This fact has obscured skillful use of tactics employed by the German soldiers at the divisional level and below.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUntil now, this information has been sequestered in manuscript reports in various archives. In German Battle Tactics on the Eastern Front, 1941–1945, Steven H. Newton has retrieved, retranslated, and annotated the detailed tactical accounts of combat in Russia that German officers provided their American captors after the war.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this collection of ten essays, the Chief of Staff of the XXXXI Panzer Corps describes the final furious dash toward Moscow. One of the commanders of the relief force narrates the rescue of the troops trapped in the Demyansk pocket. A corps commander on Manstein's right flank at Kursk analyzes the tactical failures of the battle.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAnd, in one of the more controversial documents in the early cold war, the last commander of Army Group South recalls his futile attempt to interest General Patton in assisting in the war against the Soviets.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA wide variety of tactical situations--from winter warfare to desperate infantry defences, and unit types--from panzer divisions to cavalry brigades--are covered in this collection.\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail-description__body readmore\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-detail-description__body readmore\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eThis book is NEW and Unopened!
