In true Images of War Series style this authoritative book tells the unique story of Hitlers Luftwaffe Flak & Field Divisions in words & rare images. From the outset of WW2 Go rings Luftwaffe Flak units saw extensive fighting with their 2cm 3.7cm & deadly 8.8cm anti-aircraft guns. By the time of the Nazis invasion of Russia Luftwaffe ground forces had been expanded & were being used in both the army support & air roles. After initial success on the Eastern Front turned to stalemate & huge losses Hitler ordered the raising of Luftwaffe Field Divisions to bolster the Army. These were initially under Go rings command but in late 1943 were handed over to the Army & re-organised as standard infantry divisions (of three two-battalion rifle regiments) retaining Luftwaffe designations. The most famous was the elite Hermann Go ring Divisions which was re-organised as a Panzer Division. By 1944 there were no less than twenty-one Luftwaffe Field Divisions plus many similar regiments fighting on all fronts. Of all German anti-tank weapons the 8.8cm gun was the most feared & destructive. Luftwaffe Flak & Field Divisions 1939-1945 describes the evolution of this unique element of the Nazi war machine by means of clear text & superb images & will appeal to modellers war-gamers & Second World War enthusiasts alike ...
