As elite troops, the German Fallschirmjager (paratroopers) were
regularly engaged in front line combat during the Second World War.
Their famed actions such as the fighting in Scandinavia, the taking
of the Belgian fortress Eden-Emal in May 1940, and the Battle for
Crete just a year later, have given them the reputation of being
determined, courageous and loyal soldiers. This book covers the
early years of the Fallschirmstruppen (paratroop units) before the
beginning of the war, until the height of their successes in 1941,
after which the Fallschirmjager were more often deployed in a more
'traditional' way, even though high-risk actions (such as at Monte
Cassino, the Gran Sasso Raid) allowed them to reconnect once more
with their glorious past.
