Osprey Men-at-Arms 420 : The Waffen-SS (4) : 24. to 38. Divisions, & Volunteer Legions

In 1944-45 the Waffen-SS formed many nominal 'divisions' from a motley range of sources, their battlefield value was as varied as their backgrounds. The best were built around existing Western European volunteer regiments; some, raised from Central Europeans and Russians, were strong in numbers but weak in morale; some were of negligible size, scraped together from remnants and trainees; and some were sinister 'anti-partisan' gangs, assembled from the military dregs of the Eastern Front. Illustrated with rare photographs from private collections and meticulous colour artwork, this fourth and final book in this sequence details the organisation, uniforms and insignia, and summarises their battle records. Text by Gordon Williamson with illustrations by Stephen Andrew.
