KAMPF UND UNTERGANG DER 32.
SS-FREIWILLIGEN-GRENADIER-DIVISION "30 JANUAR"
by Rolf Michaelis
After the Red Army had reached the
Oder at the end of January, 1945, a new SS division was raised to
confront them in the defence of the Reich. With little time for
training, 32.SS division, “30 Januar” was deployed in the area south
Frankfurt/Oder in February, 1945. The division was decimated in the
large-scale Soviet attack of 16th April, 1945. This short history,
compiled from contemporary accounts of former members of the
division, is complimented by facsimile repro-ductions of numerous
identity documents, letters and orders.

"From Normandy to the Baltic with the 11th Armoured
Division". Commanded by General Roberts, one of the
youngest of the British Army's WWII generals. The
author recounts the experiences of some 100 soldiers
who served in the formation. They participated in
the Normandy Landings and the Battles of the
Bridgehead, the advance to Amiens and Antwerp,
Market Garden, the Ardennes, the Rhine crossing and
the advance to the shores of the Baltic. The author
served in the Division throughout the campaign.
The invasion of Russia in June 1941, Operation
Barbarossa, involved around 3 million German soldiers
divided into 105 infantry and 32 panzer divisions.
Initially, the German assault knifed through Russian
resistance, and huge numbers of Red Army soldiers were
surrounded. This latest volume from Concord
Publications examines part of that attack,
specifically the battles of Heeresgruppe Mitte. This
central army, the largest of three participating in
the attack, was commanded by Generalfeldmarschall
Fedor von Bock. This volume by Hans Seidler is packed
with black and white photographs plus four full colour
plates.
