The assault guns were the first armored vehicles to break up the Waffen-SS divisions early in their military history. This first volume presents, for the Leibstandarte SS Adolf Hitler, the Abteilung "Schönberger", online since 1941, which will become SS-Stug_ Abteilung "LSSAH", within which will begin to shine a young master of gear named Michael Wittmann. We then follow unity in all his fights.
Also in 1941, the SS-Stug-Battery "Reich", engaged since the Barbarossa operation, will be the embryo of the group of the assault cannon of the 2-SS-Panzer-Division "Das Reich", which we also see in operation.
We follow the development and engagement of the assault artillery groups of the first two divisions of the Waffen-SS, with their histories, testimonials and many, many unpublished photos, including some great pictures of the craft as always in the work of Pierre Tiquet.
Other volumes will follow to present the assault cannon units of the other divisions of the Waffen-SS
