Review (PDF) Uniforms And Insignia Of The Grossdeutschland Division, Vol. 2
These ground-breaking volumes present, for the first time, a comprehensive view of the World War II German Army's most elite formation: Grossdeutschland. Exceptional detail of rare uniforms and unique insignia are woven with Grossdeutschland's history and development from an independent motorised regiment in 1939 to a panzergrenadier division within a corps that adopted its name in 1944. Its two closest sister units, the Wachbataillon Berlin and the Fuhrer Begleit Battalion are also covered in the same superb level of detail. Awards, decorations, portraits and personal effects of common soldiers and noted personalities, covering every arm of service within the units, are presented in over 3,000 spectacular colour and black-and-white images.

These books are fantastic. The best I have ever bought. I was able to buy all three volumes and am extremely glad I did. They are hard back, great front and back covers. The presentation of each book is excellent. Extremely clear photos with captions, operational histories, full page color photos of uniforms, decorations, badges, cuff titles, award documents, shoulder boards, caps, breast eagles, etc. Volume 2 covers cufftitles, awards and documents, Die Wache and history of Grossdeutschland from April 1939 to 8 May 1945. The pics are very clear and extremely detailed. Volume 2 is 343 pages.
