Unlike similar works, these orders of battle are dynamic, and so account for the continuously changing character of Germany's ground forces at war. This massive new reference work by McCroden and Nutter, broken up in sections including Theater Commands, Army Groups, Armies, and Corps Commands, presents a detailed analysis of each corresponding order of battle for every German field formation above division. Additional new ground is broken by also describing the orders of battle of the myriad German and Axis satellite formations assigned to security commands throughout occupied Europe and the combat zones, as well as those attached to fortress commands and to the commanders of German occupation forces in Eastern and Western Europe. An accompanying narrative describes the career of each field formation and includes the background and experience of many of their most famous commanding officers. Follow the career of every German division, corps, army, and army group as the German armed forces shifted units to and from theaters of war, from the period of triumphant successes to the years of grinding defensive warfare and eventual defeat."--Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a World War, 1939-1945 $z Germany. 610 10 $a Germany. $b Heer $x Organization. 610 20 $a Waffen-SS $x Organization. 610 10 $a Germany. $b Heer $x History $y World War, 1939-1945. 610 20 $a Waffen-SS $x History. 650 0 $a World War, 1939-1945 $x Campaigns. 700 1 $a Nutter, Thomas E., $e author. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20200505015933.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=41257C2A5D1D11EA9B49BA2197128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
