French Language book. The True Story of Panzer Officer KURT SAMETREITER The first PHOTO ALBUM in a new collection retracing the military careers of German tankers during the Second World War through their personal albums and previously unpublished memorabilia. In this first instalment, you will discover the life of Kurt Sametreiter, a young Austrian who enlisted at the age of 15 and was awarded the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross in 1943. He became a Waffen-SS Panzer officer until his death in 2017. This book recounts the exceptional journey of Kurt Sametreiter, but also that of Heinz Klose, a young man from Danzig who became a non-commissioned officer and was killed in action on the Russian front in 1944. The intertwined destinies of these two young men, seemingly separated by everything, Kurt from Austria and Heinz from Northeast Germany, whom the war brought together and separated at the same time. Having become friends and brothers in arms in the same tank destroyer company of the "Leibstandarte SS Adolf Hitler", Kurt would become Heinz's brother-in-law by marrying his sister Ulla. We will follow Kurt Sametreiter and his friend Heinz step by step during the war, from the very first days of the conflict with the German intervention in the Danzig region, through the Campaigns in the West (France) then in the Balkans, the Eastern Front from 1941 to 1944, the Battle of Normandy and until the very end of the Second World War in Europe. For all military history and history enthusiasts and specialists in German mechanized units of the Second World War.
