The second volume examining the German infantryman before and during World War 2, focusing on post-1941 training, weapons, equipment, combat experiences and medical care.

The 'faceless' German soldier who struggled through bitter fighting up to and including Stalingrad retains his identity both as a human being and as a vital part of the Wehrmacht's order of battle. Containing a full array of previously unpublished photographs taken by German soldiers during the invasion of Russia this book shows in superb detail daily life and duties, the soldiers themselves, and combat action.

David Westwood, Ph.D., was a freelance military historian who studied at RMA Sandhurst. He wrote a series of books on the organisation of the German Army, concentrating on the years from 1933 to 1945 and has previously researched orders of battle on the German army of World War II.

Elizabeth Sharp trained in Fine Art at the Leicester College of Art and Technology, UK, in the 1960s. She has been a full member of the Society of Equestrian Artists for many years, and has served on the Executive Committee of that society for several of these. Elizabeth has produced artwork for clients from all over the world.
