Description
Summary:In March 1945, the US War Department issued a restricted document called Handbook on German Military Forces. The restricted classification was removed in 1953, but this handbook has until now remained virtually unknown. It is a compendium of information on every aspect of Hitler's forces, which gives credence to the contention that by 1945 US Army Chief of Staff George G.Marshall may have known more about the German military than Hitler himself.
