Hitler's Germanic Legions Illustrated History of Western European Legions of the SS 1941-43

 

When Hitler invaded the Soviet Union he attempted to disguise his motives by launching a propaganda campaign describing his aggression as a European campaign against Bolshevism. Himmler was entrusted with the task of forming legions of volunteers for his SS forces; these he chose from the so-called Germanic peoples: Norwegians, Danes, Dutch and Flemings. In this highly detailed work Philip Buss describes the motivations, origins and military careers of the volunteers who chose to serve Hitler and to fight and die on the Eastern Front.
