Even when Western Allied troops gained a foothold in Normandy,
World War II in Europe was far from over. The route to Germany's
interior and the Nazis final surrender was long, arduous and
blood-stained. The Wehrmacht's stubborn resistance and the shocking
losses suffered by US, British, Canadian and 'Free European' troops
meant that the Allies had to adapt and refine small-unit tactics,
battle-drills, and their use of weapons and munitions. The troops
who finally met up with the Red Army in Germany were a very
different fighting force to the one that struggled up the beaches
of northern France. This book offers a comprehensive guide to the
late-war Allied troops, exploring their uniforms, equipment,
organization and tactics. Detailed description and accurate colour
pictures illustrate the means by which the Allied troops on the
ground evolved to the point of winning the war on the Western
Front.
