Here is a very poorly understood subject. A battalion of paratroopers in the Waffen-SS was formed in the fall of 1943 to carry out special missions. The author, a paratrooper captain of the Luftwaffe (FRG), offers us a detailed history in three volumes of 400 pages each. The first volume is devoted to the operation against Tito troops in Yugoslavia, the second to the commitment in the Baltics, and the third for operations in Hungary, the Ardennes, and in the Oder bridgehead.
The ensemble, dedicated to SS-Fallschirmjager-Battalion 500/600 offers a complete documentation of over a thousand pictures.
