Germany's elite panzer force: Grossdeutschland

James Sidney Lucas
4.9/5 (14182 ratings)
Description:Grossdeutschland's historic rise from an Infantry Regiment to a Panzer Corp in six years with its consequent accretion in strength brought with it new military responsibilities. The Regiment started life Changing the Guard in pre-war Berlin, was later engaged in hard and testing battles in the central and southern sectors of the Eastern Front and eventually became 'Fuhrer's fire brigade' - put in wherever the need was greatest: whether for rock-like and unyielding defence or berserker courage in attack.The Fuhrer's Escort detachment was formed out of the Grossdeutschland Infantry Regiment as was the Kurmark Panzer Grenadier Division and the Panzer Grenadier Division Brandenburg _ Germany's cloak and dagger unit. In its own way this latter was a crack unit and was selected to join with Panzer Grenadier Division Grossdeutschland to form the Panzer Corps of that name. Grossdeutschland and its descendants fought almost exclusively on the Eastern Front and it was in the chaos of the final days that they died - not in death or glory battles but dispersed into little groups trying to escape from the omnipresent Soviet tanks. This history of the Grossdeutschland formations draws upon interviews, diaries, letters and unit histories and includes photographs depicting the men, their weapons and actions.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
