French Volunteers of the Waffen-SS
by Richard Landwehr
A Siegrunen/Merriam Press Original Publication
Siegrunen Monograph SR4
History of the Frenchmen who volunteered to fight for the Waffen-SS against the communist forces of Soviet Russia.
In their brief history the soldiers of the French Waffen-SS demonstrated their fiber as soldiers and human beings in a series of hopeless engagements on the Eastern Front against vastly superior enemy forces.
Wherever they were deployed, they fought with maximum effectiveness and courage despite the odds against them.
Almost two-thirds of French SS troops died on the battlefield or in captivity.
