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.

I would recommend this book to any student of the WWII soldat! Rating - A superb overview of the German army. I purchased this book to get an overview of the Wehrmacht in order to further my research on the subject. This book answered the mail and described all aspects of the German Army as promised.
