Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Paperback. The armoured reconnaissance units were the spearheads of Hitler's Panzer divisions, moving stealthily ahead of the tanks to locate the enemy. Otto Henning's armoured car unit of the elite Panzer-Lehr-Division fought throughout the campaigns in the West in 1944 and 1945, arriving in Normandy a few weeks before D-Day and finally surrendering in the Ruhr pocket in mid-April 1945. Henning describes the difficulties that reconnaissance forces such as his faced in the close terrain of the Normandy bocage and the threat posed by the Allies complete control of the air. He experienced first-hand the devastation wrought by the Panzer Ace Michael Wittmann's lone Tiger tank against the British 7th Armoured Division at Villers Bocage, as well as ensured the chaos and demoralisation of the Germans retreat across France. After the Battle of the Bulge and the final fighting in western Germany, Henning surrendered and endured terrible conditions in a prisoner-of-war camp until he escaped in 1947. This is a fascinating and often harrowing account of the final campaigns in Western Europe. AUTHOR: Otto Henning was posted to a Panzers unit in 1941. From March 1942 until April 1943, he served with a motorized reconnaissance unit of Rommel's famed Afrika Korps. From 1944 Henning fought in Western Europe with the elite Panzer-Lehr-Division, eventually commanding an armoured reconnaissance unit. Captured by US forces in April 1945 he finally escaped from France in 1947 to re-join his family in the Russian zone of Germany. A rare memoir by a German armoured reconnaissance patrol commander in the elite Panzer-Lehr-Division.
