Panzertaktik

The German armored forces achieved legendary victories during World War II. The foundation for this was a combination of technical excellence and tactical skill, as Wolfgang Schneider expertly illustrates in this volume. The author has documented the operational principles of the German armored forces after analyzing all German tactical regulations since 1935, conducting extensive literature research, and engaging in conversations with veterans. He addresses the types of combat and the roles in battle, as well as crucial combat elements and the life of the crew in and with the tank.
