Written by Swords to the Knight's Cross holder and last regimental
commander Otto Weidinger, Comrades to the End is the complete
history of SS-Regiment "Der Fuhrer." One of the original infantry
regiments of the pre-war SS-Verfugungstruppe (Special Purpose
Troops), "Der Fuhrer" was formed in 1938 and fought throughout the
war as a component of Division "Das Reich." Being among the most
successful and decorated regiments of the Waffen-SS, this complete
history was written with the full assistance of four highly
decorated regimental commanders. In addition to Otto Weidinger,
portions of the text were contributed by Georg Keppler (Knight's
Cross), Sylvester Stadler (Swords to the Knight's Cross) and Otto
Kumm (Swords to the Knights Cross). From its creation from
primarily Austrian recruits through the Western Campaign, to the
bitter battles in Russia where it was almost completely destroyed,
the authors explain the engagements of this famous unit in full
detail. Later it fought in Normandy and finally in Austria at the
end of the war as one of the last fully battle ready units of the
Waffen-SS. This classic study is now available for the first time
in a complete English edition. With a preface by famed Waffen-SS
commander Paul Hausser, the detailed text is illustrated by more
than twenty regimental maps in addition to photographs.
