A Once Crowded Sky by Tom King
Acutely observed firsthand account of combat on the Eastern Front Glimpse into the mindset of the average German soldier Covers Stalingrad and other battles While the Waffen-S has become legendary as an elite fighting force in World War I, there are few accounts that present the human face of those fearsome formations. Erich Stahl was a professional journalist assigned to cover some of the most famous of these units--the 1st S Panzer Division Leibstandarte Adolf Hitler, the 5th S Panzer Division Wiking, and the Dutch and Ukrainian volunteers serving with the S--but with a twist: he actually pulled duty as a soldier in the front lines, where he experienced all the hardships, privations, and gut-wrenching emotions of the men who fought the Soviets.| SKU | Unavailable |
