French Language Book: THE TRUE STORY OF THE 12TH SS PANZER DIVISION "HITLERJUGEND" in Normandy, 1944. After decades of research and with the assistance of over a hundred veterans of the division, the author presents the true story of the 12th SS Panzer Division "Hitlerjugend" from 1943 to 1944. This first part of Volume 1 reviews the histories of the division's constituent units (Division Staff, SS-Pz.Gren.Rgt. 25, SS-Pz.Gren.Rgt. 26, SS-Pz.Pi.Btl. 12, SS-Pz.Aufkl.Abt. 12, SS-Pz.Art.Rgt. 12, SS-Flak-Abt. 12, SS-Pz.Nachr.Abt. 12), tracing their development from their formation in Belgium in the summer of 1943 through to June 1944 in Normandy. It also covers the entire process behind the creation of this Panzer division. What was the true nature of this unit—nicknamed the "Baby Division" by the Allies? From the initial concept of forming a major unit composed entirely of Hitler Youth volunteers barely 17 years of age, to the division achieving operational readiness, discover the training and indoctrination methods employed by Fritz Witt—who, at 35, became one of the German army's youngest division commanders. How did he and his officers succeed in transforming these teenagers into soldiers who would prove to be formidable combatants during the fighting in Normandy in the summer of 1944? A 496-page reference work that is essential for a better understanding of the Battle of Normandy. Features an exceptional collection of over 800 photographs and documents—including more than 500 never-before-seen items (period photographs, portraits, Soldbuch records, archival documents, etc.). A must-have for specialists on German units deployed in Normandy in 1944 and for military history enthusiasts!
