Unlike other historical depictions of the fall of the Third Reich,
German Accounts from the Dying Days of the Third Reich presents the
authentic voices of those German soldiers who fought on the front
line. Throughout we are witness to the kind of bravery, ingenuity
and, ultimately, fear that we are so familiar with from the many
Allied accounts of this time. Their sense of confusion and terror
is palpable as Nazi Germany finally collapses in May 1945, with
soldiers fleeing to the American victors instead of the Russians in
the hope of obtaining better treatments as a prisoner of war. This
collection of first-hand accounts include the stories of German
soldiers fighting the Red Army on the Eastern Front; of Horst
Messer, who served on the last East Prussian panzer tank but was
captured and spent four years in Russian captivity at Riga; of Hans
Obermeier, who recounts his capture on the Czech front and escape
from Siberia; and a moving account of an anonymous Wehrmacht
soldier in Slovakia given orders to execute Russian prisoners.
