A Collector's Guide to the History and Uniforms of Das Heer: The German Army 1933-45

Rating:
Summary: Very Informative
Review: Though the book does a good job of laying out the chain of command, army structure,rank structure,and a history of how the army came to be what it was in that period, thats not really what I was personally looking for in a book about uniforms. It does have general descriptions of shoulder straps and their meanings as well as some general issue and commonly seen decorations, but these are all in black and white photos. I think a paragraph was given to headwear and footwear. It focused mainly on the tunic and its trimmings. Half the book was history, half pictoral descriptions.
