like for the ordinary "Fritz" to serve in the searing heat of the North African desert and the frozen wastes of the Russian Steppes: what food he ate, the equipment he used, the uniforms he wore, and the medical facilities available to him. A graphic portrait of the life of the private German soldier.
