Sturmgeschütze - "Die Panzerwaffe der Infanterie" - Buch

Among the most successful weapons of the German army from 1939 to 1945 were the German assault guns. Used at the focal points of the fight for the immediate support of the infantry, they became a dangerous enemy of enemy armored units.
Firepower and agility combined with low vehicle height and strong frontal armor were the key features of this weapon, which were especially feared by the enemy.
The two authors Franz Kurowski and Gottfried Tornau painstakingly created this one-of-a-kind documentary in both words and pictures, which provides a comprehensive picture of the effect and use of Storm Artillery and reports on the men who made this weapon a success. Gripping battle narrations based on the association's war diaries, as well as battle reports from members of the assault gun - from plain shooters to the leader of assault gun crews and assault gun divisions - as well as over 420 photos and location maps make this work a standard work on storm artillery. The picture and text documentation of the bearers of the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross and higher levels of this type of weapon completes this work.
