The aim of this book is to discover the distinguishing features of these volunteers who donned British battledress: Belgians, Luxemburgers, Frenchmen, Dutchmen, Poles, Norwegians, Czechs and Danes and who were engaged from the Normandy beaches to well into the heart of the Reich. It is intended for all sorts of amateurs of history: collectors, model-makers, historians and reconstitution groups. Jean Bouchery is a specialist of 1944-1945 and as such he is one of the regular authors for the specialized press, especially Militaria Magazine and has taken part in a number of works published by Histoire and Collections. |
