Allgemeine-SS
: The Commands, Units and Leaders of the General SS
(Schiffer Military History)
Mark C. Yerger
The commands, units and leaders of the General SS are finally compiled
into a single detailed reference book for both the historian and SS memorabilia
collector. This complete volume begins with an explanation of the twelve
administrative and command main offices involving the SS to include the
development, components and functions of each, as well as their respective
office chiefs. The following section explores the most powerful posts in
the SS, the Higher SS and Police Leaders, along with the subordinate SS
and Police Leaders found in occupied territories - both the commands and
the individual holder of these posts are examined in depth. The SS Main
Districts are covered next including all their various subordinate components,
title changes, development, commanders and chiefs of staff. The more than
forty SS Districts follow, detailed in a similar format. Examining the
more than one-hundred and twenty-five SS Foot Regiments in the General
SS, the names and ranks of the hundreds of commaners, as well as details
of unit location changes, popular and honor titles as well as other data
for each are within a separate chapter. Finally, the elite SS Riding Districts
and Regiments are covered similarly. Career biographies are included for
more than two hundred senior SS commanders, many of whom served portions
of their career in the Waffen-SS, Polizei, SD and other facets of Himmler's
commands. The biographical data for individuals alone adds vast detail
to this fascinating topic. Along with more than 120 rare photos of SS senior
ranking officers and seven maps, a detailed index allows referencing of
individual commands or personalities. Amazon.com

Armor
Battles of the Waffen SS, 1943-45 (Stackpole Military History Series)
by Will Fey
Book Description: Real war stories told by real soldiers for
readers who want to know what it was like to be in the thick of battle.
These are riveting combat narratives about the weapons and warriors of
some of history's bloodiest conflicts. Each book is a gritty, action-oriented
account of life and death in the heat of battle. Original titles as well
as long out-of-print gems will explore conflicts ranging from the blood-soaked
fields of the Civil War to the current war on terror and everything in
between. The books are published as high-quality and affordable trade paperbacks,
making them terrific editions for all who are interested in military history.
The Waffen SS were considered the elite of the German armed forces in
the Second World War and were involved in almost continuous combat. From
the sweeping tank battle of Kursk on the Russian front to the bitter fighting
among the hedgerows of Normandy and the last great offensive in the Ardennes,
forever immortalized in history as the Battle of the Bulge, these men and
their tanks made history.

Black
Edelweiss: A Memoir of Combat and Conscience by a Soldier of the Waffen-SS
by Johann Voss
Book Description: Originally written while the author was a
prisoner of the US Army in 1945-46, Black Edelweiss is a boon to serious
historians and WWII buffs alike. In a day in which most memoirs are written
at half a century's distance, the former will be gratified by the author's
precise recall facilitated by the chronologically short-range (a matter
of one to seven years) at which the events were captured in writing. Both
will appreciate and enjoy the abundantly detailed, exceptionally accurate
combat episodes.
Even more than the strictly military narrative, however, the author
has crafted a searingly candid view into his own mind and soul. As such,
Black Edelweiss is much more than a "ripping yarn" or a low-level military
history. Black Edelweiss joins not only the growing body of German military
memoirs, but the more select, more narrowly-focused group of personal memoirs
by other Waffen-SS enlisted men. Beyond the microcosmic view of combat
these books relate - to the extent that they are honest and candid - such
books are important for what they can reveal about their authors' motivations
and reflections on those impulses and their consequences. To date, these
works differ significantly....

Chronicle
of the 7 : Panzer-Kompanie I. SS-Panzer Division : 'Leibstandarte'
by Ralf Tiemann
This chronicle of the 7.Panzerkompanie follows the unit history of
a "Leibstandarte" tank company from its creation in 1942 to the end of
World War II. Compiled by former company commander and German Cross in
Gold holder Ralf Tiemann, the detailed text relies on both official documentation
and the personal recollections of numerous unit veterans. An individual
level narrative covers the intense first combats for Kharkov in early 1943
and the summer Kursk engagements later the same year. In 1944 the unit
engaged the Western Allies after D-Day. Illustrated with private photos
made available from Waffen-SS veteran contributions, the detailed appendices
provide a complete roster of all commanders, platoon leaders, senior NCOs,
award winners and those killed in action. Exacting cartographic material
allows the reader to follow all engagements in this first unit history
of a "Leibstandarte" tank company available in English

Comrades
to the End : The 4th SS Panzer-Grenadier Regiment 'Der Fuhrer' 1938-1945
the History of a German-Austrian Fighting Unit
by Otto Weidinger
Written by Swords to the Knight's Cross holder and last regimental
commander Otto Weidinger, Comrades to the End is the complete history of
SS-Regiment "Der FŸhrer." One of the original infantry regiments of the
pre-war SS-VerfŸgungstruppe (Special Purpose Troops), "Der FŸhrer" was
formed in 1938 and fought throughout the war as a component of Division
"Das Reich." Being among the most successful and decorated regiments of
the Waffen-SS, this complete history was written with the full assistance
of four highly decorated regimental commanders. In addition to Otto Weidinger,
portions of the text were contributed by Georg Keppler (Knight's Cross),
Sylvester Stadler (Swords to the Knight's Cross) and Otto Kumm (Swords
to the Knights Cross). From its creation from primarily Austrian recruits
through the Western Campaign, to the bitter battles in Russia where it
was almost completely destroyed, the authors explain the engagements of
this famous unit in full detail. Later it fought in Normandy and finally
in Austria at the end of the war as one of the last fully battle ready
units of the Waffen-SS. This classic study is now available for the first
time in a complete English edition. With a preface by famed Waffen-SS commander
Paul Hausser, the detailed text is illustrated by more than twenty regimental
maps in addition to photographs. Amazon.com

Das
Reich : The Military Role of the 2nd SS Divison
James Lucas
The 2nd SS Division was an elite, highly trained, volunteer fighting
force, the premier division of the Waffen SS and far removed from the more
familiar SS Nazi Police role. Driven always by the military virtues of
courage, duty and loyalty, it saw action in some of the bloodiest battles
of the war, in particular on the Eastern Front. It fought a hard war, suffered
terrible casualties, and set new standards of battlefield excellence. Through
extensive research, James Lucas tells the story of close quarter hand-to-hand
combat, of commanders who led from the front, and of camaraderie and unit
pride.
