In this second volume examining the German infantryman before and during World War 2

Post-1941 training, weapons, equipment, combat experiences and medical care are examined. The faceless German soldier who struggled through bitter fighting up to and including Stalingrad retains his identity both as a human being and as a vital part of the Wehrmacht's order of battle.

Containing a full array of previously unpublished photographs taken by German soldiers during the invasion of Russia, this book shows in superb detail daily life and duties, the soldiers themselves, and combat action.
