Presented here are the biographies of the 130 men of the
Fallschirmjager-Hitler's elite paratroopers, who won the Knight's
Cross and its higher grades. These men fought on nearly every front
during the Second World War, from their first action in Denmark in
April 1940, to their last major battle at Monte Cassino. A total of
twenty-four Knight's Crosses were awarded to Fallschirmjager troops
during the battles of Monte Cassino and in the airborne invasion of
Crete with the remainder awarded during the fighting in France,
Belgium, Holland, Italy, Russia, and at least one in North Africa.
These tough, elite soldiers parachuted behind enemy lines and were
one of the most successful units during the Second World War. The
book gives details of their promotions and other medals and
decorations and is well illustrated with over 200 photographs.
