Very nice reference material. Thank you! :dude
Something caught my eye on the summary of the first book, Allied and German Soldiers Normandy 1944: it's where it's written, "... American and British soldiers of course, but also Canadian, Polish, Belgian and French troops were to challenge those from the German Wehrmacht and SS, together with Russians donning the German uniform. ...". Did I get it right: Russians fighting alongside Germans?!? :idonno Does anyone know what this is about? Perhaps Ukranian troops?
I even went to a dictionary to ascertain what the verb "don" meant... This is weird news to me!
Cheers! B)
