The years 1915-17 saw the Imperial German Army, like the other
Great War combatants, forced to adapt to the new realities of
static trench warfare. Prewar uniforms and equipment had to be
modified, for reasons of both utility and economy; on battlefields
ruled by machine guns and artillery the steel helmet reappeared,
and masks to protect against the terrifying new weapon of poison
gas. The fashionable cavalry regiments became irrelevant on the
Western Front; many were dismounted to join the infantry, while new
types of unit usurped their prestige - assault battalions, and the
air corps. This second volume in a three-part sequence offers a
mass of detail on organization, uniforms and insignia, illustrated
with rare photographs and meticulous colour artwork.
