This book is a detailed history of the 27th Waffen-SS Division
"Langemarck," the Flemish volunteer SS combat formation.
"Langemarck" was employed chiefly on the Eastern Front, first in
the Ukraine in early 1944, then participating with a combat group
in Estonia along the Tannenberg Line in the summer of 1944,
alongside other European Waffen-SS volunteers subordinate to
III.SS-Pz.Korps--covering themselves with glory and suffering heavy
losses. After transformation into a division, "Langemarck"
participated in the final fighting on the Pomeranian and Oder
fronts, continuing to fight under extreme conditions, and always
holding their assigned positions, counterattacking whenever
possible. Most of the Flemish volunteers were able to surrender to
the Anglo-American forces, thus escaping capture by the Russians.
This complete treatment fills a large gap in Waffen-SS history.
Informative appendices relate to the unit's operational history and
also provide details on some of its members, as well as uniforms
and insignia.
