Panzergrenadier Vs Us Armored Infantryman Av Steven J. (Author) Zaloga

<p><b>During World War II, the two pre-eminent mechanized infantry forces of the conflict, the German Panzergrenadier arm and the US Army’s armoured infantrymen, clashed in France and Belgium after the Normandy landings.</b><br><br>These engagements went on to profoundly influence the use of mechanized infantry in the post-war world. Drawing upon a variety of sources, this book focuses on three key encounters between July and December 1944 including during Operation <i>Cobra </i>and the Battle of the Bulge, and examines the origins, equipment, doctrine and combat record of both forces.<br><br>With specially commissioned full-colour artwork and maps, this study sheds light on the evolving nature of mechanized warfare at the height of World War II.</p>
