Anyone interested in the personalities and equipment used by this elite unit would not be disappointed if they purchased this volume.             Totenkopf4 reviews Charles Trang Editions Heimdal, 2007 It's in english... First things first, it's written in english, buy with confidence, one of the few Heimdal volumes to be so. It's a massive book (480 pages) with hundreds of photos of the Totenkopf (the premier Waffen SS Division of all time and one of the toughest), the one about which Zhukov once said, "everywhere I went I found the Totenkopf". The despective editorial comes as no surprise, as to this day Waffen ...             Kerberos: The Definitive Guide6 reviews Jason Garman O'Reilly Media, Inc., 2003 Will Get You Up and Running (1stEd) First I would like to justify my 5 star rating. This book helped me out of a nasty multi-homed host and DNS problem when no other source could. Without this book I would have been troubleshooting this issue for days. I feel the book has paid for itself. However, I wouldn't consider this "The Definitive Guide." It lacks documentation on the krb5.conf configuration file. I found myself ...             Omaha Beach: 6/6/19446 reviews Georges Bernage Heimdal, 2002 A vivid visual look at a famous battle Not long ago, I read and reviewed Joseph Balkoski's "Omaha Beach" and somewhat lamented the absence of really adequate maps to better show what had happened, linking the small unit actions with the bigger picture. I must say tha Georges Bernage's book is the perfect companion to Balkoski's, supplying highly vivid maps and photographs to amplify the words of Balkoski's narrative. And it ...             The D.Day Landing Beaches: The Guide1 review Georges Bernage Heimdal, 2001 Hit the Beach Running... I found this book to be an excellent resource for understanding the obstacles the Allied forces faced when storming the beaches. There are two pages devoted to various beach obstacles. There are also two pages devoted to St-Mere-Englis, including a map. Modellers of World War II will definately find this book useful. It is a quick and enjoyable read.             KARSTJAGER (1943-1945): Guerilla and anti guerrilla in Ozah (1942-1945) Sergio corbatti and Marco Nara Heimdal, 2008 This is the illustrated history of the Waffen-SS 24.

I would like to echo C.D. Turner's praise for Trang's Die Liebstandarte..It is most excellent..and merely because it is a photographic compendium! The previous criticisms of this work's French language text lose sight of the fact that this book was meant primarily as a PHOTOGRAPHIC chronical and NOT as a comprehensive written history. As a long time student and amateur historian of the Waffen SS; ...             TIGER !: The Tiger Tank in the Eastern Front, in Normandy and in Germany 1942,45 Stephan Cazenave and Rudiger Warnick Heimdal, 2008 The Tiger tank was the greatest tank of World War II. Officially designated the Panzerkampfwagen VI Ausfuhrung H, it was nicknamed the Tiger by Ferdinand Porsche. Brought into use in late 1942, the Tiger tank represented a new approach to tank design in that it maximised armour protection and firepower at the expense of mobility. This is the first publication dedicated solely to the Tiger tanks of the Schwere Panzer Kompanie (Heavy Armor ...             LEIBSTANDARTE VOL 2: 1943-1945 Charles Trang Heimdal, 2008 This second volume of Leibstandarte covers the period between 1943 and 1945.

This book relates the story of this ingenious container, bringing together in one collection, documents, many colour photographs (particularly valuable to collectors), as well as different points of view on this topic from a wide ...             1st Us Army1 review Georges Bernage Heimdal, 2004 a new look at a famous campaign The US First Army was the overall command for American troops in France from D-Day until the breakout from Normandy when Patton's Third Army was added to the mix.

Perhaps the lone Waffen SS division to see action solely on the western front makes it's history all the more absorbing.
