Albania, Czechoslovakia, Greece, Hungary & Yugoslavia

Author: David Littlejohn

David Littlejohn’s acclaimed Foreign Legions of the Third Reich series remains one of the most respected references on the foreign volunteer formations that served alongside Germany during the Second World War. Volume 3 examines the military and political units recruited from Albania, Czechoslovakia, Greece, Hungary and Yugoslavia, detailing their formation, organization, uniforms, insignia and operational history.

Illustrated throughout with period photographs and specially commissioned colour artwork, this volume provides collectors, historians and military researchers with an invaluable reference to the lesser-known foreign volunteer units of the Third Reich. Littlejohn’s meticulous research explores the political background behind recruitment, the structure of each formation, and their service on various fronts during the war.

An essential addition to the library of anyone interested in Axis military history, Waffen-SS foreign volunteers, or the uniforms and insignia of European military formations during World War II.
