Combat in Russian Forests and Swamps, Historical Study (German Report Series) [Dept. of the Army Pamphlet No. 20-231]
This study, prepared for the Historical Division, EUCOM, by a committee of former German generals and general staff officers, deals with the principles of combat in the vast woodlands and swamps of European Russia.
The main author and all other contributors drew upon their own extensive experience on the Eastern Front and that of their allies, especially the Finns, to present the actual lessons learned from the events of the war.
When the study was translated and prepared for publication, every effort was made to retain the point of view, the expressions, and even the prejudices of the original authors.
Originally published in July 1951 by the Dept. of the Army, Washington, D.C., as a soft cover booklet measuring 6 × 9 inches, this is the facsimile edition published by the Center of Military History, Washington, D.C., in 1982 and reprinted in 1986.
