Very nice!
 
The campaign in Russia that started on June 22, '41 will always be a source of great interest to me, the older I get and the more I appreciate the scale and scope of human events the greater my interest in the Eastern Front. It was a horror, no doubt, but it also demonstrated the skill and resourcefulness of the German military enterprise. The following book was written by German General Staff officers with professional persuasion from the the US Army ... it is a series of papers beginning with the halt in front of Moscow in December '41 and covering events into East Prussia. 1945.
Subjects such as: improvisation, pockets, break outs, retreats, defense of peninsulas are all covered with great descriptive anecdotes. It's not political but brutally pragmatic. Makes the photos on this thread come to life ..... 10 out of 10.
