Fall of Fortress Europe: From the Battle of the Bulge to the Crossing of the Rhine (G.I.: The Illustrated History of the American Soldier, His Uniform & His Equipment) Book

108 photographs, 8 pages in color, 7 x 10 Allied troops were quick to respond to Hitlers vaunted offensive in the winter of 1944 and, after a gallant defense and devastating counter-attacks, quickly turned the tables on the Germans and prepared for the push into the Third Reich itself. Yet the Germans had prepared a stubborn defense and the early months of 1945 saw bitter fighting as the Allies strove to cross the Rhine in the face of a vigorous German defense. In this pictorial history of the American troops involved, Christopher Anderson examines the troops involved and their uniforms and equipment. Six months of stubborn fighting had given the Americans experience and meant that regulation had often lost out to practical experience of warfare in Europe. This book examines the G.I. as he actually appeared on campaign.Read More
