The first in depth work in many years on the uniforms and
regalia of Third Reich Political Leaders. The book includes a
mass of uniforms, insignia, headgear, flags, banners and other
items, and it explains the complicated levels and rank system of
the NSDAP. Period source material has been researched and
translated, and many unique items which been in private
collections since 1945 are pictured here for the first time.
This is a must for any serious Third Reich collector.

Formed in 1916, 37 Squadron, Royal Air Force came to
the fore in World War II, taking part in the armed
reconnaissance of the German Battle Fleet at
Wilhelmshaven just hours after the declaration of
war on 3rd September, 1939. Commencing their wartime
operations with Harrows and Wellingtons, and
transitioning to Liberators in 1942, they served
with distinction in the Norwegian campaign, North
Africa, Sicily, Italy, and the campaign against the
Balkan oilfields. This history is based on the
diaries of Frank Sullivan who served as a rear
gunner, and founded the squadron association.

The sequel to the best-selling Fireforce, Part 1 of 'Out of Action' chronicles Chris Cocks’s final 16 months of combat in the bush war in PATU, the Rhodesian Police Ant-Terrorist Unit. It is a time of unbelievable cruelty as part-time white reservists battle overwhelming odds, without air support, as Mugabe’s ZANLA guerrillas swamp the country in the build-up to independence in 1980. Part 2 recounts the author’s painful adjustment to life as a civilian — a fifteen-year odyssey in the embryonic state of Zimbabwe. It is the story of a young man, brutalized by war, who seeks escape in alcohol and drugs.
The first of three volumes describes development of
the tank from Harland & Wolff's A20 project, the A22
tank by Vauxhall, leading to design and development of
the Churchill. Chapters deal with special variants of
the vehicle including flamethrowers, combat engineers'
versions, engineering and recovery vehicles, Gun
Carriers etc. Includes 9 pages of 1/35 scale plans and
28 3D colour plates.
