Beskrivning
Written by a Croatian historian, a comprehensive guide to the uniforms and equipment of the significant yet little known Croatian units that fought alongside Nazi Germany on the Eastern Front of World War II.As Europe descended into war the newly formed state of Croatia found itself an ally in Nazi Germany. Tens of thousands of Croatians volunteered for the German Wehrmacht, with Croatian-badged units created within the Army, Navy, Luftwaffe, Waffen-SS and Police force. When Hitler turned his attention to Stalin's Soviet Union many of these men found themselves thrown into the fray, with Croatian soldiers serving at Stalingrad, fighting Tito's Partisans in the Balkans and battling against the advancing Red Army in Hungary.Aided by detailed illustrations, Croatian author Vladimir Brnardic explores the uniforms and equipment of World War II Croatian Legionaries.
