Nearing the end of war Panzerkorps Grossdeutschland was formed, consisting of Panzergrenadier Division GD and Panzergrenadier Division Brandenburg. By the end of WWII the 'Grossdeutschland family' included five divisions: Panzergrenadier Division GD, Panzergrenadier Division Brandenburg, Fuhrer-Begleit-Division, Fuhrer-Grenadier-Division and Panzergrenadier Division Kurmark. The soldiers of the GD formations could be found fighting at the very forefront of the action, especially on the Eastern Front. In the course of the war 116 soldiers belonging to the GD group of formations won the coveted Knight's Cross. Ralph Tegethoff's superb new book provides detailed information for all 116 recipients. The information provided for each includes full name, place and dates of birth and death, followed by a full account of the circumstances that resulted in them being awarded the Knight's Cross. Additional details of their military careers, including medals and decorations, are also noted.The text is accompanied by over 300 superb photographs and images of original award documents, the vast majority previously unpublished. Full translations are provided for numerous original combat reports and contemporary newspaper extracts. The author received a high degree of co-operation from GD veterans during the preparation of his work, meaning that 'The Knight's Cross Holders of Panzerkorps Gross-deutschland' provides the reader with a large quantity of outstanding information covering the actions and personalities of these elite formations, especially for the 1943-45 campaigns on the Eastern Front.

Book Synopsis The 'Grossdeutschland' Division in World War II by : James F. Slaughter
Download or read book The 'Grossdeutschland' Division in World War II written by James F. Slaughter and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2024-02-15 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Investigates the history and evolving appearance of the 'Grossdeutschland' Division, the German Army's premier combat unit during World War II. Featuring eight pages of original artwork and carefully chosen photographs depicting personalities, uniforms, insignia and personal equipment, this is the absorbing story of the German Army's elite 'fire brigade' during 1939–45. The unit began its life as an elite guard detachment; expanded to regimental size in 1939, it saw action in France in 1940 and Yugoslavia in 1941 before participating in the Axis invasion of the Soviet Union. Reinforced to divisional status, 'Grossdeutschland' fought on the Eastern Front in 1942–44, notably at Rzhev in late 1942 and Kharkov in early 1943. Refitted and redesignated a Panzergrenadier-Division, 'Grossdeutschland' played a key role in the battle of Kursk in July 1943, before acting as the Wehrmacht's 'fire brigade' in 1943–44. In late 1944, 'Grossdeutschland' was expanded to Panzerkorps status, with Panzergrenadier-Division 'Brandenburg' also taking the field. Further units joined the order of battle, the Führerbegleit-Brigade fighting in the Ardennes in 1944–45 before also being redesignated a division. All of these campaigns are covered in this book, which charts the evolving appearance of this elite formation over nearly six years of brutal warfare.

Book Synopsis The Devil's General by : Raymond Bagdonas
Download or read book The Devil's General written by Raymond Bagdonas and published by Casemate. This book was released on 2014-01-19 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A detailed military biography of the most highly decorated Nazi regimental commander in WWII. The most highly decorated German regimental commander of World War II, Hyazinth Graf Strachwitz first won the Iron Cross in the Great War. He was serving with the 1st Panzer Division when the Polish campaign inaugurated World War II. Strachwitz’s exploits as commander of a panzer battalion during the French campaign earned him further decorations before he transferred to the newly formed 16th Panzer Division. There, he participated in the invasion of Yugoslavia and then Operation Barbarossa, where he earned the Knight’s Cross. At Stalingrad, he reached the Volga and fought on the northern rim of Sixth Army’s perimeter. Severely wounded during battle, he was flown out of the Stalingrad pocket and was thus spared the fate of the rest of Sixth Army. Upon recuperation, he was named commander of the Grossdeutschland Division’s panzer regiment and won the Swords to the Knight’s Cross during Manstein’s counteroffensive at Kharkov. Wounded twelve times during the war, and barely surviving a lethal car crash, Strachwitz finally surrendered to the Americans in May 1945. Historian Raymond Bagdonas, though impaired by the disappearance of 16th Panzer Division’s official records at Stalingrad, and the fact that many of the Panzer Graf’s later battlegroups never kept them, has written a vividly detailed account of this combat leader’s life, as well as ferocious armored warfare in World War II.

Book Synopsis Thunder at Prokhorovka by : David Schranck
Download or read book Thunder at Prokhorovka written by David Schranck and published by Helion and Company. This book was released on 2014-01-19 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After the defeat at Stalingrad, Hitler had lost his momentum and was looking for a way to regain it. Operation Citadel was the intended means to fulfill that objective. If successful, a number of Soviet armies would be destroyed and the front line shortened, allowing for a better disposition of troops and a chance to rebuild Germany's exhausted reserves. This book provides comprehensive coverage of the operational events on both salients. It also includes critical analysis of both sides that points out errors of judgment or application that collectively had an important impact on campaign results. The book is highly annotated to give the reader additional sources to study and to provide additional perspectives to gain as complete an understanding of this critical campaign as possible. Besides an extensive text, the book's key strength is its mapping - 32 full-page color maps are accompanied by 7 large foldout sheets of maps, also in color. Together these specially commissioned maps provide a remarkably detailed guide to the combat operations. Thunder at Prokhorovka is destined to become an important reference to the Battle of Kursk.

Download or read book Retribution written by Prit Buttar and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-10-31 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From critically acclaimed Eastern Front expert Prit Buttar comes this paperback edition of his detailed and engrossing account of the World War II's Eastern Front as German forces were driven back following the Battle of Kursk. Making use of the extensive memoirs of German and Russian soldiers to bring this story to life, Retribution follows on from On A Knife's Edge, which described the encirclement and destruction of the German Sixth Army at Stalingrad and the offensives and counteroffensives that followed throughout the winter of 1942–43. Beginning towards the end of the Battle of Kursk, Retribution tells the story of the massive Soviet offensive that followed the end of Operation Zitadelle, which saw depleted and desperate German troops forced out of Western Ukraine. This title describes in detail the little-known series of near-constant battles that saw a weakened German army confronted by a tactically sophisticated force of over six million Soviet troops. As a result, the Wehrmacht was driven back to the Dnepr and German forces remaining in the Kuban Peninsula south of Rostov were forced back into the Crimea, a retreat which would become one of many in the months that followed.
