The Waffen-SS in Normandy 1
volume 1 : June 1944, Caen sector
The Waffen-SS fielded six divisions during the battle of Normandy, as well as two heavy tank battalions. But they arrived in a disordered fashion and were thrown into battle piecemeal as soon as they arrived on the front. Due to the lack of infantry divisions, the Waffen-SS units were given defensive roles and could never launch an effective counteroffensive. The battles between them and the Allies were some of the ferocious face-to-face contests of the campaign. Extensively illustrated with photographs, tank profiles, maps.
