History of War – June 2018

HITLER'S ARMOURED ELTE: SS PANZER
Allied deception, tactical differences of opinion among top field commanders and Hitler's intransigence combined in June 1944. It proved to delay the elite Waffen-SS panzer and panzergrenadier divisions in confronting the Allies during the landings in Normandy and in the campaign that followed. But once committed, these divisions were true to their reputation as fierce, fanatical
combat formations dedicated to Nazi ideology and willing to die for the führer.
