Here is a subject very little known. A Waffen-SS paratroop battalion was formed in the fall of 1943 to carry out special missions. The author, Luftwaffe (FRG) paratrooper captain, German, French and US patent, in the sixties and now a historian, offers us a detailed history in three volumes of nearly 400 pages each. The first volume is devoted to the operation against the Titoite troops in Yugoslavia, the second to the engagement in the Baltic countries and the third to the operations in Hungary, the Ardennes and the Oder bridgehead.
The 3-volume set, dedicated to this SS-Fallschirmjäger-Bataillon 500/600, offers a total documentation of more than a thousand photos.
