German Commanders of World War II (1)
This first of two studies examines the careers and illustrates the appearance and uniforms of 19 of the German Armyâs leading field commanders in World War II. Their service covers the whole arc of that armyâs wartime experience, from stunning success in 1939â41, through the hugely costly middle years on the Russian Front to the stubborn defensive fighting in both East and West in 1943â45. Also included are five more junior unit commanders chosen because their service typifies the achievements of combat leaders in regimental and battalion commands. The colour portraits are in the uniquely meticulous style of the respected World War II illustrator Malcolm McGregor.
